    @HBOMaxHelp most of my problems have been streaming on my MacBook and dropping when trying to go between episodes. also happens occasionally if i move tabs

  • BildaPhiNam Bil da Phi_nam (@BildaPhiNam) reported

    @hbomax No I can even open your app. I no longer care if you have quality content, if you don't fix your playback issues by August 7th, I'm unsubscribing. I'm not paying for a streaming service I'm unable to use.

  • DamnboyAintRite DBAR (@DamnboyAintRite) reported

    @GHOST_LETTERS @hbomax Then I would guess it's on the server side of things. My suggestion is to call HBOmax and complain. Be sure to include that you rebooted all hardware and also persistently let them know all other streaming services work. HBOmax is still a relatively new service, so I expected it.

  • WayThicker WayThicker 🍑 (@WayThicker) reported

    Sure wish @hbomax would fix their damn app for PS5. This error message every 30mins is annoying.

    everyday i think “maybe today is the day the @hbomax app won’t crash on me every 10 minutes” and everyday i’m proved wrong 🙃

  • GHOST_LETTERS Sält Līfe (@GHOST_LETTERS) reported

    @DamnboyAintRite @hbomax I appreciate the help. Netflix is working fine. That’s why I didn’t think it was the wifi. It’s just the HBO. So I reset the modem but it’s still doing the same thing. Back and forth from the two screens I posted.

  • keyworldwiide UY Scuti (@keyworldwiide) reported

  • aREALjonah Jonah Gregory (@aREALjonah) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp My account was just hacked. I use the Hulu sign in method and already changed that password but there is now a different email and password associated with my HBOMax account. Can't find contact info on your site.

  • scruffy_fox Scruffy the Fox (@scruffy_fox) reported

    Is anyone else having problems using @hbomax and @paramountplus on a PlayStation 4? Getting error messages every few minutes or even every few seconds, preventing me from watching even a full TV episode. Either they just don't like PS4 very much, or these are buggy af.

  • dkruel dkruel (@dkruel) reported

    @hbomax @HBOMaxHelp New subscriber here and within 2 days, my password and email were changed and I cannot access my account. I spoke to a rep on the phone and also in a chat and issue is still not resolved. Can you please help?

    @HBOMaxHelp @fsanders Definitely a HBO issue. Why don’t y’all go to the app and play it instead of asking for account info.

  • joshfostr Joshua Foster (@joshfostr) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp the app is not working on my Samsung tv. Can you help? Deleted it, restarted tv, etc.
