-
T.C. (@bestbatmachine) reported@hbomaxhelp @hbomax The PPV stream would not work on my LG smart TV. It did work on my phone, but I'm not watching on a tiny screen. Any help would be appreciated
-
Josh Hayes (@perpetual_hayes) reported@hbomaxhelp The audio for #AEWRevolution has never synced up with the video. The problem seems to have been there since the main show started after the Zero Hour pre-show. I’ve tried exiting the app and restarting the show a few times, fast-forwarding, pausing, etc.
-
Synchronicity (@74Synchronicity) reportedDear @hbomax and @NOWTV - why can't I download The Pitt onto my iPad to watch on a flight tomorrow? Is it a glitch with the new platform on Now TV, is it a problem with this series or is this simply unavailable for download for Now TV Subscribers?
-
Andey E (@AndeyRay) reported@hbomax why the hell is @dennyhamlin on board camera just facing him. Show us the racing and what’s out front. This is terrible @NASCAR

Jason Ader (@TheJasinator) reportedHow to save Paramount and Warner Brothers? Rebrand HBO Replace @paramountplus and @hbomax with simply HBO which stands for... Home Box Office. HBO Netflix YouTube This should be the big 3. Studios have become silos and force people to take sides. YouTube and Netflix, even Amazon, are not studios, they are brands. The names have become the product. Netflix is used for streaming like Kleenex is used for tissues. HBO could easily be the "generic" rebrand people reach for. Already known for high-quality TV, it's simple and self explanatory without having to ask, what does Paramount own again? What does Warner Brothers own? Plus and Max descriptions are 20th century marketing. Lose them or lose the business. IMHO 😎

Chuck 🇺🇦 🌈 🏳️🌈 PLEASE, NO DM's (@1TibetanMastiff) reportedHey @hbomaxhelp Subscribed to HBO Max to watch live March Madness and all I get is buffering. This is just the first four. Can't wait until I can't watch tomorrow when there are so many games streaming. Maybe fix this Take March Madness from me and I'll not forgive or forget.

CoaCoalt (@Coalt81) reported@hbomaxhelp Hi, I am writing to report a persistent issue with the Max app on my Apple TV 4K. Despite having a Premium subscription, my video quality remains stuck at 720p, while I should be getting 4K UHD or 1080p.

M̷s̷ ̷N̷e̷r̷d̷ ̷W̷o̷r̷l̷d̷ ̷O̷r̷d̷e̷r̷ (@ChibiRenjiLover) reported@hbomax it sucks that I can only stream the @AEW ppvs on one device at a time. I work nights so it'd be nice to watch from work while my husband watches at home... 😒😒😒
-
Gary Bibby (@garybibby) reported@NOWTV your trailer about @hbomax coming together has a spoiler from Heated Rivalry in it, please fix that.
-

-
✨VANILLA SC👀PER ✨💮 (@VanillaScooper) reported@hbomaxhelp @AEW @hbomax How do I request a credit for this “issue” of yours? Because me paying my $40 and y’all taking it wasn’t an issue.
-
Steveg561 (@SteveG561) reported@TonyKhan this deal you’ve made with HBO has made it impossible to watch your PPVs. @hbomax has the worst customer service I’ve ever seen in my life. Literally no help or assistance whatsoever to give me access to the PPV or to get my money back after waiting hours. This is bs.
-
sam (@sam720396290005) reported@Sammycat41 @addievervale @hbomax subtitles are bad for me too. they’re always a few minutes ahead of whats actually happening on screen which is a shame. could just be a glitch for today because they just released it here? it might be better in a bit idk
-
Frank (@t3hfrankie) reported@hbomaxhelp @DatMane2k Can't watch AEW Revolution 2026 replay on HBO MAX. Its just a black screen with loading circle. Tried 5 times and can watch other stuff on Max just fine. I paid for PPV, so plz fix
-
🐈⬛ (@Sammycat41) reported@addievervale @hbomax Do your subtitles work? Mine don't and my mum can't hear the Pitt is the only reason I paid for this subscription
-
Matt Smith (@msmith850) reportedDon’t forget, today is @hbomax day. Download, sign in/up, stream @tntsports and loads more 🎥 📺

Christy Massey (@Christy82635445) reported@hbomax @HBO HBO does no shows worth watching today!!! Far left radical agenda executives pick terrible things to watch!!! Hahaha. Turned down Yellowstone. Thats how stupid these executives are today!!!!
-
Sdot 😵💫 (@The_StevenHo) reported@hbomaxhelp @AEWonTV @StreamOnMax There was no make good and watching the show live was impossible. Almost as impossible as getting to talk to a real human instead of the chat bot on your help page.
-
Myke (@DeQuan81) reported@aaronrift @hbomax I got the error and backed out and went back and it's been fine all night.
-
linds (@bluth_lindsay) reported@msmooonny @hbomax 😭😭😭😭😭 it’s not even about the episodes it’s about supriya ganesh leaving 😞 but dr mohan really has been given the worst treatment this season idk it’s a mess all around
-
hayley (@bruisedhoney) reported@addievervale @hbomax sign in first babe
-
Kenny Pordon (@KennyPordon) reported@aaronrift @hbomax I had a lot of problems with authenticating devices as well. My TV was the last that worked. Ruined opening match for me. PPVs looks amazing in Dolby Vision, so I'll stick with it. I'd make Dynasty $19.99 for subscribers and purchasers of Revolution. Make it right.
-
George G (@GeorgeG92483038) reported@hbomaxhelp I can barely stream anything and watch it. Keep having to stop and start because the audio is not in sync with the video. Please fix this issue.
