    @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.

    The HBO Max feed of AEW Revolution continues to have audio syncing issues nearly 45 minutes in, after Zero Hour was completely inaccessible. Meanwhile, Tony Khan has muted the replies to his live tweets... #AEWRevolution @hbomaxhelp

    @hbomax you people have got to fix the issue of the awful loop of doom while trying to sign in with Hulu. It’s happened to me more than once and I finally gave up. Nothing should be this difficult

  • Ger_Pres
    Gerald Preston (@Ger_Pres) reported

    FFS, how hard is it for @tntsports to tell people what to do with the new @hbomax app? Do we open a new account with HBO Max? Do we login to HBO with our existing TNT username/password? Come on, throw us a bone here.

    @JayBeasta @hbomaxhelp I had to go and order it on Prime because we're 40 mins in and no fix. HBO assist has been useless and said they'll "email me" with a specialist, when asking for a refund.

    @hbomaxhelp @JdotChilds The sound during the commercials is just awful. Streaming HBO Max March Madness games. Please change the commercial, it has a very annoying sound.

    @hbomax fix the @AEW stream. We're an hour in at this point and can't get it to work. So disappointed.

    AEW Revolution on HBO audio issues still not working after spending $40… multi multimillion dollar company right now are we serious. How do we get refunds @HBO @hbomaxhelp

    @marykayfabe @hbomax @AEW Was able to get it to work on a laptop. Usually we watch on the Max app on Xbox, but it wouldn’t work. Never had that issue before. Hopefully it’s an isolated incident

    @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

    Virtual Photographer...sometimes (@mangAman_vp) reported

    @hbomax - Might be a new stream service here in the UK, but damn it's awful. Just watched Batman v Superman, and the quality was like bad dvd quality, and it changed aspect ratio...frequently. Never, ever had that in my life. 1 month sub, quit.

  • JOECOOKE5
    joe cooke (@JOECOOKE5) reported

    @hbomaxhelp I don’t believe it’s a technical issue. It’s just the crowd noise is louder than the announcers.

  • JimmyMidyette
    Jimmy Midyette 🇺🇸 (@JimmyMidyette) reported

    @JeremyH418 @hbomax @jk_rowling I doubt it seriously. Between the wokesters who will actively cancel their HBO accounts over it and the distressingly large swath of people freaking out about Snape’s skin color, I suspect it will have trouble finding a big audience.

  • TheGr8Babu
    TheGreatBabu (@TheGr8Babu) reported

    Hey @hbomax y’all need to fix your app! At the very least, add a restart option to episodic shows. Spoilers and having to hit rewind is just bad UX!

    @wbd @HBO @hbomax Congratulations! Thanks to you, the entire Harry Potter franchise has become a laughingstock. Every day there are mocking edits, and you don't care about these complaints at all! You're awful, absolutely awful!
