TheTruBilliam43 (@TheTruBilliam43) reported@hbomaxhelp I been trying to watch the @AEW Revolution PPV on HBO MAX and between the audio issue and now the streaming issues. This is one of the worst purchases I ever got for a pay-per-view

Tommy (@roidrage11) reported@hbomaxhelp @stabbinfresh No help

Jason Ader (@TheJasinator) reportedHow to save Paramount and Warner Brothers? Rebrand #DavidEllison 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 😎

-
Daryl Morty👑 (@DarylMorty) reported@hbomax Can yall fix the glitch with your app? It’ll play an ad and start it at an earlier part of the movie. Then you’ll have to fast forward it just to get to the ad you were originally at and have to watch it again. Been this way for months.
-
Dingus McKringus (@your_worm) reported@AEW @hbomax I just want my stupid $42.19. Please. I dont understand why this is such a hassle. I paid for a product that did not work. Times are too tough for me to just forget about 40 dollars. Can someone please help me out here? @TonyKhan ?
-
Jp *checkmark (@RealJPSquared) reported@hbomax if you can't competently stream live sports, give it to someone else. Choppy, audio goes out of sync... This is the worst garbage stream I've ever had to deal with.

-
Eli (@guevanex) reportedFix the stream @hbomax @AEW unwatchable with audio delay
-
TheGreatBabu (@TheGr8Babu) reportedHey @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!
-
Brad Winchester (@WindDuster) reported@hbomaxhelp Three hours deep into a show to fix it is diabolical.
-

-
EllyButt 🏴🇺🇦🇪🇺 (@WotBuwcheeks) reported@hbomax has awful coverage for the football, why the hell did @footballontnt move there?
-
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.

Irwin M. Fletcher (@IrwinMFlet32077) reportedoffended by Bateman and the idiots that did @HBO @hbomax DTF St. Louis. What an AWFUL ******* show. So talking slowly and or whatever Bateman does is funny? Every episode this slow delivery of talking like dumbasses is funny. Get this trash off of Max #DTFStLouis #HBOMAx
-
Aaron (@Azwilko1997) reported@mangAman_vp @hbomax changing aspect ratio is intentional by the director. as fo bad quality thats just streaming in general compared to a disc
-
Bret Callahan (@Bret14) reported@hbomaxhelp hey guys the @AEW feed is awful....the audio doesn't work. Like seriously this is 2026. @TonyKhan you should realize there is an issue.
-
Myke (@DeQuan81) reported@aaronrift @hbomax I got the error and backed out and went back and it's been fine all night.
-
Sasha | Gen 10 HYPE (@Sasha_Arilda) reported@hbomaxhelp @HBO @AEW Plz fix the hbo max stream, I still am sitting on a loading screen
-
Gabe (@TheGWK21) reported@aaronrift @hbomax Didn’t work for me either I had to just order it through cable and now I have to try and get a refund
-
Virtual Photographer...sometimes (@mangAman_vp) reported@hbomax Just a heads up: Using the app in the UK with adds, after adds appear the quality drops badly and you have to stop then restart. Also, the amount of adds in the first 10mins is brutal. Hardly enjoyable.
-
Gustavo Gatsby (@11GustavoGatsby) reportedI’ve been seeing a lot of AI commercials and ads through @hbomax team, @cbdmdusa. Need some help?
-
Cory (@trumarvel) reported@aaronrift @hbomax I requested a refund from Apple and ordered on my traditional PPV. HBO Max has so many issues every PPV it feels like. I’ve never had a perfect experience
