-
Kakarot (@King003001) reported@JGreenhouseftw @PsychoDad7820 @hbomax There’s no such thing as trans. It’s just men and women. Some men like to pretend to be women and the other way around too. Those are sick people that need help
-
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.

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

🇺🇸 (@RG3424) reported@hbomax I want a refund for the aew revolution stream. It was completely broken, so I had to get it on YouTube
-
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?
-
lee 🤠 (@harveyleeee) reported@hbomax y’all gotta fix these ads. i can’t even watch the pitt in peace without them popping up and not going away
-
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!
-
Mr Danny (@spinningoutaday) reported@andyjd747 @hbomax It’s effectively a downgrade. We had UHD and Ad Skip on our Stream package but now shows we previously could watch are only on HBO Max in awful quality with ads.
-

-
star (@piningmygrove) reported@hbomax his legs are so long help
-
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.
-
Shannon Stringer (@PigzFly_) reported@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
-
Vertrees (@vertrees) reported@hbomaxhelp my AEW feed still isn’t working. How do refunds work??!! @TonyKhan
-
Bobby White (@BobbyWh00604827) reported@the1bar23 @hbomaxhelp Did you get this fixed? I was just about to buy it but stopped just to see if anyone was having issues
-
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 ?
-
Frank Castle (@MrSpacely313) reportedI’m done with @hbomax. Service doesn’t work then when I contact them for a refund they tell me they don’t do refunds. Real great business practices. #AEWRevolution
-

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.
-
mikegb (@mikegb) reported@hulu @hbomax @DisneyPlus trying to give you money right now and seeing constant errors. Really f'n frustrating when I can't see the end of this basketball game.
-
LoFi Tweets to Study to (@KayfabeHuman) reported@SeanRossSapp But what about the issue where the stream never works at all on HBO Max? @hbomaxhelp
-
Steven (@FatGuyLilCoat89) reported@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.
-
Brandon Halloway (@BrandonHalloway) reported@hbomax the only thing your Harry Potter documentary should cover is how you didn’t have a budget for light bulbs. You have 6 months. Lighten the movie. It’s so dark the trailer looks awful. It’s giving everyone too dark game of thrones feeling. Shoot the show so we can see it.
-
Onur Ç. (@BlackmaxOnur) reported@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!
