    @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

    @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.

    @alissaTweets @hbomax @TonyKhan Highly doubt it. I once had a streaming issue with another service that wouldn't refund me, so I unsubscribed next day.

    @hbomaxhelp @MMoneyCarson Your app is super frustrating. It gets stuck at the ad break and loops without moving on. Restarting is not a great fix. It seems like a glitch at your end, how about posting something helpful about this instead of making customers troubleshoot?

    Matt (@GardenCenobite) reported

    I really hope that if they're going to be buying @hbomax which is an app that actually works on smart tvs, that @paramountplus will revamp their app, which is the worst app on the planet. Literally only app we have issues with constantly for no reason.

  • mangAman_vp
    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.

    Dammit, @hbomax … the finale of #DTFStLouis hurt my soul. Floyd Smernitch deserved so much better. 😭my tiny bird heart is broken.

    I’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

    @hbomax Is this gonna be as crazy as Baby Reindeer because that show was like a car crash I couldn't look away from

    She knew what he was capable of. She asked for help. She tried to stop it. But without a crime, no one would intervene. And she was left waiting, knowing something terrible might happen. Watch “Evil Lives Here: My Child The Killer” Tuesday on ID and stream on @HBOMax. #EvilLivesHere

    @hbomaxhelp I'm not doing a chat bot when it's your audio engineers not doing their jobs. Announce team to 90ish percent to overmod, the crowd should be 70ish % of that and the ring mic should be 40ish % of the crowd. Problem solved.

    @AEW @hbomax I paid money for a ppv and am unable to stream it. I've missed an hour of this so far. Been on hold for about 40 mins. Any help here???

    Rajiv (@TheRajiv8) reported

    I hade to request a refund from @Apple for the **** show that is @hbomax showing #AEWRevolution just bought it on YouTube and it’s working beautifully there. @hbomaxhelp get it together and hopefully Apple approves the refund because of how terrible the experience was on your app

  • Reetzy26
    Cory Reetz (@Reetzy26) reported

    @hbomaxhelp Thanks for getting back to me. I would like my money back please since the issue was not mine but yours. Plus I purchased the PPV in another platform due to your technical issues.

    @EE @tntsports @hbomax I currently have my TNT sports subscription through EE but when I use my discovery + login on the HBOMax app it says I do not have any subscriptions. How do I get this resolved?

    @hbomaxhelp we have been trying to get ahold of you for an hour. We have tried to call message you about the aew ppv now working for us. At this point we want a refund. Can you help.

    @hbomax @StreamOnMax Keep going with the woke BULLSHIT on The Pitt, and you’ll lose this viewer and the REST of our ED. Ridiculous. You have a solid, medically accurate (to a point) show, but yet EVERY week, some woke **** slips its way in the episode. This week? ICE And let me inform you if this- Not ONE of us working in a busy ED care if people are LEAVING the EMERGENCY WAITING ROOM for their NON EMERGENCY ISSUES. Jerkoffs.
