    @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

    Hey @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.

    @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 ?

    @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.

    @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.

    @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

    @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?

    @Serious_Falcon @hbomax i see you missed the part where the vampire told him the bible verses don’t work that’s when he realized church couldn’t save him either only God can and wanted him to carve his own path

    Dear @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?

    @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.

    @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.

    @NOWTV your trailer about @hbomax coming together has a spoiler from Heated Rivalry in it, please fix that.

    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.

    How 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 😎
