HBO Max Deal Lets You Subscribe For 50% Off

Everyone who signs up by September 26 can do so for only $7.50 per month for the ad-free version.

14 Comments

HBO Max is offering its best deal yet, giving new and returning subscribers the ability to sign up for HBO Max for only $7.50 per month. That's 50% off the normal $15/month price for the ad-free version of the subscription service.

WarnerMedia is rolling out this deal after HBO content was removed from Amazon Prime Video on September 15. The deal also kicks off just as Clint Eastwood's Cry Macho comes to HBO Max and a month before Dune releases in October.

As an unexpected bonus, the deal also applies to new and returning HBO Max users who might have canceled and now want to come back. Existing HBO Max subscribers, however, can't extend their existing membership with this deal. However, they seemingly can if their monthly or yearly plan expires on or before September 26, which is when the new offer expires. The $7.50/month offer is good for up to six months.

HBO Max contains a big library of TV shows and movies from the WarnerMedia catalog. The latest big new release is Clint Eastwood's Cry Macho, which is out today, September 17. All of WarnerMedia's 2021 movies, including Dune and The Matrix Resurrections, will come to HBO Max this year alongside their theatrical releases.

$7.50 a month needs to be the normal really. $15 was to much

They should keep it at this price indefinitely. It’s simply not worth $15 a month anyway you slice it. For $7.50 I think I’ll bite actually.

$15 per month seems quite steep. Before you know it you're paying over $100 per month with a couple other subscriptions. Too bad it's come to this...

@Dave1927p: I cut TV from my cable plan earlier this year, saving $88 every month from 99% crap I didn't watch. I have both the hulu and Amazon yearly plans which ends up being less than $20 a month and I actually watch a good chunk of stuff on them. I could still subscribe to two more services and still be saving more money than the pre-cord cutting days.

If you didn't think this would happen then that's on you. It was clear as day.

@hellhammer: I never said that…greed dictates their decisions and that’s nothing new. I’m not entirely sure what you are on about. I’m Canadian so we don’t even have this service as an option.

I love the big middle fingers that these services give to their existing subscribers. I purposely went down to the cheaper tier because the streamer doesn't have enough content I am interested in for me to justify paying another $15/mo. subscription. Just let everyone have it for this price.
