In an attempt to help offset the loss of around five million HBO subscribers who signed up through Amazon Prime Video Channels and were officially cut off this week, WarnerMedia is offering a major discount.
Starting Friday, those who accessed HBO via Prime Video Channels – as well as all new and returning HBO Max subscribers in the U.S. – can sign up for the ad-free premium tier of the HBO Max monthly plan at a 50% discount.
This reduces the price from $14.99/month to $7.49/month for six months. After that, the rate goes back up to the regular amount. That six months at that tier though will offer access to day-and-date major Warner releases in coming months like “Dune” and “The Matrix Resurrections”.
Customers can sign up through hbomax.com, Apple, Google, LG, Microsoft, Sony, Roku and Vizio. The 50% off deal is available in the U.S. only and will only run until the end of next weekend (September 26th).
