How To Cancel HBO Free Trial Before It Is Too Late

HBO is a paid television network, owned by WarnerMedia Studios & Networks. Renowned for its original series like Game of Thrones, Sex & The City, and The Sopranos, the company launched HBO Max in 2020, the newest iteration of its on-demand streaming service that comes with a seven-day free trial.

While it effectively replaced HBO Now (now known only as HBO), HBO Max is still not available on Roku and Amazon Fire TV devices. Roku and Amazon users can access the HBO streaming app for free for seven days.

The Biggest Issues With Canceling HBO Free Trials

To avoid your free trial turning into a monthly subscription, you will have to cancel it on time. As stated in HBO Max Terms and Conditions, you won’t be notified when your trial is about to expire, which means you will have to keep track of the deadline.

You can cancel any time before the trial expires, but it is recommended to do it 24 hours in advance to avoid unwanted charges.

In case you miss the cancellation window, you will face the following issues:

  • Your card will be charged the monthly fee (currently $14.99 for both HBO Max and HBO)
  • You won’t qualify for a full or prorated refund

Avoid Auto-Renewals With DoNotPay

DoNotPay can help you cancel existing subscriptions and memberships, but we can also prevent the issues with unwanted auto-renewals. Instead of using your credit card at the signup, you can generate a Free Trial Card and start the free trial risk-free. The free virtual credit card is not linked to your bank account, so even if you forget to cancel on time, you will avoid the issues mentioned above.
