But the decision doesn’t come as a surprise as the wireless giant no longer owns HBO Max.

The company didn’t provide additional details regarding this move. “HBO Max is a great service, but we constantly experiment with the features we offer our customers to give them the best value,” AT&T said in a statement to NextTV. Existing Unlimited Elite subscribers will continue to get access to the streaming service for no additional charge, though. It has been replaced with the Unlimited Premium which costs the same but doesn’t include HBO Max.

Perhaps the plan itself doesn’t exist anymore for new AT&T customers as well as existing customers looking to upgrade to the top-tier plan. The wireless giant has dropped the SVOD (subscription video-on-demand) service from the $85 per month Unlimited Elite plan.

Although AT&T Unlimited Premium will not offer free HBO Max, the plan will include 50 gigabytes (up from 40 GB per month) of high-speed hotspot data and starts at $50 per month per line when you get four lines.īefore the launch of the streaming service HBO Max, the carrier had used to give HBO for free in some of its unlimited plans going back to 2017. Previously, the AT&T Unlimited Elite wireless plan offered HBO Max for no extra charge. Also, AT&T’s Cricket Wireless brand, the company’s prepaid carrier, still offers the ad-supported version of HBO Max included with its $60 per month unlimited plan. It is important to note that existing customers who already have an Unlimited Elite plan will continue to receive HBO Max for no additional charge. With this week’s move, AT&T no longer has a video streaming partner for its main wireless service. Discovery mega-merger has closed, AT&T no longer owns HBO Max therefore, it has no motive to keep giving consumers the perk. The bundling of HBO Max with AT&T’s wireless plans helped gain customers and convince existing subscribers to switch to the higher-priced plan. “HBO Max is a great service, but we constantly experiment with the features we offer our customers to give them the best value,” AT&T spokesman Jim Greer told TechCrunch.

AT&T confirmed the new plan doesn’t include the streaming service but didn’t provide a detailed explanation regarding its decision. The company launched the new plan this week, which replaced Unlimited Elite. Telecommunications provider AT&T quietly dropped HBO Max as a bundled perk for new AT&T customers on its top unlimited wireless plan, AT&T Unlimited Premium.
