Dunno if this is right or not but will you have to pay subs to HBO as TNT is joining HBO so much for getting free £20 for the free channels being added.

@Totalwar2 customers who pay sky for TNT sports will get access via hbo max at no additional charge like they do now with discovery plus

anyone who currently doesn't have tnt sports will have to subscribe to it via sky to get access via max

So you got to have sub to TNT to watch HBO.Not free in my book.Same as Sky cinema get paramount plus but not Sky cinema don't get paramount plus.

Also will Disney+ still be a monthly contract or will have to sign up to a two year contract?

netflix is included in the subscription charge so not free.

No you don't have to sub to TNT Sport to get basic (with ads) HBO Max. You can upgrade to TNT Sport if you wish, but it's not necessary. As for Disney+ (with ads) as far as we know that will be included with your subscription, rolling or 24 month contract.

But just seen TNT will be included with HBO.i can't see Sky subscribers getting TNT free.

As far as I know both channels will become one.

HBO Max and TNT Sports.

HBO Max Standard with Ads will be included with Sky Ultimate. Higher tiers, including TNT Sport will require payment.

@Totalwar2 TNT will be part of hbo max but you need the appropriate subscription to access

Only the basic tier of HBO max is included for free with sky package

So if I subscribe to TNT Sports through Sky can I cancel my TNT subscription and just upgrade to HBO Max premium and get everything? Won't that save me money?

Not if you want to watch the linear channels through the EPG, which is only available if you subscribe via Sky.

Subscribing directly via HBO Max will only give you access to the TNT Sports channels via the HBO Max app.

If you're thinking you'll get TNT Sports by subscribing to HBO Max Premium through Sky at £10, you won't. 📺

Correct, although it still may be slightly cheaper via HBO Max, as unless i'm mistake TNT Sports its staying at £31 via HBO Max, so isn't getting the £3 price increase from April that is applying to subscriptions via Sky.
