HBO max

Hi, anybody out there tell me whether activating HBO Max effects or initiates a new contract?

I have Sky Ultimate and thinking of getting HBO which is free, but don't want it to effect my current contract which expires soon.

Don't want to get tied into another 2 years which Sky have a habit of doing when you start adding things.

Thanks

Hi @Doylargio, activating the "free" tier of HBO Max in no way affects your Sky contract.

Hi @Doylargio HBO Max is a Marketplace subscription (with separate billing for higher plans), it does not impact your Sky subscription.
