HBO (Sky) and HBO (TNT Sports)

Hello.

We have HBO through our TNT sports susbscription and we want to keep this.

We now have HBO basic through Sky. If I try to connect to HBO through Sky using my email address, I get a warning message saying I will lose all the profile rights from my HBO subscription to what was TNT sports.

How do I get both?

Thanks.

@Kazzaz  the email address on both the sky account and hbo account has to be the same

No, TNT has its own subscription not through Sky. I don't know how or why, but we pay separately for it.

Do you mean you only have  TNT sports direct though HBO max app subscribing direct with HBO max? As I believe these days that the only  way can have tnt sport with out going though another platform like BT or ee. TNT sports has far as I am aware don't do there own subscription. I have the TNT sport app on my iPad and all the live TNT sports content is directed to the HBO max app with that subscription with HBO max if you have not the TNT sports subscription though Sky, Any if that the case if you activate your Sky  HBO max entertainment subscription  though  Sky using the same login use for TNT sports yes as Sky will take over that login and you will lose your TNT sports content though that app as you will have to have a TNT subscription though Sky by the look at to get both with that login. Which I find strange s if you had the same login with another provider like BT or ee they will, both work together  but by the look of it not if you just have the service direct with HBO max. This being the case your only option if you want to keep the same login is to cancel your HBO max subscription and have a  TNT sport subscription though Sky you will then get both entertainment and TNT sports with the same login. Though TNT sport though Sky   is £3 dearer  than with HBO max direct at £34 but you do also get the 4 linner TNT sports channels on your Sky box as well , I presume you won't want to take up a Sky TNT subscription till your HBO max subscription is finished therefore if you don't won't to lose the TNT sports content on the HBO max don't activate you sky HBO max entertainment subscription till you bleed to get one from Sky.

@Kazzaz Who is billing you for tnt sports? Sky, bt/ee or Discovery Communications Benelux B.V. (For direct subscriptions via hbo app/website)

Thank you for such a full response. I will review what is happening at the BT Sport end and take it from there.

Hi. It's BT. So I think I need to find out from Sky how much HBO Max is and cancel the BT one. I think!

Do you get TNT sport though BT because you have there broadband? So you also get the 4 linner TNT channels on your Sky box? If so you should.be able to still get TNT sport content in HBO max app even though you have activated the Sky HBO entertainment HBO max subscription with the same login  as your BT account. In fact over the last couple of months there has been many users with BT/ee tnt accounts asking how to get both there BT/ee TNT sport and Sky  entertainment  content in HBO max app without having to log in and out of different accounts and the answer has always been have the BT/ee login the same as you Sky log in I have attached a help page about this from ee who are the same BT these days as BT own ee Where it says you may need  to contact ee in your case you would contact BTIMG_0071.png
