Refund rules vary by billing provider. Use the Subscription screen to identify the company that must review the charge.

Check my refund options
Renewal
The billing provider should show renewal off, an expiration date, and an email or account confirmation while viewing remains available through the paid period.
Billing owner
The company shown on the receipt or account controls refund handling.
Evidence
Keep the receipt, cancellation status, effective date, and response from the seller.

Review the official refund or subscription terms for the company that posted the charge before requesting a reversal. HBO Max — cancel a subscription

Billing owner and plan consequences

HBO Max uses different cancellation rules for hbo max-billed subscription, apple or google play, tv, mobile, or internet provider, and base plan plus add-on. Identify the billed product and owner before following a path.

  • HBO Max-billed subscription

    Cancel at hbomax.com/subscription.

  • Apple or Google Play

    Use the store account that purchased HBO Max.

  • TV, mobile, or internet provider

    Use the partner’s billing portal or support team.

  • Base plan plus add-on

    Check whether the add-on has its own billing provider and renewal.

Keep proof

What to record before and after cancellation

For HBO Max, keep subscription screen, provider receipt, expiration date, and cancellation email. These records establish the effective date and help resolve another charge.

  • Subscription screen

    Names the company that bills the plan.

  • Provider receipt

    Shows the account, plan, and next billing date.

  • Expiration date

    Confirms when access will end.

  • Cancellation email

    Provides a record if another charge appears.

Troubleshooting

Why a cancellation can appear to fail

If HBO Max still appears active or keeps billing, check no cancel option in hbo max, app deleted, wrong store account, and add-on overlooked before treating the subscription as canceled.

  • No cancel option in HBO Max

    That normally means another provider owns the subscription.

  • App deleted

    Deleting HBO Max leaves the store or provider subscription active.

  • Wrong store account

    The subscription may belong to another Apple ID, Google account, or household account.

  • Add-on overlooked

    A separately billed add-on may continue after the base plan changes.

HBO Max cancellation questions

Answers reflect the current provider and billing-owner sources listed on this page.

Open HBO Max, choose Profile or Settings, then Subscription to see who bills the plan. If HBO Max bills you, use hbomax.com/subscription and choose Cancel Your Subscription; Apple, Google Play, Samsung, a TV provider, or another partner must be canceled through that provider, and deleting the HBO Max app does not stop renewal.
The billing provider should show renewal off, an expiration date, and an email or account confirmation while viewing remains available through the paid period.
Open HBO Max Profile or Settings, then Subscription, to identify the billing provider. Use that provider’s billing portal or official support route; HBO Max cannot directly cancel a plan whose renewal is controlled by another company.
Check whether each add-on has its own billing provider and renewal entry. Canceling the base HBO Max plan does not prove that a separately billed add-on is off, so save the final status for both items.
