I’ve been trying to get a cheaper HBO Max subscription using a VPN, but I keep running into roadblocks. Here’s what I’ve tried so far:
What I tried:
- VPN (Brazil)
• Managed to access the payment page, but it required a CPF (Brazilian tax ID) and a credit card. My credit card was marked as invalid.
- VPN (Argentina)
• Prices displayed correctly on the homepage but redirected me to the US signup page with US pricing when trying to subscribe.
- VPN(Colombia)
• Got to the payment page, but all my credit card attempts were declined.
- Mobile App (with VPN to various countries)
• Couldn’t change the plan or subscribe—kept showing “plan change unavailable.”
Additional things I tried:
• Created fresh accounts and attempted to subscribe.
• Logged into an existing account and tried to change the subscription plan via settings.
None of these worked. Has anyone found a method that actually works for getting a cheaper HBO Max subscription?
