I have had Total Choice for a number of years and always sign up for HBO when Bill Maher is on. Its the only show I watch on HBO because the movies are terrible and I don't usually watch movies any way. I just tried to sign on to HBO and can't unless I change my current package which will cost me more money. Is there a way to get around this because I am not paying more money for a program that is only 1 hour when I can watch it on my son's Tv for free. It seems to me they will lose $14 for a couple of months if their insist on the package change. Anybody have success it getting around this change ?? I'm retired and have to save money where I can. The last time I had HBO it was only $12
I wasn't too happy with the $2 increase but the package change will cost me more if I want to watch Bill.Maher

Same thing when I want to add or switch premium movie channels. You can do it by calling them to add it for you. Only their web page has the problem.

The only thing good (depending on your definition of good) about Cinemax is soft core porn. But free is free.
