Save an alert if HBO Max changes price

We save your address and the service name. Nothing is sent when you submit. A price-change email is not going out yet. This is separate from price notes and from the calculator sign-in link. A price you typed yourself is not a tracked plan, so it cannot be on this alert.

A heads-up when a subscription you pay for raises its price.

We'll email you when a price you track changes.

We never sell your address. Unsubscribe anytime.
