HBO Max not working- says not subscribed any longer through dish

[Former member 186622]

I went to get on HBO Max a little bit ago to watch the new episode of The Last of Us and it says my subscription with Dish has expired. I am still able to watch HBO on Dish right now though. So i tried the HBO Max website and i went to sign in through Dish and it says service not available. Anyone have any idea what's going on?

Its due to the DISH computer issues, their verification system that ties in with HBO is not online and has been down for over a week now due to the issues.

I heard last week that they were hoping to bring things back online starting last Thursday but obviously that did not happen.
They are working on it.

Since Dish was hacked everyone lost HBO Max, Showtime and other premiums. I lost HBO & Showtime. They can't be reauthorized until Dish's. Site is backup.

Ok, thanks guys. I was worried it was just me. Gotta love technology!

Ouch, now that does suck due to the blackout.

I am having the same issue with the ESPN and MSNBC apps on my phone. I am no longer authorized to watch either since Dish is incapable of validating my account.

HBO VOD is working OK though. I was able to watch the latest The Last of Us episode last night....

My HBOmax is through ATT and is working. Scott has the best reply about this.

Sign up with a secondary email address and take advantage of the 7 to 30 Day's Free that most of these services offer. I've done it with Showtime. Instead of logging in through Showtime Anytime app with Dish authentication login to the Showtime app with your new email address. Its not a long term solution but might get you through until Dish can start responding to the providers requests.
