Here's how to cancel an HBO Max subscription on all platforms, when to cancel to avoid fees, and who to contact for cancellation or payment issues.

   You can cancel your Max subscription any time you'd like. However, if you want to avoid being charged for the upcoming month, be sure to cancel at least 48 hours before your usual renewal date. Once you cancel your subscription, you'll still have access to your membership until the last day of your current billing cycle.

   • While HBO Max doesn't issue refunds, you may be eligible for a refund if you subscribed through a different platform, depending on their policy.
