So, it is important to note that Netflix is not a feature that is offered bundled with the service plans that AT&T Internet service Provider. Nevertheless, there are certain plans which are provided by AT&T in wireless, internet, and TV that come with HBO Max.

Yes, the company has worked with many streaming platforms for their packages and promotions, but free Netflix was never included as a promotion. They’ve never directly promoted Netflix, but there was a time when they offered gift cards which could be used to pay for membership when you sign up for some of the AT&T services.

As of now, AT&T’s video product and services entailing partnership revolve around HBO Max. These are, for instance, free access to HBO Max for customers who sign up for one of their unlimited wireless plans, fiber internet plans or select DIRECTV packages. Yes, you can obtain HBO Max for free if you are an AT&T customer; however, Netflix cannot be obtained in the same way.

Why isn’t AT&T providing Netflix free of cost?

And of course, AT&T has their own streaming services that they want to bring to the attention of subscribers: HBO Max. By offering HBO Max with all its subscription plans, they want the customers to become regular HBO Max viewers instead of subscribing to a rival streaming service like Netflix.

So it just boils down to competition from businesses within the streaming platforms. Interlinkages are not so very rare for example one can be able to create a Netflix subscription that is billed on the AT&T wireless account occasionally, but to include Netflix for free would be to directly support a major competitor that offers entertainment streaming services.

Which AT&T deals allow you to have HBO Max for free?

Here are some of the AT&T wireless, internet and TV plans that currently include an HBO Max subscription for free:

• No data caps on Elite, Extra and Supermarket wireless plans
• Bring Your Own Device and common pool of data share plans (10GB or above)
• Fast internet connection plans of 300, 500, and 1Gbps fiber packages
• The TV packages include the following; DIRECTV CHOICE and above
• AT&T TV NOW Max package is the most expensive offering and costs $80 per month.

Therefore, beginning this week, AT&T wireless customers with the following eligible plans can simply sign up and enjoy HBO Max for free. An HBO Max subscription on its own, as we noted, costs $14.99 per month, which means including it is a good bonus for AT&T customers with those plans.

What other perks do you get when streaming through AT&T?

The bottom line: AT&T’s free streaming service is not Netflix.

Currently, there are no offers from AT&T that entitle users to have Netflix for free with wireless, internet or TV services but the company has numerous media affiliations. This is not likely to happen in the near future with the onset of competition between streaming video platforms.

But existing HBO Max users, or those who are eligible to receive AT&T services, can access HBO Max integrated with current subscription packages free of additional cost. So if you are not satisfied with Netflix streaming quality and wants to get high quality streaming video only from AT&T then HBO Max will be your free choice. Taking into account the average subscription price for HBO Max, it can still be considered quite reasonable especially for the AT&T clients who already have compatible wireless, fiber or DIRECTV services.
