You need a VPN to connect to an Argentinian server. I did it with NordVPN and Starling.

1. Activate VPN
2. Go to HBOmax.com/subscribe
3. Scroll down to find the yearly offer (I got the standard for ARG $3,499.00), these is a cheaper one for mobile devices only for $2,279.00.

4. I used starling to pay, I suppose Revolut or Monzo will work.

Downloading the app is a bit trickier but there are guides online.

I hope it will help someone.

    Hi ok a bit of an update.

    This may not work for everybody but it worked for me.

    I use dns4me to access the hbomax argentina sign up page - bing.com/sea…CTS


    I selected the 12 monthly option - put my name and email address in and also create an account with password and used my Halifax Clarity Card to pay - they email you a link to verify the account - I clicked the link and it said payment failed.


    At this point I get automated call from Halifax to ask if transaction was genuine (they had declined it) - hit the button to say yes.

    Back to hbo max (argentina) log in page - log in with details I created earlier - click on renew subscription - this time it went through fine.

    Changed my HBO MAX region to USA (using the options in dns4me) and I logged in fine using my ROKU ULTRA and also on my desktop PC.

    Account shows 12 months sub active - turn auto renew off if you don't want that option.

    I don't have SKY or any of the UK services so this is awesome for myself - nice to see the whole of THE WIRE on there as well as the new series from the creators of THE WIRE which is just starting with the first episode available to view.

    Tried The BATMAN and came through with Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos perfectly.

    (Anybody who wishes to try dns4me to access overseas tv services use the code "lovewp" for 10 percent off - nothing to do with me and I don't get anything at all from this - I have used them for years - think it works out about £34 a year - I just use their dns addresses in my deco router and it then works on all devices in my house)

    Thank You OP

    I'd be interested in a few other cheap subs.


    Amazon Prime Poland is really cheap but doesn't include free delivery to UK can use prime video though.
    S Sport + Turkey is good too.
    Eurosport Romania was 20 euro a year. (edited)

    My steps......

    Downloaded hbo max (android tv version) using the download app from Google play store.

    Using ipvanish changed to Argentina.

    Using ipvanish on my android phone went to hbomax.com/ar/es then allow browser to autotranslate. Register for an account but do not pay yet.

    Then go to subscriptions and choose to pay using Google pay. Price shows as $29.99 USD. Click on that and sign in to Google pay, price then adjusted to exactly £25.99 for 12 month standard sub. Completed checkout and all was active on the newly setup subscription.

    Lastly before you leave the hbomax.com/ar/es website, goto the settings tab on the inside top right and go down to languages and change to English.

    Once the above is done login with vpn active on your tv app and sign in and all should be working........and only 25.99

    Edit...just ran through the movie a-z list and it is vast. Easily more than all of the UK services combined. (edited)

It only works with some of the USA connections ( I haven’t tried all countries though ) , but I can’t download the app even if I use the VPN. This way I can only watch it on my phone/tablet but not a tv. Any help ? Thanks


    You need to change your Google/Apple account settings and change the region to US in order to see and download the app. Then you can revert to UK. I have it on an iPad and an Android phone.

    Did you definitely get charged £24? Argentine have introduced an online sales tax of 65% and I've seen elsewhere people being charged 5,738 (circa £40) for this. Still a good deal.

It's just hbo being over protecting their app. Ps. You can use vpn to connect from any supported country. I belive that French/German servers should be better due to faster Internet speeds .


    I don't think HBO max is available in France or Germany, Netherlands is usually the fastest although more content in the USA. They also have the champions League in Mexico and southern American regions.

    You can get Tidal for very cheap, like £1.50/month for the Family HiFiPlus package, the same way (VPN, starling, Argentina). When I was looking for music streaming Spotify etc all declined starling and revolut (I don't know if Monzo works).

    I had a hard time, too. In case this helps: you have to pay via the site you signed up under. I made the mistake of signing up under the Dutch site (my vpn defaulted there) and then trying to pay via the Argentina site. It gives error messages for that. I had to use a new email and sign up again on the Argentina site and paid there. I used Starling to pay and it went straight through.

    You are absolutely correct, the transaction came through in the evening and it was £39.80 (so £3.32/month).

    I use a Roku Ultra to view HBO MAX, Hulu etc here in the UK.

    Just set the Roku up initially as if you are in USA - I use DNS4ME in my deco router to change my DNS .

    All USA service work well - with Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos etc where available.

    I also use an XBOX SERIES S - Just change country to USA - download apps - and then change back to UK - in some ways this is better as you can mix US and UK apps.

    get them to send the app file via e-mail to you. Then once you have it you can open it in your own country. Friends abroad can then share their username and password with you. I found lots of good things on HBO max and seemed better than NOW movies

    Can this be done on a firestick


    The easiest way I found to get HBO on the firestick was to change your Amazon account country to the US under 'Manage content and devices' -> Preferences -> Country/region Settings (you will have to input a made up US address).

    Then you search for HBOMax app, download and deliver to your firestick. You can also download from the firestick app store.

    All of the above is with vpn set to US. Don't forget to change back you amazon settings afterwards. I believe this removes the issue of having to update the apk every time HBO update their app, as it should update automatically. Hopefully. (edited)
