Just days after T-Mobile announced it was offering free Netflix to some wireless subscribers, AT&T is giving away free HBO to even more of its customers!

Back in April, AT&T threw in HBO for those on its most expensive plan, AT&T Unlimited Plus.

AT&T adds free HBO to cheaper unlimited plan

Now, new and current subscribers of its cheaper unlimited plan, AT&T Unlimited Choice, will also get free HBO starting September 15.

“HBO is included in these plans whether you have 1 line or even 10 lines, and the price stays the same. This means an AT&T Unlimited Choice customer can get unlimited data, talk, text and HBO included for $60 a month or on 4 lines for less than $40 per line,” AT&T said in a news release.

There are three ways for AT&T customers to take advantage of the free HBO:

If you currently subscribe to HBO through an AT&T video service ‘ DIRECTV, DIRECTV NOW or U-verse TV ‘ HBO will now be included for no added charge.
If you subscribe to an AT&T video service but not HBO, you’ll automatically receive unlimited access to HBO as part of your wireless plan.
If you don’t subscribe to an AT&T video service, you can access your HBO entertainment through the DIRECTV NOW and HBO GO apps.

AT&T Unlimited Plus and AT&T Unlimited Choice customers also receive a $25 monthly video credit on AT&T video services, including DIRECTV NOW.
