Still holding on to your cable TV so you can keep HBO? Already cut the cord and regretting it knowing you can't watch "The Leftovers"? Did your ex's roommate's dad change his HBO Go login that you were (secretly) using?
We feel your pain, but we also have some incredibly good news. There is now a way you can still have HBO (legally!) without paying a ridiculous cable bill or borrowing logins.

We feel your pain, but we also have some incredibly good news. There is now a way you can still have HBO (legally!) without paying a ridiculous cable bill or borrowing logins. According the the Wall Street Journal, a handful of cable and Internet providers have package deals that allow you to get HBO and Internet only, but they're kind of secret. Here's what you need to ask for:
- Comcast offers "Internet Plus", which is Internet with 10+ channels, HBO and HBO Go.
- Time Warner Cable offers "Starter TV + HBO," which includes 20+ channels with HBO and HBO Go. To get Internet though, you'll need to add a separate plan.
- Verizon FiOS offers Internet, HBO or Showtime and local channels with the package deal "50/25 Mbps + Local News and Sports + HBO (or Showtime)."
- AT&T U-Verse offers "HBO Internet Plus," which is just what it sounds like.
If your local company doesn't offer any of these great plans then, well, we guess you'll just have to move (anything for "Game of Thrones").
