What our expert says...
“If you’re only interested in watching specific events or don’t want to pay for lots of extra channels, the easiest way to get TNT Sports is to sign up to the HBO Max app. This lets you subscribe on a monthly rolling basis.
“But bear in mind that this might not be the most cost-effective option. Getting TNT Sports as part of a broadband and TV package could offer better value overall, which is why it’s always a good idea to compare sports bundles.”
