Also available as a standalone deal, for those who don't have Hulu.

If you read the terms and conditions, you can only redeem this on a Hulu or ESPN account. The Disney/Hulu bundle is billed through Disney. It states you cannot redeem this if billed on Disney, making the AMEX card member discount of $7 ineffective for the additional $3 bucks (Disney bundle $5 plus what people wanted of HBO $3 totaling $8 bucks). I personally tried and no go.

I'd go stand alone because in 2026 Hulu itself goes bye bye and will be a tab in Disney+.

These streaming companies make so much in ad revenue that they could give the service away for free. Extracting any money at all from you is just icing on the cake.

On the bright side, Amex blue cash card (no annual fee version) lifted the minimum spend for the $7 a month Hulu bundle credit, so adding all 3 makes it $7.98 (plus taxes) and you'd get $7 back each month. Prior deals didn't include HBO bundle and you needed a minimum spend so it made it more difficult to take advantage of the credit.
I only see a paramount and peacock offer on my blue cash every day card.

You need to enroll for the offer on your card. It should be listed under the membership section of the Amex app.
Never mind. I see the benefit where you said. Thanks. Guess I was already enrolled but forgot all about it.

I have Amex. I signed up for Disney and Hulu at 4.99. Will then sign up for hbo max separately. Getting credits for just those two and paying box max separately is still cheaper than bundling all three and getting the discount.

Doesn't look like it allows the HBO Hulu add-on to combine with the Disney/Hulu $5 deal.

If so, it just means we won't be able to use the Amex Blue Cash monthly statement credits for both D+/Hulu and HBO
So if I sign up for a new Hulu.com account with Hulu+Disney for $5/month, I can't then add HBO for additional $3/month?

If I put the $5/month for Hulu+Disney on AMEX Blue Cash, will AMEX reimburse the $5 every month?

For the $5/month D+/Hulu subscription, that's covered if you have Amex BCP/BCE.

When I tried to sign up just now, I thought I saw the $5 D+/Hulu offer directly from Hulu too. Maybe if you signed up through Hulu as opposed to D+, the two can stack?

[QUOTE=louweed;180518515]Those scumbags I knew it when they announced the price hike last month you'd think they'd at least match the other $3/month deals oh well[/QUOTE

Hulu won't exist as a stand-alone App/Website for more than a few more months. It will all be under the Disney+ Site/App shortly. Most likely why they are not offering a Hulu only option for this year.

Someone needs to figure out how to add this to the Hulu Disney Bundle. I'm sure there's a way, but I haven't figured it out yet. I can't seem to add it from the Disney side, which is the center of billing for that deal.

Would be really nice if you could pause your subscription. I get access to HBO for free from March – August for awards season.
