If you're hoping to get a Disney Plus upgrade with HBO Max and Hulu, I have good news; it's really easy. To point you in the right direction, I've rounded up everything you need to know here. That includes up-to-date pricing, what to do if you already have a membership, and how it all works.

What if I already have Disney Plus?

If you've already got a Disney Plus membership, it's all very straightforward - the only variable is the kind of subscription you have. Here's how it works:

  • Monthly: It's really simple to upgrade if you have a rolling Disney Plus subscription already. Just go to the Disney Plus website, click on your profile, hit 'Account/Settings,' then click 'Manage Plan.' With that out of the way, select the bundle you want. It'll then take care of the rest.
  • Annual: If you've got an yearly deal, things are a bit more complicated but it's still easy. Visit the Disney Plus website, go your account, and click 'Manage Plan.' Once you've selected the bundle you want, you should receive prorated billing credit for any unused value leftover from the old annual plan. This is removed from your bundle's monthly cost until nothing is left.
  • Via third party: Sorry folks, you aren't able to get the Disney Plus upgrade if you already have a membership via a third party (e.g. as a free gift with an internet membership). You'll need to visit Disney Plus directly, and while you'll be billed for both, the bundle cost is reduced by the value of your existing Disney Plus subscription.

What if I already have HBO Max?

Got a HBO Max subscription as is? It's no bother to get the Disney Plus upgrade. Here's what to do based on your membership:

  • Monthly: To upgrade to the triple bundle, simply visit the HBO Max site and select the bundle you want, log in, and follow the on-screen instructions. Alternatively, you can log in and manage your subscription via your account.

What if I already have Hulu?

For those with a Hulu subscription, upgrading is just as easy. Here's how it's done:

  • Monthly: Pop over to the Hulu website and visit your account, then click 'Manage Plans,' and pick the bundle you want. Although you'll be billed for Hulu and the bundle separately, the cost of your Hulu membership will be removed from the bundle's overall price.

To get the best out of your new streaming services, why not pair them with the best gaming TVs or the best OLED TVs?
