You might have better luck posting in the Directv forum. Directv forums are here: https://forums.directv.com

However, look at an old Directv bill when you were still getting the HBO channels. You should see something like this, this is what is on my Directv bill:

2. HBO Max 0.00
with AT&T Unlimited &More Premium or WatchTV
Presuming you do have something like that, look at your latest bill, it’s probably gone. I presume you still have the same wireless plan that gave you those channels? If so, you may need to reauthorize your free HBO (which is now HBOMax) through your wireless account.

This sounds like what was happening to me.

I was getting the HBO TV channels through my U-Verse. My official plan was for HBO Max free with Internet 1000. One day, my HBO TV channels disappeared, but I was still getting HBO Max.

After someone with the Office of the President looked through my plan, it was determined that the TV channels were essentially a glitch.

Because I get HBO Max with Internet 1000 and do not pay for HBO via a TV plan, I do not get the TV channels.
