DISH channel lineups FAQ
How much is the basic DISH package?
Flex Pack, DISH’s channel-skinny base package, starts at $62.99 per month. It features 50 channels, a mix of popular networks and fillers that DISH will not-so-gently suggest you beef-up with an add-on package—because what’s another $10 on top of 62 bucks? The DISH Flex Pack isn’t fully loaded, but it’s one of the cheapest deals in satellite TV.
How much does it cost to add HBO® to a DISH package?
You can add Max (formerly HBO Max) to your DISH channel package for $16 per month.
