$2.99 Peacock Offer

I received an email that stated "If you re-subscribe through Xfinity before August 25, 2023, you’ll receive Peacock Premium at the discounted rate of $2.99/mo for 12 months before being billed at the regular monthly rate. "

So I signed up yesterday, July 1, 2023.

Then I received a confirmation email that stated "Once your offer ends, you won't need to do a thing to keep enjoying your subscription. You'll simply see a charge of $4.99 per month plus taxes and fees when your plan automatically renews on Aug 1, 2023"

So am I getting the 12 months stated when I signed up or the one month stated in the confirmation?

Hey @user_247743,

 

Thank you for visiting our official Xfinity Community Forums support page. It sounds like you have successfully subscribed to Peacock. As your message states, once the promotional offer ends, you will be billed at the regular monthly rate. 

 

We would recommend visiting the Peacock Help Center where you can chat, manage your account, and more. As we do not have access to your Peacock account and billing information, Peacock support should be able to assist you with any further comments or concerns.

@XfinityDemitrius​ you are entirely missing the issue here: Your company's promotional offer is good for one year. Upon acceptance of that offer, the confirmation email your company sends states it is only good for one month. This needs to be corrected and clarified immediately to all your customers. You're confusing the heck out of everyone who signs up and it's frustrating! So is your not being able to understand this simple yet important issue!!!

Hello, @user_0d393f and thread. I apologize for any confusion on the dates for Peacock. The issue behind the scenes is when Peacock is being redeemed our billing system is not adding the coding. For a lot of folks, we have done that manually. One of our systems will send out the emails based on when it was redeemed on your end. The true date would be when it is added in our billing system. Then the email showing one month is incorrect, and I will send that feedback along. The redemption may be good for 1 month, but you are correct that the pricing is good for 12 months. That is also reflected on our website, https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/peacock-subscription-faqs. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

The same thing happened to me, but with different dates!!  I called yesterday and the Xfinity agent had to try all different things to try and get me the $2.99 for 12 months offer. Nothing worked. Then today, I went into the Peacock app on my iPad and saw under plans that I have the $2.99 offer. But on my tv under subscriptions it still shows I have the same thing you do - the free one month promo that will go to $4.99 on July 27, 2023. I’m totally stumped. I’m wondering if I’ll be billed for two subscriptions - the $2.99 offer which seems to be on my Peacock app on my ipad, and the $4.99 after my free month promo ends. What a mess.

Hi There,

I have an issue trying to redeem the offer. It always goes to page with 5.99$/month. I would need to know the status of the ticket I have open [Edited: "Personal Information"]. Thank you.

I just wrote a whole diatribe about the latest in this whole Peacock saga, but of course the entire entry got wiped out after they made me register for the forum. Chalk another one up [Edited: "Inflammatory/Language"]. They really need to get it together.

Same thing just happened to me. I also tried to redeem the Peacock promotion and it brought me to a $5.99 page. So today I received an email from Peacock that it was the last day to redeem the promotion with a redeem button which when I clicked brought me to the same $5.99 page. I signed up thinking it would show a discount but it didn't. I contacted Peacock and they said they could cancel it out and to go through the xfinity email or to contact xfinity. Very frustrating.

My 2.99 12 month Peacock subscription was recently cancelled without explanation.  I tried contacting someone , as well as talking with all the "chat bots".  However, it's all just a hamster wheel at this point.  I just got the 2.99 subscription in June or July, and by September 21, 2023 my 12month subscription was cancelled without warning or explanation.  Xfinity nor Peacock can explain the sudden renigging of this 1 year agreement after 3 months of service.

Did you not see where they already shared that a chat doesn't answer why a 12 month agreement was canceled?....

I’m having the same issue as user_d34d0e. Peacock was cancelled without warning or reason despite my having paid for it. I’ve been on the phone with agent after agent since last night trying to get me to pay for the 5.99 plan so the recommendation here is useless. Please reinstate the service being provided by paying customers, as this was meant to be a 12 month agreement. Mine started 7/1/2023 and ended yesterday.

I did that already. I’ve been on the phone with you all for hours and the only solution I’ve gotten is that it was auto-canceled on your end and that I’ll now have to pay 5.99 for it. Your solution isn’t helping.

Reaching us here is different than reaching out on the Xfinity Assistant, and we'd love to provide any additional support we can since the traditional methods you've used have not brought an amicable result for you.

@XfinityAlfonso​ Reaching you and reaching any of the 8 agents I've spoken to who have submitted 4 tickets as far back as 2 weeks ago (none of which have been resolved because "they're working very hard to figure out the issue before calling back") is no different.

You guys have agreements with customers to provide Peacock for 12 months at 2.99/month. It appears there was no intention to honor this agreement as xFinity canceled it early, and then updated its policies to those on this page immediately after to reflect that customers would need to have high-speed internet (likely meaning they'd need to upgrade) or be a Silver or Diamond customer (who has been with the company for 7+ years) to get free Peacock or pay the same amount they were expecting for the remaining months. It is no coincidence to me that our services were canceled right before this Silver/Diamond wanna-be airline members club policy was published.

The live chat is not the answer here. It is offensive to offer this as a solution, as if we don't know how to use a chat feature. I need you to please respond with the remediation steps for getting these customers the services in the agreement you reneged on. It is quite simple.

My wife and I received an email saying get Peacock Premium for $2.99 for up to 12 months. We are Xfinity customers. 

The email states “redeem” with a link. Once we get transferred to Peacocktv.com. We log in.

The plans are for $5.99. There is no $2.99 option for Xfinity customers.

This email also states valid until 01/15/2023.

We are having the same issue as stated in all other comments on this thread.
