Peacock Subscription Activations

**UPDATE 07/18/2023**

We’re aware some customers may have been having an issue activating their Peacock Premium plan. Peacock and their technology partner have implemented a fix and you should now be able to activate your subscription.

Please try again and thank you for your patience.

For additional information, please see our Peacock subscription changes and FAQs article

I signed up for email replies whenever someone posts to this thread.  On 8/20, user @user_d653b7 posted that they filed a (F)(C)(C) complaint and were able to get their issues resolved.  I noticed that post has since been deleted.  Perhaps that is the way to actually get some results.  After 2 months, forum posts, tickets, and tech support have not resolved anything.  I'm sure this post will get deleted too, so good luck everyone.

@randman11​ Looks like the orginal comment is back, but edited.  I guess they don't like the letters "eff" "see" "see" mentioned.  Ha Ha.

Almost two months gone on my "free" Peacock Premium and still no way to activate. I have tried everything within these forums and I have never received a banner. I am a gig+ subscriber and a Diamond rewards member. I was able to claim the reward on July 5th and received the email. The link however, takes me to the standard Xfinity Assistant with no banner or card regarding Peacock. I talked to customer service and I've been to an Xfinity store in person and all I get is a run around. I get plenty of other banners/cards about my bill, service interruptions, etc. The fact that this thread was updated to say the issue has been resolved is extra frustrating. It is not resolved!

@welovepsu​ ,  Mine shows as receiving it on the bill, but the message after signing into account says peacock can’t be connected to Xfinity and that I might already be receiving it. 😂🙄🤬 Frustrating.

@welovepsu​ , same here just the run around. They also had me get the Flex streaming device for this that also did not work. I’m worried that this is all just smoke and mirrors. I haven’t been able to use Peacock for almost 2 months now. They tell me that they will check on this with “their team” daily until resolved. I agree that they should change the topic of this thread and remove resolved.

@user_d65312 Do you have a different email address that you can try signing into Peacock with? We recommend trying any email address associated with your account as well as email addresses that you might have used to access Peacock before.

Peacock is no longer part of Xfinity, starting in June and I received an email from Xfinity on June 7 that said they would offer $2.99/month for 12 months if I subscribed anytime between June 26 and August 25. I just had to say "peacock" into my voice remote and sign up through there.  Well, that option is not available and I have no clue how to redeem that promotion.  Did Xfinity change their mind and make the promotion only available until June 26? They should have emailed with this correction. 

Note: This comment was created from a merged conversation originally titled Peacock premium promotion

Good Afternoon @user_75cf5e thank you for taking he time to reach us here on Xfinity Forums with these Peacock redemption questions. Since June 26th we have had a dedicated thread opened that should help answer most questions regarding Peacock, and we'll leave that linked below. The way you redeem this depends on a few factors such as Xfinity Rewards Tier or if you have Gigabit/Gig Extra internet service.  The links in this thread will direct you on how to redeem.

@XfinityAlfonso​ Thanks, but I am still unable to redeem the promotion even though I followed the steps outlined in the "Peacock Subscription Changes and FAQs page that is linked in the separate thread you directed me to. I actually paid the full price in July when it occurred to me that there was a promotion email, but even after canceling, I would have been charged the full price and not the promotional price for "Customers Who Previously Received Peacock Premium With X1 or Flex Service But Are Not Eligible for the Offers Above".  I tried every which way to try to get to that promotion but to no avail.  Also, my account with Peacock is still active, but I don't see it under my "Apps and Subscriptions" as instructed on the "Manage Your Peacock Subscription on Xfinity" page.

If you have an active account you wouldn't see the offer for $2.99 a month for 12 months. You would manage your subscription on Peacocks website. Are you able to visit https://www.peacocktv.com/help/article/cancellation ?

 

  • Log in to your account.

  • Go to Plans & Payments.

  • Select Change or Cancel Plan

  • Select Cancel Plan.

  • Once confirmed, you will see a confirmation message on screen and receive a confirmation email, which may take a few hours. Your plan will not renew at the end of your current billing cycle.

I was instructed by xfinity customer service to sign up directly with Peacock when the subscription activation was not working and that I would be credited on my xfinity bill to offset the charge. That has not happened and I have paid for two months at 5.99 each directly to peacock that I would like a refund for.

@user_5cd304​ they told me that also and I said NO! I was not taking the chance of that happening when it is their own incompetence that is causing this issue. I can not even submit a new ticket for it anymore. I have started the process of moving my services to a different company.

What am I supposed to do to activate this?  I received an email from Xfinity saying that "no action is required", yet I'm not able to start the Peacock app without signing in, so clearly I need to do something.  When I try to start the app it tells me to "sign in to your Xfinity account" and then "Follow the steps there to activate Peacock Premium", but there are no instructions displayed when I sign in, nor when I visit xfinity.com/account.  The Xfinity Assistant chatbot is beyond worthless.  I even tried going directly to peacocktv.com and creating an account with my Xfinity account email address, but I can't proceed without entering my credit card, which I'm not going to do.

So what are the steps here?  What actions do I need to take to activate my (supposedly) free Peacock Premium subscription?

Hello @user_58e4e4, thanks for reaching out for help with your Peacock activation.

By chance did you already re-try the known steps to claim/activate your Peacock Premium offer? Xfinity Rewards Diamond and Platinum members with Xfinity Internet can redeem a special offer for Peacock Premium at no additional cost from the Xfinity Rewards website. You must be enrolled in Xfinity Rewards to take advantage of the offer. You’ll then receive an email with instructions on how to activate your offer.

If you are a Gigabit speed internet customer with Xfinity, you’ll receive a special offer for two years of Peacock Premium at no additional cost as long as you remain subscribed to Gigabit speed internet or higher from Xfinity. If you’re a new subscriber, you’ll need to activate your Peacock account, (this would be the same user ID you us to log into your Xfinity account). If you previously had a Peacock account, you should be able to sign in with your existing profile and accept the offer.

To activate this offer, there should be an Activation Banner when you log into your Xfinity account. However, if the banner is not there for you, please send us a PM, so we can make sure the Peacock Premium codes are on your account. Here are the detailed steps to direct message us:

• Click "Sign In" if necessary

• Click the "direct messaging" icon (upper right corner of this page)

• Click the "New message" (pencil and paper) icon

• Type "Xfinity Support" in the to line and select "Xfinity Support" from the drop-down list

• Type your message in the text area near the bottom of the window

• Press Enter to send your message


Please let me know if you have any questions or run into any problems.

I've gotten the emails and can see on my reward page I am eligible for the free Peacock Premium but despite going to Xfinity Assistant and my rewards page multiple times over the last couple of months I have never seen the Activation link.

[RESOLVED] I had much better luck by DM'ing Xfinity Support on Twitter. They were able to straighten this out in a couple of hours and now I have my free Peacock account.

@user_616208​ I feel your frustration. I can now add direct messaging within this forum to the list. Still no Peacock Premium, no reasons why or if/when there will ever be a resolution.

Follow-up, I received another message yesterday that my account was reset and to try the Assistant chat again. Lo and behold, the activation banner link was finally there and I was able to log into an active Peacock subscription again. It was through this forum that the issue was resolved so keep trying.

I received another update from support today, well not exactly an update.  "...have not been able to get this resolved just yet." 

Oh, and the Executive Customer Relations person I spoke with on Wednesday was going to give me an update on Thursday.  Still waiting for that update.

What a fantastic idea to roll this out!

Hello, 

it’s completely ridiculous that I cannot upgrade my peacock subscription to ad free after activation of my free premium peacock subscription through Xfinity. The only instructions I can find say that I can manage my subscription through my Xfinity tv box but I only have internet through Xfinity. When I sign into peacock it has a link to manage it on Xfinity and when I click the link it opens the general Xfinity app. I have tried several times to reach a person on both Xfinity and peacock chat but the bots are not connecting me to an agent.

How can we get someone within Xfinity senior management to see this? I would think they would want to know that they are putting out an offer to their highest level rewards customers, and then angering them by not having a process to receive the offer.

Hi I've tried for many months to get this offer and shows "claimed" and "exit" as only option in Rewards. Can someone resolve this specific issue? Spent over three hours in chat, no resolution. Something about a server being damaged?

I got an email today saying that my ticket is closed because they have a resolution.

[Edited: "Language"] is going on? I paid for Peacock and they reimbursed me.  I'll just keep doing this every month until they "fix" it
