activating peacock - is it really included?

I clicked the link in my email to "activate Peacock" it took me to the activation FAQ page. When I click on the link to manage or add subscriptions, it just shows Peacock as "included with your plan" no activation links/buttons.

When I log into Peacock with my Xfinity credentials, videos are not available (just options to subscribe.)

I went through this multiple time. Some of them resulting in the "activation" page stalling out or caught in a loop.

I tried the Chat Help on the Xfinity site and was told, after waiting, and waiting - that on their end they saw nothing indicating that I was supposed to have Peacock and I should call the Toll free number. 

If this is a ploy to force you to call so a high pressure salesperson can try to upsell streaming packages, Im don with Comcast XFinity

Hello, @user_ux4w45 have you tried signing into the Xfinity app to see if you have a Peacock activation banner? This is the next thing I would try. If you have Gigabit service or higher, you will have a Peacock promotion option inside our app.

I'm experiencing the same issues with the app. There are no activate links or banners. Although I did notice something strage. On the customise your plan page it has my current internet plan listed as:

100Mbps Plan

Download speeds: up to 1200 Mbps

Upload speeds: up to 35 Mbps

I have the emails confirming my upgrade to 1200 Mbps (previously 600 mbps) and I am getting the upgraded speed.

Is it possible that this could be linked to my problem?
