Cannot activate Peacock

I have until the 9th of Jan to activate my account. I have been promised help by Xfinity but still months later. I cannot activate my account. Does any one have any advice?

No unsolicited messages were sent. I actually screenshotted them and made a complaint with the FCC. Hopefully they can help me.

The concern is not related to Xfinity Compliments................... Topic moved here to the proper help section.

Same here.  Was on the chat and phone with overseas reps. First one said that I had an older package, so we changed it (for the better).  Disney+ and Hulu activated fine.  Selecting the purple activate button for Peacock take me straight to an error page with some square head (with x eyes) and a "something went wrong message".  The last "rep" told me that I had to wait a day.

Any solution would be great.

 Yes. I spent 4 hours, yesterday morning, with chat and on the phone with tier-whatever support. Clearing cache, using incognito mode, using a different browser (Edge), trying different ways to get to the same "activate" prompt, all with the same result.  Blank web page with a square, stick-drawing, head with X's for eyes and a frown.  Message underneath says, "something went wrong, please try again".

However activating Disney+ / Hulu, using the same method, worked fine.
