Charging for Peacock Premium is starting soon!

I have been getting emails saying Peacock Premium will no longer be free. Starting 6/26 it will be charging a "discount rate" of $2.99/mo for 12 months. But, I am seeing others saying there's an "Xfinity Reward" for free access to Peacock Premium for "longtime, loyal Xfinity customers". For example:

https://forums.xfinity.com/conversations/xfinity-compliments/peacock-premium/64840625780f7e2eebd4c51d

Can anyone explain who exactly is considered a "longtime, loyal Xfinity customer"? Just a quick check, I have been an xfinity customer for at least 22 years... Is that long enough to get this Xfinity Reward offer for continued free access to Peacock Premium?

Hey @tzr916,

 

Thank you for taking the time to visit our Xfinity Community Forums support page. I appreciate you showing interested in our NBC Universals Peacock streaming service. 

 

As you are aware, Peacock Premium will no longer be included for new and existing Xfinity video and Flex customers. Beginning June 26, existing customers will lose access to Peacock Premium. Existing Peacock Premium subscribers will need to resubscribe via their X1 or Flex set-top box.

 

Starting on June 26th, Peacock Premium offers will be available for Xfinity Gigabit+ Internet and select Xfinity Rewards customers (Platinum/Diamond). Offers will not be provided until then. You can review our Xfinity Rewards program by visiting our Xfinity Rewards – FAQs support page.

@XfinityDemitrius​ Hi.  So today is June 26, 2023.  When I check my Xfinity Rewards program (I am a Diamond Member), I do not see an offer for Peacock Premium.  Is it not posted yet?  Am I looking in the wrong place?  I have received an email with a link to the Rewards page, but there is no offer for Peacock.  Thanks.

@XfinityDemitrius I am a gigabit internet customer and received an email a few weeks ago regarding my Peacock Premium staying active through 2025 but I do not see anywhere to activate it again since it was canceled either last night or this morning. Please point me in the right direction.

@sarcasticsuperherogirl​ Was it actually cancelled last night? Have you tried to watch it today? I would call, or chat with them.

@dacr60​   I'm seeing the same thing.  I don't see anything up on the rewards page yet either.

@dacr60​ I am also a Diamond member and you are not looking in the wrong place. Xfinity hasn't listed yet.

If you go to https://customer.xfinity.com/rewards you can see what is available. If you have been a continuous customer for 22 years, you should be Diamond level. Your level is simply how long you have been a customer. If you moved recently, but kept service, it may be a bit off and you can have customer service correct it.

I can add nothing on Rewards page, yet. Also, for non-rewards customers, you are supposed to get a code in the mail to apply the discount.

To be honest, I think having a national cutoff date is stupid. It should have been based on your billing cycle, so it's more spread out.

The reward just popped up on mine. When you click it, you are sent an email with instructions. There is a note it could take up to 2 hours to get it.

@bluehaze911​   I'm not seeing it on mine yet.  Maybe they're just taking a while getting it to all of the members?

@andyross​ What should we expect to happen when we redeem this reward? Is it Peacock Premium for LIFE? or 12 months? or 30 days? or???

EDIT: Never mind, I found the link and it appears to be for life.

@tzr916​ Did you get it to work? I still haven't seen the offer in my email or on the reward page.

Someone said on Twitter: 
I've just been informed by @XfinitySupport that the [free Peacock Premium offer] has been delayed for 24 hours.

https://twitter.com/ElisaSDavis/status/1673421940625666067?s=20

Maybe we'll get it eventually?

According to this link: https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/peacock-subscription-faqs and the email I recieved...you should also be able to receive Peacock if you have gig speed internet.

I have spent the last two hours trying to get this Peacock situation to work and all Xfinity does is talk in circles.

When will we be able to use Peacock again? It says we should still be able to use if we are gig speed b internet users but I don’t have access anymore. I talked to someone earlier who referred me to the rewards page that doesn’t show it they’re either.

@user_456516​ Just normal [Edited: "Inflammatory"]. They will get around to it eventually.

@user_456516 It should be available now if you previously linked your Peacock account with your X1 or Flex service. If not, you would need to follow the process noted at the link you provided earlier. If that still doesn't get it to show up for you, then we would need to take a closer look via Direct Message. You can do that by clicking the chat icon in the upper right corner of the page, click on the pen and paper icon, then enter “Xfinity Support” in the “To” section. We would then need your full name and complete street address to get the ball rolling.

@XfinityFrank​ My Peacock account has always been linked to my [Edited: "Inflammatory/Language"] account and your vague instructions, which have been there all day, aren't going to solve the issue. I need what I pay for. Thanks.

Has anyone been able to claim their Peacock reward yet?  I got the email, but when I click on 'activate now' all I'm getting is redirected to the Xfinity website instead of Peacock's website.

@user_4e8b3b​ The email says to click on the Peacock banner but I do not see a Peacock banner when I sign into my account.  Has anyone figured out how this works or what needs to be done?  Thanks.

Please try to head over to the Xfinity assistant chat, sign in, and you should see the banner at the top of the chat. Here is the link

@dacr60​ Same here... After redeeming Peacock reward, I got the first email showing a full breakdown of my new bill with Peacock showing $0.00. But there was a second email with a link to "activate" and it just goes to my account page OR an error message about "technical difficulties"... Then if I go to the Peacock website, login, look at my account, it says "Not Subscribed... choose a plan"!

EDIT: The "activate" button finally showed up on the second email link. I clicked it and it redirected me to Peacock and after signing in, everything is GOOD. It now shows Peacock Premium billed by xfinity! Thank you Xfinity!

@tzr916​ I got a similar "your order is confirmed" email with a breakdown of charges, and it's making me nervous because it's confusing and doesn't match the plan I thought I had! (It looks crazy--I counted nine listings for cable boxes (I have 4) and four listings each for TV and internet).
Now I've got to research this and see what's going on. Hopefully activating this offer didn't cause problems for me. 
Glad you got your issue sorted!

Just a comment. The Peacock + I had on my computer was replaced wit an opening page stating to either sign up or sign up later. We do not have to worry about being billed for it It's gone for us.

@user_ecbc4f Have you unplugged your cable box from the power, and restarted? This would refresh your services. It would allow Peacock to update the box and populate automatically which is what is happening with our Gigabit customers.

Could you please sign in to your account online and see if there is an activation banner? If you’re not seeing an activation banner on xfinity.com/account, please go to Xfinity Assistant and select Sign In. The activation banner should appear at the top of the chat and should work once you click it. We apologize for any inconvenience and thank you for being an Xfinity customer.
