Peacock, Disney+/Hulu Activation issues

Hi! I recently purchased service and am experiencing the issue described by various other posts on the forum where the "Xfinity.com/yoursubscriptions" doesn't give an option to activate, and navigating to the "activate-peacock" gives the error "not available for your account". I've troubleshot on an hour long chat with a representative, then called a representative for 30 minutes and both gave me a "your service will be restored in X hours, just wait." Having waited, I'm hopeful an Xfinity employee could respond to this with:

1. A thorough description of the activation service status; If there's a problem with your website, put up a banner that says so and save yourselves angry customers and extra support calls.

2. Any potential resolution (if possible) for said issue, in the chat where other users can follow it. I saw some users experience success after an employee directed them to DMs.

Any amount of communication beyond "uh... it might be broken right now, try again in 36 hour" would be greatly appreciated.

@xfinity ,Any progress , I'm having the same issue not being able to activate Disney+hulu , it seems like a week should be time enough to correct the issue for your customers.

Thanks for reaching out to us, unfortunately as @XfinityAlyssaA mentioned there's a known issue with some customers being able to see the activation screen. Our back end team is working to get this resolved but at this current time there's no workaround. We recommend that you keep checking the subscription page to see if the activation link is available for you until this issue is resolved

OP here. I didn’t get any further response from this or any of my other avenues through which I talked to Xfinity, but after 5-6 days of no progress I opened the /yoursubscriptions page and the activation buttons were there. I don’t think my calls or chats or forum posts were what did anything.I’d guess that it’d activate for you soon, I wouldn’t waste my time and energy talking to people who don’t have any ability to help you.
