Peacock is busted in new ways...

Can anyone help me with this?

  1. I've been on the "free" Peacock, and I recently started paying the $5 / month extra for no ads.
  2. Yesterday the "free" Peacock stopped working.  (As expected.)
  3. When I logged into Peacock, it showed that I wasn't subscribed at all, but it still showed me paying $5 / month for no ads.
  4. I'm both a gigabit customer and a platinum rewards customer, so this morning I claimed the Peacock offer that showed up in my rewards.
  5. I eventually got an activation email, and I did get the banner in the app.
  6. I tried twice to use my existing Peacock account in the activation process, but it acted like I was already subscribed.
  7. The banner disappeared from the app after a couple of tries.
  8. I did the online chat with Peacock support, and they canceled my $5 / month for no ads.
  9. I'd like to try the activation process again, but I can't because the banner disappeared.  (Is that a subscriber-specific link?  Or just some generic link for everyone?)
  10. My rewards stuff already shows the free Peacock reward as "claimed", so I'm not sure I can do anything from that perspective.

Is there a path forward for me?  Or do I just have to live with my abject failure?

Thanks.

Hey, @user_eb6cc8! Thanks for reaching out to us on the forums! We’re aware some customers are having difficulty activating their Peacock account. 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. Please let us know if you have any issues or questions!

@XfinityMichaelC​ It would be more accurate to say 2 or 3 customers aren't having issues signing up for it. I have always linked my account to Peacock and it doesn't work. People like me were the shortest path and should have never had a problem.

I think my reply got eaten, so sorry if I double post.

But unfortunately, all I get is the generic messages in the chat window.  There's no banner and nothing whatsoever to do with Peacock.  :(
