Unable to activate Peacock. No button or option to activate even after navigating to link in email sent by Xfinity for Peacock activation.

Hi,

I am on Gigabit speed internet plan. I tried to navigate to https://customer.xfinity.com/activate-peacock or https://xfinity.com/yoursubscriptions and neither shows any button or links that allows me to activate the Peacock subscription. I only see a button for "Add & manage subscripts" which takes me to a page where I can add options to my plan.

Can someone from Xfinity please assist?

I tried using Xfinity chat, and support told me to contact Peacock instead, but Peacock had a link on their page telling me to contact Xfinity.

Thanks, Karl

I'm having the same exact issue. I can't find any activation button at any links that get sent to me. I also don't see any 'direct message' icon in the upper right corner of this page.

When I click the activate link in the email, it finally takes me to the activation page, but now it says there are no subscriptions to activate. I know this is not true. Please help.

I am having this exact same problem. I have contact at least 5 different representatives and nobody at Xfinity has been able to resolve this.

I am having the same issue. I too have spoken to at least 5 different support people that are unable to help. I have a current Peacock subscription that expires very soon and it will charge me $117/yr. Please issue a monthly credit to offset these charges. From my perspective you are engaging in false advertising and/or questionable competency.

Hi there, @user_8pmu6j! Our engineers are actively working on this so the free Peacock subscription can be activated. You will still get Peacock included for the set amount of time included with your plan once fixed. Do you subscribe to the yearly subscription directly through Peacock or do you have it billed through Xfinity? We can help to cancel that before you are charged if billed through us. Otherwise, you would reach out to Peacock directly for that.

I am having the same issue. Should I send a dm for assistance or is the current advice still just to wait? Thanks
