Your Xfinity account is already linked to another Peacock account?

I have xfinity diamond so I should have Peacock Premium. When I log into xfinity and Peacock, both websites say I don't have an active subscription. But when I try to activate the Peacock subscription, I get a message saying that "Your Xfinity account is already linked to another Peacock account".

Thanks for reaching out @user_ml18z! this sounds like a Peacock Premium activation or entitlement issue, and I can understand how frustrating it is when the subscription appears active but still won’t let you watch content.

 

To help narrow this down, can you please confirm a few details?

  1. When you sign in to Peacock and try to watch something, what exactly do you see?
    • Does it ask you to upgrade?
    • Does it show an error code?
    • Does it say your subscription is inactive?

 

  1. Have you signed in to Xfinity Membership and attempted to redeem the Peacock benefit there? For Platinum and Diamond Xfinity Rewards members, the Peacock offer must be redeemed through the Xfinity Membership portal before activation can complete. For steps on redeeming the offer, our official guide can be found here:

 

  1. Have you recently moved or transferred services to a new address? A move or account change can sometimes affect how the Peacock entitlement is linked.

 

You can also review the official activation steps here:
https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/peacock-premium-offers

 

Once we know what you’re seeing and whether the benefit was redeemed through Xfinity Membership, we can better determine whether this is a redemption issue, an activation issue, or an account-linking issue.

 

I see you’ve also sent us a Direct Message. Please be reminded that sending unsolicited Direct Messages to an Official Employee of the Xfinity Community Forum, is a violation of Forum Guidelines. In the future we ask that you please wait to be invited to send a direct message by an Official Employee.

I did send a direct message. Sorry I wasn't aware that I needed to be invited, I just saw that option in a different forum post.

1. When I log into peacock it says i have no subscriptions and asks me to upgrade.

2. I believe i have redeemed the peacock benefit on the xfinity membership screen because I click "activate" and it redirects me to peacock. when I enter my email on the peacock website to activate the benefit, i got the "already linked" error message.

3. I did just move and transfer service to a new address.

Thank you for confirming that information @user_ml18z, we appreciate it.

 

Have you had a chance to try unlinking your Xfinity accounts by following the steps outlined here: Switching Between Multiple Accounts?

 

If not, that would be a great next step. Alternatively, are you able to try using a different email address to see if that resolves the issue?

I have already unlinked all previous addresses so the only linked account to my xfinity account is my current address. 

I'm not sure if using a different email address would work. Because when I try to activate the Peacock benefit in Peacock, it says "Your Xfinity account is already linked to another Peacock account". So Peacock is saying the xfinity account is already linked to a different Peacock account, but the xfinity membership portal says I have not redeemed the benefit yet. A different Peacock account with different email address would likely yield the same result and error message.

Good morning @user_ml18z. I wanted to circle back here to confirm that after you spoke with Peacock support, you were able to activate your Peacock Premium XFINITY Reward. If you need anything else, please let us know.
