Cannot Unlink Peacock

Hi Team,

I am trying to unlink Peacock from Xfinity. I am getting charged $16.99 for premium plus through Xfinity - it can be seen on my bill. When I go to Peacock to manage my subscription, it says "Manage on Xfinity". When I go to Xfinity, it shows that I am enrolled in the complimentary Premium version - not premium plus. I spoke to a rep via chat and they said I have two accounts. One is premium and the other is premium plus (I was not aware of this at all).

My priority is unlinking my Peacock account from Xfinity so I can manage the subscription through Peacock in the future. If that is somehow impossible (seems fraudulant), can you at least help me cancel premium plus through Xfinity? Peacock is saying my billing is managed by a third party (Xfinity) so they can't do anything.

The complimentary Premium is not even activated. That's why I'm confused as to why I'm getting billed. I don't have a streaming box, so this is what I see on Peacock and Xfinity's website:

@user_2cuj9s I'm working through the same issue on this thread: https://forums.xfinity.com/conversations/billing/downgrade-peacock-premium-plus/6830a8f83099de00635b6d39?commentId=68a8c8feea01394ee1484cb9 I, too, cannot remove the Premium Plus after signing up through Xfinity, nor can I unlink my Peacock account via the link provided on the Xfinity webpage.

@josa93 Thanks for the heads up. Absolutely ridiculous - especially as they are charging me for it with no obvious (or even un-obvious) way to cancel. I am working through it with a support agent in DM's but they advised it would be a few days. If there is any information I can offer once the process hopefully completes, I will send a follow up. Unless it's a "we sorted this out in our back end" kind of fix.

I've spoke to over 10 representatives at peacock and Xfinity and no one can figure out how to unlink my peacock from Xfinity and there's no way for for for me to upgrade my peacock. They told me I just need to start a new email address and sign up for peacock again which is ridiculous. I will be canceling the Xfinity Internet service because they are purposely doing this to force us to look at ads and not letting us unlink or control our accounts. [Edited: "Inflammatory"]
