Peacock Premium says activated but won't show up as activated in the Peacock App

I recently started an internet plan and received a free 2-year Peacock Premium subscription. I went to activate it today and after I signed in using my xfinity account, Peacock said I didn't have premium. I tried on my laptop, phone, and TV and still no matter what I still cannot access my premium subscription. All I'm looking for is a way to contact support directly either from Xfinity or Peacock, but every time I try I keep getting sent to either an unhelpful FAQ page or a stupid AI chatbot that can't help at all. I tried all the other fixes I could find on this forum but nothing worked. I would appreciate any help! I have added screenshots that not only prove that I have a subscription but also that both means of signing in won't work.

Hey @user_m8hq4w, Thank you for visiting our official Xfinity Forums Community support page. We greatly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience regarding the Peacock Premium activation issues. I would be more than happy to offer my assistance looking into this further for you.

 

I hope I can get this resolved for you as soon as possible. I greatly appreciate the screenshots. I certainly know the Peacock subscription is on everyone's mind right now in order to get access to all the Paris 2024 Olympics content.

 

With the screenshots provided, it appears that you are using an incorrect email address. Would you be able to try and another email addresses you may have access to? A great way to tell if there is a subscription added, is that you would be directed to a log in page versus the "Choose a Subscription" page. 

 

Could you please try your other email addresses and see if you get directed to a log in/password page? We will be standing by awaiting your reply.

I don't see how I used the wrong email address? I used the same email address I used for Xfinity I used for Peacock and that seemed like what you're supposed to do based on the instructions on the website. All the screenshots I posted were logged in using the same email address, which is the email address that I use for xfinity

I have been having the same issues for over a month. Gave up trying to even log in at this point but we want to watch the Olympics and other stuff on peacock. How did this get resolved? Tried literally everything and even talked to someone for over an hour. even he could not resolve it.

I have been having this problem forever and cannot get any resolution no matter how many customer service people at both xfinity/comcast and Peacock are involved. They blame each other but the bottom line, as a Diamond customer, I am the one that is getting [Edited: "Language"] over here. This forum has answers, why is Xfinity only giving it to the OP through a DM? Share the answers with the rest of us please.

@user_8ausfg the answer to the issue may be different for each customer. There's more than one issue we tend to see. Feel free to send us a DM. Once we work on the account we will share the answer if we can resolve the issue.

I'm having the same issue too. I have premium on my Xfinity account but when I try to sign into Peacock, it tell me I have to subscribe to premium. I was just on the on phone for an hour with three different people trying to resolve this. There's a NFL game on tonight and I don't think this issue will be resolved before kickoff. I'm so irked
