the same old story of Peacock account being linked to another account

Recently moved. trying to continue to use the same peacock since it has the viewing history of the household, etc. plus, how many times and emails do I have to set up just to watch TV?

The person on the phone when first getting everything activated was useless. the chat bot keeps telling me to try again later, and Through searching for fixes, making a post and waiting to be directed to send a direct message seems like best bet. however- also to note the instructions say to click the new message icon in the top right corner- pencil and paper icon- it doesn't exist for me. Just wanting to get this sorted before too long. already been a couple of weeks without.

I have, and just did again a minute ago. Now all I get is an hourglass under the peacock logo where the “activate” button should be.
