Unable to active the premium peacock subscription through xfinity.

Hello, I keep getting this error message, "Your Xfinity account is already linked to another Peacock account." I have tried all possible email accounts, and none work. Peacock customer service also confirmed none of the email accounts I tried have a paid subscription. This issue has been ongoing for over a year. Also, I do not see the direct message button (that should be on the top right) to contact xfinity support directly via direct message. I can confirm I am signed in to this forum.

 Good afternoon vmurga. I would be happy to assist you with this further. I will need some additional information. 

Please send us a direct chat message with your full name and complete service address to “Xfinity Support”. To do so, click on the chat icon located at the top right of this forums page.

 

To send a "Direct Message" to Xfinity Support:

 

Click "Sign In" if necessary

Click the "Direct Messaging" icon or  https://forums.xfinity.com/direct-messaging

Click the "New message" (pencil and paper) icon
The "To:" line prompts you to "Type the name of a person". Instead, type "Xfinity Support" there

As you are typing a drop-down list appears. Select "Xfinity Support" from that list

An "Xfinity Support" graphic replaces the "To:" line

Type your message in the text area near the bottom of the window and press Enter to send it.

I'm having the same exact problem and also do not see the direct message button. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Update, you'll be able to see the direct message button once you make a post about your issue. Not sure why a post is required to be able to direct message them.

Update: Peacock customer service got back to me via email first before xfinity support could further look into this issue (via direct message). Peacock provided me with a 24 month of peacock premium at no charge (via an offer code). I did have to enter a credit card but once you enter the offer code, the total cost shows as $0 and offer end date shows as 8/23/2027.

Peacock stated that after the 24-month code expires, I can contact them again to see if I continue to be eligible for the offer and they would provide a new offer code. I qualified for the premium peacock because I am an xfinity Diamond rewards member. 

I first contacted Peacock via their chat feature today and they got back to me within 2 hours via email with the offer code. So definitely recommend reaching out to Peacock if xfinity support is not able to resolve today. Hope this helps!
