Free peacock premium reward not working

I’m a platinum member and have been unable to get my free peacock premium reward. My rewards page says it has been claimed. When I clicked the link in xfinity assistant it took me to peacock. I signed in and all seemed good. But when I closed the app and tried to open it again it said I do not have a current subscription. It gives me two paid options to choose. Peacock says it’s an Xfinity issue and I do not have a current subscription. I have been in contact with a live agent at Xfinity at least 4 times and tickets issued. Never hear back and issue still not resolved. I’m very frustrated that I can’t get the free subscription that I qualify for. Can someone please resolve this for me.

Hey, same problem here!!!  Its been over 2 weeks trying to get this sorted out with various agents.  I am a Platinum Customer and have been trying to activate my Peacock Premium reward with no success.  On the live chat, on the phone, several hours...why is this so hard?!  The website and redemption system is clearly broken, why can't someone in support just activate Peacock Premium on my account and not bill me for it?!  Why is this so difficult?  I do not even blame the agents trying to troubleshoot within a severly complicated and broken system, but rewards mean nothing when you cannot even use them.

I am having the same issue. Have spent hours with support and it still does not work.  There is something I really wanted to watch on tomorrow, so this will probably be the last straw that finally makes me cut the cord and just purchase a few different streaming services.

We are experiencing the same issue as most of the posters on this thread.
We are Diamond tier rewards members and had claimed the Peacock Premium reward but have not been able to access Peacock Premium content on our television. When we try to access premium content a message saying we need to subscribe shows up with the two subscription options.
I contacted Xfinity through the app, hoping for a resolution, and was shuffled from one rep to another with no remedy to the problem. The representative then suggested we go ahead and follow the prompts to subscribe at the premium level, and that Xfinity would apply a refund each month, though when I tried to ’subscribe’ to Peacock premium level" a message appeared on the screen saying, “Action not supported BE already active”. 
 At that point (actually, when speaking with the initial customer service agent, supposedly a ticket was created (I have screen shots from the ‘chat’), then was told they would have someone call me the following morning, Saturday, sometime after 10 a.m. I expressed that, despite similar reassurances, we had not had good experiences in the past with follow through on phone contact, and was told once again that someone would definitely call the next day. Needless to say communicating with someone through the app was a complete waste of time (from 9:50pm - 10:43pm) and, essentially, an exercise in futility. Nothing was remedied, and no follow up call was received. Later the following day I e-mailed an employee at our local Xfinity store, who has been helpful in the past, asking whether he could provide a solution or how I could best get this resolved, and I haven't gotten a reply from him, either.
The reward is still active on our account and we can access the premium content on my computer, but we continue to hit the same dead end when trying to access content through our TV.
The instructions given to other posters as to how to direct message are not helpful, as there is no 'direct message' icon on the upper right corner of this page. I would appreciate a response as soon as possible as we have been trying to resolve this now for close to 3 weeks. Thank you.

I finally seem to have resolved this issue, as well as a problem we encountered a couple of days ago with hulu, which we have through Xfinity, not working on our television. I appreciated and did follow the directions to direct message, and the representative was reassuring that our reward was registered on our bill, so we should not receive any charges for Peacock Premium. The representative suggested we register and subscribe at the Peacock Premium level and that, despite the message saying that would incur a $5.99/month charge, we would not be charged. The only problem was, when I tried to 'subscribe', as I had been advised by another representative a month, or so, ago to do... I was met with the identical result I had experienced before - a message appeared that said "Action not supported BE already active", resulting in a never ending circle that likely indicated Xfinity already had us registered for Premium. Ultimately, the solution came from a Peacock representative who I had contacted a couple of days ago.. and who had advised us to sign out of our Peacock account on our television, and then log back in, manually entering the e-mail address and password. I think there may have been an issue with the 'account holder' e-mail that had been used, even though my husband is the primary on our Xfinity account and he had also registered for Peacock Premium though our Diamond Reward. I signed in using my e-mail and the Peacock password that I had established when activating / clicking through to the Peacock website through Xfinity (note - not my Xfinity password). I hope this may help some of you who are still struggling with getting this reward.

@user_2eba7f We appreciate the information being posted here for others to see who may be going through the same thing. One point of clarification regarding Peacock Premium already being registered in the account. This is not always the case, if others are having issues redeeming the Peacock Premium Offer or logging in to confirm they have it at no cost, please reach out to us, and we will be happy to check and go from there.

Hey there, @user_6gxvyo! Thanks for reaching out regarding your Peacock Premium account. We would be happy to help you with troubleshooting your account so you can watch all of the awesome content on Peacock on your TV. May I ask what troubleshooting steps you have tried? When it was activated, did you set up your peacock email with your XFINITY ID/email? What happens when you log in to the Peacock app with your Peacock email and password?

I have been dealing with the Peacock issue since Sept 2023. I have spoken to live agents, used the chat feature, created direct message tickets. None of these options have gotten me any closer to any resolution. I am ready to just give up on any Xfinity support being able to fix this for me. Based on all the complaints from other Xfinity customers, you would think this could get corrected. I don't even read any of the reward emails, since my experience with the only one I applied for went so poorly. All the conversations start out exactly the same, thank for being a Platinum customer and we value your loyalty! Then after spending time on the merry go round, we are escalating this up and expect to hear a response very soon. Blah, Blah, Blah

I've had the EXACT SAME experience. I've spent hours on the phone and hours in chats for months with Xfinity agents who keep promising me it's fixed but it's not. When I go to On-Demand to look for my free movies, anything on Peacock shows it will be a free movie. But then when I try to watch it, it tells me I have to subscribe. ABSOLUTELY FRUSTRATING!!!

Having problems with sign in with my free Peacock diamond reward and with the Xfinity plan we are under . Nether free versions of Peacock will let us sign in without picking a plan to pay. I’ve got ECS tickets. Numerous support and hours and hours of trying, Xfinity..,you can do better for your customers! This is going on way too long and it should be fixed! I one repair guy tell me that they don’t offer it even though they say it’s free.
