Getting Peacock error message when I try to activate

Whenever I try to activate the free premium Peacock, it spins for a second and then takes me to a page saying something went wrong. I’ve tried this more than 10 times now. Why won’t it let me activate it?

user_ukv28j thank you for using the Xfinity Community Forums page to reach out regarding your Peacock activation concerns. Have you previously had access to Peacock Premium before?

@XfinityMarcus​ yes, I have.  I went into peacock to change my email on there because I thought that might help but it didn’t.

thank you for clarifying that for us, have you recently moved to a new location by chance?

@user_ukv28j Got it, this usually only happens when customers move. Have you logged back in to the Peacock account to see if it activated? The billing section will say if it's done through Xfinity.

It doesn’t show I have a plan at all on that account so it wasn’t activated through Xfinity.
