Peacock subscription

My package includes peacock premium and yet when I logged in using the same email as goes with my Xfinity account it required me to pay $10.99 and set up a monthly account. How can this be addressed to be included in that cost?

Hey there, user_e2d3b7! Thanks for reaching out to us this wonderful evening. I know it's super exciting to start watching your free Peacock premium included from your offer, and I am sorry to hear you ran into a pit stop while trying to redeem your free subscription. Not to worry, you have reached the right team to help you set up your Peacock account! To activate your free Peacock Premium subscription, you must complete the activation process through Xfinity first. If you already paid for a new Peacock subscription, you will need to cancel it from Peacock to be able to proceed with redeeming your free subscription. Please follow these steps below afterward.

-Start at the Xfinity website. Do not go directly to Peacock. Open a web browser and visit xfinity.com/activate-peacock. You can also try going through the Xfinity Assistant by visiting xfinity.com/xfinityassistant and looking for the "Activate Now" banner for Peacock.
-Sign in to Xfinity. Log in using your primary Xfinity ID and password. Using a different email address will prevent the system from recognizing your eligibility.
-Activate Peacock. Select the "Activate Peacock" button. This will redirect you to the Peacock website to complete the process.
-Complete Peacock account setup. Enter the email address and password you want to use for your Peacock account. You can use your existing Peacock credentials if you have them. If not, follow the prompts to create a new account.
Confirm activation.
-You should see a confirmation message, and you can begin watching Peacock Premium at no extra cost. 🤩

Let me know if you have any additional questions, as we are always happy to help!

Unfortunately that's what I tried yesterday and the message I got was that my subscription is not qualified for this activation. I was 3 hours and two different people on Xfinity chat and no resolution. My bill clearly list that I get peacock premium at no cost. No one seems to be able to simply go to my account and enable it. I understand the activation process but it simply doesn't let me activate it. I think they're probably is something to do with the fact that I moved from one address to another and that that address I had peacock through Xfinity I know somehow it's not reactivating.

@user_e2d3b7 , You bring up a great point! We have seen a few issues with the peacock service when completing a transfer of service. With this being 3rd party service peacock can often get the accounts linked quicker than we can. Have you reached out directly to peacock by chance?

That was what I was going to try and do next was contacting peacock directly. Do you have the best to contact them to get a person and not just a chat?

user_e2d3b7 If you go here (https://www.peacocktv.com/help), you should see a chat window on the bottom right of the screen. This is currently the only way to reach out to their support team.
