So, you're ready to cancel Peacock. Maybe you signed up for the Olympics, binged all of 'The Office' for the tenth time, or you're just tired of another subscription fee hitting your bank account. Peacock, launched by NBCUniversal in 2020, offers plans from $5.99 to $11.99 a month. We'll walk you through canceling on desktop, iOS, and Android. Getting this done can save you up to $120 a year. Let's get that money back in your pocket.
How to Cancel Peacock Subscription on Desktop
Canceling directly on the Peacock website is probably the most common way. Honestly, they make you click a few more times than necessary, but it's manageable. Just be prepared to scroll past an offer or two.
1 Log In to Your Account
First, head over to the PeacockTV.com website on your computer and log into your account.
2 Click Your Profile Icon
Find your profile icon, it's usually in the top-right corner of the screen. Give that a click.
3 Go to Your Account
From the dropdown menu, select Account. This is where all the billing stuff is hidden.
4 Find Your Plan
You'll see your current plan listed. Look for a link that says 'Change or Cancel Plan'. It might be smaller than you'd expect.
5 Select 'Cancel Plan'
Here's the annoying part. You'll have to scroll down past their offers to keep you. At the very bottom, you should see the option to 'Cancel Plan'. Click it.
6 Confirm the Cancellation
Peacock will ask you why you're leaving and might offer you a deal. Just push through and confirm your cancellation. You should get an email confirming it's done.
How to Cancel Peacock Subscription on iOS
If you signed up for Peacock using your Apple ID on an iPhone or iPad, you have to cancel it through Apple. You can't cancel it on the Peacock website. This is a common point of confusion.
1 Open the Settings App
On your iPhone or iPad, open the main Settings app (the gray gear icon).
2 Tap Your Apple ID
Tap on your Apple ID name right at the top of the screen.
3 Select 'Subscriptions'
Find and tap on the 'Subscriptions' option in the list.
4 Find the Peacock Subscription
You'll see a list of all your active and expired subscriptions. Find Peacock in the list and tap on it.
5 Tap 'Cancel Subscription'
At the bottom, you'll see a red 'Cancel Subscription' button. Tap that and then confirm your choice. Done. Apple makes this part pretty simple, thankfully.
How to Cancel Peacock Subscription on Android
Just like with Apple, if you subscribed through the Google Play Store, you must cancel it there. Trying to cancel on the Peacock website won't work and will just lead to frustration.
1 Open the Google Play Store
Open the Google Play Store app on your Android device.
2 Tap Your Profile Icon
Tap on your profile icon in the top-right corner of the store.
3 Go to 'Payments & subscriptions'
From the menu that pops up, select 'Payments & subscriptions'.
4 Tap 'Subscriptions'
Next, tap on 'Subscriptions' to see everything you're paying for through Google Play.
5 Select the Peacock Subscription
Find Peacock in your subscription list and tap on it to manage it.
6 Tap 'Cancel subscription'
You'll see an option at the bottom to 'Cancel subscription'. Tap it and follow the final prompts to confirm. Easy enough.
Cancel Peacock Subscription with live chat
Peacock really pushes you to use their online Help Center and chatbot. Getting a human can be a challenge. Your best bet is to go to the Peacock Help Center, click on a topic, and then look for the 'Get in touch' or chatbot option. You may have to type 'talk to an agent' a few times to get past the bot.
Nope, Peacock doesn't do prorated refunds. If you cancel, your subscription stays active until the end of your current billing cycle, so you can keep watching until the last day. Your account itself won't be deleted, you'll just lose access to the paid content. There is no option to 'pause' your subscription, you just have to cancel and then sign up again later if you want to come back.
