How to cancel Peacock
TL;DR
- Difficulty: 3/5
- Time estimate: 3 minutes
Step-by-step
On the web (fastest):
- Log in at peacocktv.com.
- Select your profile icon (top right) → Account or Plans & Payments.
- Select Cancel Plan.
- Follow the prompts to confirm.
App differences: Peacock's mobile apps generally route subscription changes to the web or to your app store billing. If you subscribed through Apple or Google, cancel in that app store.
Billing-specific instructions:
- Billed through Apple: iPhone/iPad → Settings → your name → Subscriptions → Peacock → Cancel Subscription.
- Billed through Google Play: Play Store → profile icon → Payments & subscriptions → Subscriptions → Peacock → Cancel subscription.
- Billed through Amazon (Prime Video Channels): Cancel in your Amazon account under Memberships & Subscriptions.
- Billed through Roku: Roku home → highlight Peacock → press * → Manage subscription → Cancel subscription.
Traps to expect
- The "Change Plan" detour: Peacock steers cancelers toward downgrading instead. That's a legitimate option, but don't click through it on autopilot if you meant to cancel.
- The discount gauntlet: Expect at least one screen offering you a deal to stay before the final confirm. Decide your answer before you start.
- Annual plans: Canceling stops renewal; the remaining months are not refunded. Time your cancellation for shortly before renewal if you want maximum value, or just cancel and move on.
Retention offers
- Six months at $2.99/month: Reported by deal watchers as a recurring Peacock save offer. Verdict: genuinely cheap if you'll watch. The catch is the six-month commitment window; if your plan was a two-month rotation, you're now paying for four months you didn't want.
- 50% off for three months: Another reported variant. Same verdict: good only if the viewing justifies it.
After you cancel
- You keep streaming until the end of the current billing period.
- Your profiles and watch history are expected to persist on the account, but Peacock doesn't publish a retention window.
