Many Peacock users signed up through TV providers or have it bundled with their cable package. If you don't see a cancel option in your Peacock account, you'll need to cancel through your original provider instead.

Peacock-specific things to know

Peacock subscriptions can work differently depending on your plan or how you signed up. These tips cover common edge cases.

Free tier users don't need to cancel
If you're only using Peacock's free tier with ads, there's nothing to cancel. You can just stop using the service.
Premium Plus has different cancellation flow
Premium Plus subscribers may see additional retention offers or survey questions during the cancellation process.
Live TV add-ons cancel separately
If you have Peacock Premium Plus with live TV channels, these may need to be cancelled separately from your main subscription.

Before you cancel, keep this in mind

These details can affect your cancellation timing or whether it goes through properly.

1. Check who's actually billing you

Look at your credit card or bank statement. If it shows your cable company, phone carrier, or app store instead of Peacock, you'll need to cancel through them.

2. You keep access until billing period ends

After cancelling, you can still watch Peacock Premium content until your paid period expires. You'll then drop back to the free tier automatically.

3. Deleting the app doesn't cancel billing

Removing Peacock from your phone or TV doesn't stop subscription charges. You must cancel through your account settings or billing provider.

Other options

If cost is the issue, you might be able to downgrade to a cheaper plan instead of cancelling completely.

Downgrade your Peacock plan

Peacock offers multiple pricing tiers. You might find a cheaper option that still meets your needs.

  • Peacock (Free) - Limited content with ads

  • Peacock Premium - More content with ads

  • Peacock Premium Plus - All content, ad-free

Switch Your Billing Cycle

Peacock offers both monthly and annual billing options with potential savings on yearly plans.

Annual plans typically save 15-20% compared to monthly billing

Check for Bundles

Peacock is often included with cable TV packages or bundled with other NBCUniversal services.

  • Xfinity cable packages

  • Cox cable bundles

  • Some Hulu + Live TV packages

Cancel Peacock through a third party

If you can't cancel through your Peacock account, you may need to go through app stores or TV providers. The right option depends on how you're being billed.

Apple App Store

If you subscribed to Peacock through the App Store on iPhone or iPad, you'll need to cancel through Apple.
