How to Cancel Your Peacock Subscription

If you’re looking to step away from Peacock and the reruns of The Office, here’s a straightforward guide for cancelling your subscription.

Quick Overview

Peacock recently raised its subscription prices again, marking the third increase in three years. If you’re feeling the pinch in your wallet or want to consolidate your streaming options, here’s how to cancel your Peacock Premium or Premium Plus subscription effectively.

Canceling Your Subscription via the Web

If your subscription is directly billed by Peacock, follow these simple steps:

1. Log in to your Peacock Premium or Premium Plus account.
2. Click on the Profile icon.
3. Select either Account or Plans & Payments.
4. Click on Cancel Plan.
5. Follow the prompts to confirm your cancellation.

That’s it! You’ve canceled your subscription with minimal hassle.

Canceling via Third-Party Providers

If you signed up through a third-party service like Apple, Amazon, or Google Play, you’ll need to follow their cancellation processes:

Cancel via Apple

1. Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad.
2. Tap on your name at the top of the screen, then tap Subscriptions.
3. Select your Peacock subscription and make necessary changes.

Cancel via Amazon

1. Go to Amazon Memberships and Subscriptions in your web browser.
2. Log into your Amazon account.
3. Find your Peacock subscription and select Cancel Subscription.

Cancel via Google Play

1. Navigate to the Google Play store in your web browser.
2. Ensure you’re signed into your Google account.
3. Click your account icon in the top right, then select Payment & Subscriptions.
4. Click on the Subscriptions tab and select your Peacock subscription.
5. Click Manage and select Cancel subscription.

Cancel via Roku

1. On your Roku TV, highlight Peacock.
2. Press the star (*) button.
3. Select Manage Subscriptions.
4. Find Peacock and hit Cancel.

Dealing with Promotional Subscriptions

If you received a promotional subscription through your internet provider (like Comcast), you will need to cancel by contacting them directly. Check the terms of your promotional plan to know when it converts to a charged subscription.

Can I Pause My Subscription?

Unfortunately, Peacock does not currently offer a “pause” option for subscriptions. The best approach is to cancel now and resubscribe later if you decide to return.

What Happens After You Cancel?

When you cancel your Peacock subscription, you maintain access until your next billing date; no partial refunds are issued. At that point, your service will revert to free tier access. If you want to resume service before the next billing cycle, simply look for the “Restart Subscription” button on your Account page.

Keep in mind that cancelling doesn’t erase your data — your account remains and will revert to the free tier. To fully delete your account, fill out the request via the Privacy Web Form on the Account page.

In summary, cancelling your Peacock subscription is straightforward, and whether you’re doing it through the site or another provider, following the steps above can help you manage your subscriptions efficiently.
