If Peacock's latest price hike has left you feeling frustrated or just looking for a new streaming option, cancelling your subscription is relatively straightforward. Here are some step-by-step guides to cancel your Peacock Premium service via web, third-party providers, promotional subscriptions and more.
To start, log in to your Peacock account through the website or mobile app. Then navigate to Profile icon > Account & Plans & Payments > Cancel Plan. Follow the prompts to confirm the cancellation process, and you're done.
However, things can get complicated if you're not directly billed by Peacock. If you're using a third-party provider like Apple, Amazon, Google Play, or Roku, you'll need to cancel your subscription through that service as well. For example, on an iPhone or iPad, tap Settings > Subscriptions and select your Peacock plan to manage and make changes. On the top right of the screen, click your account icon and select Payment & Subscriptions.
If you received a promotional subscription from an internet provider like Comcast or phone carriers, check the fine print to see when it will expire. The best way to cancel these subscriptions is by contacting the entity that offered it in the first place. This may involve calling Xfinity or Spectrum directly.
It's worth noting that Peacock doesn't currently offer the ability to pause a subscription, so cancelling and resubscribing at a later date is the next best option. When you cancel, your service won't be immediately terminated, but rather revert to the free tier after the next payment period. This means it's easy to get back into your Peacock account if you change your mind.
Cancelling also doesn't erase any of your data, so don't worry about that. However, manually closing an account is a bit more involved. To permanently close an account, fill out a request via the Privacy Web Form in the Account page and follow the instructions to complete the process.

! Like seriously, can't they just leave us alone? And honestly, who even knew there were like 5 different ways to cancel your Peacock subscription? It's all just a bit too much for me 
. I mean, I guess it's good that they're transparent about the process, but it's still super annoying to have to deal with it. Can't we just stick to one price and not have to worry about all these extra steps? 
I got my Peacock Premium cancelled by accident too! It's so easy to mess up these things. Anyway, I was thinking, what if there were more options to pause subscriptions instead of just cancelling and resubscribing? That way people wouldn't have to worry about losing access to their favorite shows mid-season 
Just a thought 
I gotta say, Peacock's price hike is pretty steep. I've been a subscriber for a while now, but the new rates are making me think twice about sticking around. 
The thing that's got me frustrated is that they don't offer pause or freeze option for subscriptions... it's either all in or out. That means if I want to try something else later, I'd have to cancel and then sign up again, which can be a bit of a hassle. 
. plus, if you're using a 3rd party provider like apple or amazon, you gotta cancel it there too? what a hassle 
. and don't even get me started on the promotional subs from internet providers... those are always a pain to deal with 
. i guess peacock just needs to figure out its pricing strategy or something... idk 
.
Like, wouldn't that be more convenient for users?
like who doesn't love paying even MORE for streaming services already? And yeah canceling is soooo easy... said no one ever 
. Can we just make it harder for people to unsubscribe or something? Like, let's make them have to solve a puzzle or something before they can leave. It's like the streaming giants want to hold onto our money forever 
so yeah canceling is super easy but i dont think they got this whole pause feature thing down pat 
... anyway what's the point of having paid subscription if we can't pause it when life gets crazy? I'm not saying I'll cancel my Peacock Premium, but like how they don't have an option to pause subscriptions, shouldn't there be a way to extend or take breaks from our favorite shows without losing progress
