Cancel Peacock on Roku from the Channel Store

To cancel Peacock on Roku, go to the Roku home screen, select Channels, find Peacock in your list, and press the Options button (the star icon on your remote). Choose Remove channel. This removes the app from your device but does not cancel your subscription — you must also cancel the subscription itself through your Roku account or Peacock's website.

Removing the channel is the first step, but it only stops the app from appearing on your Roku. Your payment method will still be charged on your next billing date unless you cancel the subscription separately. Many people remove the channel and think they are done, then find a charge on their card weeks later.

After you remove the channel, your Roku device no longer shows Peacock on your home screen or in your channel list. However, the subscription remains active in your account. If you reinstall the channel later without canceling first, you will be charged again on your next billing date.

Cancel the Peacock Subscription Through Your Roku Account

Open the Roku app or visit roku.com, sign in with your Roku account, and go to Subscriptions. Find Peacock in the list and select it. Choose Cancel subscription or Manage subscription, then confirm the cancellation. Your access ends on the last day of your current billing cycle.

This method cancels the subscription you purchased directly through Roku. If you signed up for Peacock through Roku's channel store and paid through your Roku account, this is the route that stops the charges. The cancellation takes effect when ready in your account, though you keep access until your paid period ends.

When you cancel through Roku, you will see a confirmation message on the screen. Write down the date shown or take a screenshot — this is your proof of cancellation. Roku will also send a confirmation email to the address linked to your Roku account.

Cancel Peacock Directly on Peacock's Website

If you signed up for Peacock outside of Roku — for example, by creating a Peacock account on your computer or phone — you must cancel through Peacock's website, not through Roku. Go to peacocktv.com, sign in, select your profile icon, choose Account, then Manage Subscription. Select Cancel Subscription and follow the prompts.

This matters because Peacock and Roku keep separate records. A Peacock account created directly with Peacock is billed by Peacock, not by Roku. Canceling it in Roku's system will not work. Check your credit card statement or email receipts to see whether Peacock or Roku is charging you each month — that tells you where to cancel.

Peacock will ask you why you are canceling and may offer you a discount to stay. You can decline and proceed with the cancellation. Like Roku, Peacock will send a confirmation email and show you the date your access ends.

Key Takeaways

  • Removing the Peacock channel from your Roku device does not cancel your subscription and does not stop charges.
  • If you subscribed through Roku's channel store, cancel the subscription in your Roku account under Subscriptions, not by removing the channel.
  • If you created a Peacock account directly on Peacock's website, you must cancel through peacocktv.com, not through Roku.
  • Check your credit card statement to see whether Peacock or Roku is billing you, so you cancel in the right place.
  • Your access continues until the end of your current billing period, even after you cancel.

What Happens After You Cancel

Once you cancel, you lose access to Peacock content on the last day of your billing cycle. If you cancel mid-month, you keep access until that date arrives. You can sign back in and reactivate your subscription at any time — canceling does not delete your account or your watch history.

If you want to keep the Peacock app on your Roku for later but do not want to be charged, you must cancel the subscription. straightforward removing the channel leaves the subscription active. You can reinstall the channel whenever you want and sign back in with your account.

After your access ends, the Peacock app will prompt you to sign in or start a new subscription if you try to open it. You will not be able to watch content, but your account information remains stored on Peacock's servers.

Troubleshooting: You Cannot Find Peacock in Your Subscriptions

If Peacock does not appear in your Roku subscriptions list, you likely subscribed through Peacock directly, not through Roku. Check your email for receipts from Peacock or Roku to confirm who is billing you. If Peacock is sending the receipts, go to peacocktv.com to cancel. If Roku is sending them, try removing and reinstalling the Peacock channel on your Roku, then check subscriptions again.

Another reason Peacock might not show up is if your subscription already ended. If you canceled months ago and forgot, the subscription is no longer active. You can check your Roku account history or credit card statement to see the last charge date.

If you still cannot locate the subscription after checking both places, contact Roku support or Peacock support with your account email and the last charge date. They can tell you which system is billing you and help you cancel from the correct location.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I lose my watch history if I cancel Peacock?

No. Your Peacock account and watch history remain saved. If you reactivate your subscription later, everything is still there. Canceling the subscription does not delete your account.

Can I cancel Peacock on Roku if I have a free trial?

Yes. Even if you are on a free trial, you should cancel before the trial ends to avoid being charged. The cancellation process is the same — go to your Roku subscriptions and select Cancel.

What if I cancel but still see a charge on my card?

Check the charge date. If it is before you canceled, it is a charge you already owed. If it is after, contact Peacock or Roku support with your cancellation confirmation and the charge date. Keep a screenshot of your canceled subscription for proof.

Can I pause my Peacock subscription instead of canceling it?

Peacock does not offer a pause feature. You must either keep the subscription active or cancel it. If you want to return later, canceling and reactivating is the only option.

How long does it take for Peacock to stop charging me after I cancel?

Charges stop after your current billing period ends. If you cancel on the 15th and your billing date is the 20th, you will be charged one more time on the 20th. After that date, no more charges appear on your card.
