Cancel Peacock directly through your account settings

You can cancel your Peacock subscription by logging into your account on Peacock's website or mobile app and navigating to your account settings. The cancellation option is usually found under "Account" or "Subscription" — the exact location depends on whether you're using the web version or the app, but both routes lead to the same result. Once you find the cancellation button, Peacock will ask you to confirm, and your subscription ends at the end of your current billing cycle.

Your access continues until that final billing date. Peacock does not refund the current month or billing period, even if you cancel partway through. If you signed up for an annual plan, you lose access to the remaining months when you cancel — Peacock does not prorate refunds for early cancellation of yearly subscriptions.

Key Takeaways

  • Log into your Peacock account on the website or app, go to Account or Subscription settings, and select the cancellation option.
  • Your access continues until the end of your current billing cycle, and Peacock does not refund the current period.
  • If you have an annual plan, cancellation ends your access when ready without a refund for unused months.
  • If you signed up through a third-party platform like Apple, Google Play, or Amazon, you may need to cancel through that platform instead of Peacock directly.

Cancelling through the Peacock website

Open a web browser and go to peacocktv.com, then sign in with your email and password. Once you're logged in, look for your account menu — this is usually a profile icon or your name in the upper right corner of the page. Click it and select "Account" or "Settings."

From there, find the section labeled "Subscription" or "Billing." You should see your current plan displayed along with your next billing date. Below that, there will be a button or link to cancel or manage your subscription. Click it, confirm that you want to cancel, and your subscription will be set to end on your next billing date.

Cancelling through the Peacock mobile app

Open the Peacock app on your phone or tablet and tap the profile icon, usually located in the bottom right corner of the screen. Select "Account" from the menu that appears.

Scroll down to find "Subscription" or "Manage Subscription." Tap it to see your current plan and billing information. You should see a "Cancel Subscription" or similar button. Tap it and confirm your cancellation. Like the website, your access will continue through the end of your current billing period.

Cancelling if you subscribed through a third-party platform

If you signed up for Peacock through Apple's App Store, Google Play, Amazon Prime Video Channels, or another third-party service, you may not be able to cancel directly through Peacock. Instead, you'll need to cancel through the platform where you originally subscribed.

For Apple, open Settings on your iPhone or iPad, tap your name, select "Subscriptions," find Peacock, and tap "Cancel Subscription." For Google Play, open the Play Store app, tap your profile icon, go to "Manage subscriptions," select Peacock, and tap "Cancel subscription." For Amazon Prime Video Channels, go to your Prime Video account settings, find "Manage Your Prime Video Channels," locate Peacock, and select "Cancel Channel." Each platform processes cancellations slightly differently, but all will end your subscription at the end of your current billing cycle.

What happens after you cancel

Once you cancel, you retain access to Peacock's content until your billing cycle ends. After that date, you will no longer be able to stream anything on the platform. Any saved shows, watchlists, or viewing history will remain associated with your account if you decide to resubscribe later, though Peacock does not may provide how long it stores this information.

If you cancel an annual plan partway through the year, your access ends when ready — you do not get a refund or the option to switch to a monthly plan for the remaining time. This is one reason to check your plan type before cancelling, especially if you signed up for a year-long subscription.

Reactivating your subscription later

If you change your mind after cancelling, you can resubscribe to Peacock at any time by logging back into your account or creating a new one. Peacock does not charge a reactivation fee. You'll straightforward select a plan and pay the current subscription rate. If you had a monthly plan before, you can return to the same plan type; if you had an annual plan, you can choose either monthly or annual when you come back.

Your account history and preferences may still be there if you resubscribe within a reasonable timeframe, though Peacock does not publicly state how long it preserves cancelled accounts. If you're away for a long time, you may need to set up your watchlist and preferences again.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will I get a refund if I cancel Peacock?

No. Peacock does not refund the current billing period, whether you cancel on day one or the last day of your cycle. Your access continues until the end of that period, but no money is returned. Annual plans are not refundable if cancelled early.

Can I pause my Peacock subscription instead of cancelling?

Peacock does not offer a pause or freeze option. Your only choices are to keep paying or to cancel. If you want to stop paying temporarily, you must cancel and resubscribe later.

What if I subscribed through my cable or phone provider?

If Peacock came as part of a bundle with your cable, internet, or phone service, you'll need to contact your provider directly to remove it. Call the customer service number on your bill or log into your provider's account portal to manage add-ons.

How long does it take for Peacock to process my cancellation?

Cancellation is when ready once you confirm it. Your access ends on your next billing date, not days or weeks later. You should receive a confirmation email shortly after you cancel.

Can I cancel Peacock by phone or email?

Peacock does not offer phone or email cancellation. You must cancel through your account settings on the website or app, or through the third-party platform if you subscribed there. This is the only method Peacock supports.
