Peacock price (October 2026) and how to cancel Peacock
Peacock costs $12.99/month for Premium (with ads) and $19.99/month for Premium Plus (mostly ad-free) in the US, after an increase announced August 18, 2026.
To cancel, sign in at peacocktv.com, open Account > Plans & Payment > Change or cancel plan > Cancel plan. If you pay through Apple, Google, Roku or Amazon, cancel there.
Existing subscribers started paying the higher price from their first billing date on or after September 17, 2026. Peacock is popular around big live events (NBA, Sunday Night Football, the Olympics), which makes it a classic subscribe-for-a-month service.

Refunds
Peacock bills in advance and doesn't refund the unused part of a month. You keep access until the end of your billing period. Annual plans are also generally non-refundable after purchase, apart from where local law requires otherwise.
Time your cancellation around live events
Because you keep access until your period ends, the smart pattern is: subscribe right before the event or season you want, cancel the same day, and you'll still have the full month. Set a calendar reminder for the end date if you want to re-subscribe for the next event.
Alternatives
- Paramount+ Essential ($8.99) for CBS shows and NFL on CBS.
- NBC.com and the NBC app show some recent episodes free with ads.
- Many Xfinity and Instacart+ plans have included Peacock as a perk - check before paying separately.
