Peacock TV is NBC’s streaming service. The Peacock service has thousands of hours of on demand content, includes live national channels, and gives you your local NBC station. Fortunately, for all the content it gives, Peacock TV also happens to be one of the more affordable streaming services. However, before you shell out the first dollar, it only makes sense to check if there is a Peacocktv.com/tv free trial and to search for how to get the best deals on the service. Here, we take a look at all of Peacock TV’s active plans, free trial promotions, and possible bulk discounts.

Does Peacock TV have a free trial?

Unfortunately there is no Peacock TV free trial. Peacock used to have a free tier that gave you access to around 10,000 hours of content absolutely free. You didn’t need a credit card or anything to sign up. The only downside was a bunch of ads. But it provided a way to check out the service for free while you considered whether or not you wanted to buy it. Peacock has removed this tier, so in order to access the service at all you will have to pay at least $6 for the Peacock Premium subscription. While it’s unfortunate that you can’t try out the service with no money down, you might as well wait until you get the urge to watch The Office again, then pay $6 and binge the whole show in a month while you check out what other services Peacock has to offer.

Peacock TV plans

Peacock TV is very cheap. The basic Peacock Premium plan is only $6 per month. Meanwhile, the Peacock Plus plan, which ads local TV and removes ads, is $12 per month. And, while it is not a Peacock TV free trial, you can also opt to pay for 10 months in one lump sum (on either plan) and Peacock will give you the remaining two months of the year for free.

Is Peacock free with Amazon Prime?

Peacock is not free with Amazon Prime. Not only that, but you cannot stream Peacock through Prime like you can with Max, AMC+ and many other streaming services. NBC has decided to keep Peacock completely independent from Amazon. If you have an Amazon TV, you can still download the Peacock app and stream it through there, but you can’t bundle the service under one monthly bill.

What’s the cheapest way to get Peacock TV Premium?

The cheapest way to get Peacock.com/tv Premium is by using a student discount. Right now there are no Peacock deals that cut the price of the service for your average consumer. The Chromecast deal we mentioned above and the $1 promo below have ended. But if you’re a student, you can get Peacock Premium for only $2 per month — as long as you stay a student. Peacock will ask you to verify that you’re still a student once per year. If you stop being a student, the price will raise to whatever Peacock is charging at the time, which is $6 per month right now.

Like with the Apple App Store and Google Play Store, if you signed up for your Peacock account via a third-party service, another website or on a streaming device, you will need to cancel in the same place, not on the Peacock website. 

For example, if you subscribed to Peacocktv.com/tv on Roku, you can cancel your subscription on your Roku streaming device or the Roku website. The steps for Roku’s website are: 

  1. Go to my.roku.com and sign in 
  2. Go to “manage your subscriptions”
  3. Find Peacock in the channels list
  4. Select “unsubscribe” 
Can I Get a Peacock Refund?

If you cancel your Peacock subscription, you will no longer be charged once your current billing cycle ends. Unfortunately, Peacock will not refund you for payments you have already made. According to Peacock’s refund policy, it does not typically offer refunds. If it does, it’s at the service’s discretion. 

Can I Resubscribe to Peacock?

Yes. If you kept the free version of Peacock, you can go to “plans and payment” in your account and upgrade to a paid subscription. If you deleted your Peacock account, you’ll need to set up a new account to resubscribe. 

How to Completely Delete Your Peacock Account

You cannot delete your Peacock account via your account settings. To request deletion, you have to contact Peacock’s parent company, NBC. Follow these steps to contact NBC. 

  1. Go to NBC’s Privacy Policy

    Navigate to NBC’s privacy policy on the NBC website.

  2. Go to “Your Rights”

    Scroll down to “your rights.” There, you will find email addresses for deletion requests inside and outside the U.S.

Peacock has continued its fresh take on the horror genre, as they are fully ready to release their next horror original, “Sick,” whose trailer for the pandemic horror film “Sick” was released on Friday, January 6, 2023, on their YouTube channel. After Peacock’s recent release of Halloween Ends, the pandemic-based horror film “Sick” also promises to be a great watch.

 

What is Pandemic Horror Film ‘Sick’ about?

After their October 2022 release of the horror film “Halloween Ends,” the America-based video streaming service, which is owned by the Television and Streaming division of NBCUniversal ( Peacocktv.com/tv ) , has gone deeper into the world of horror originals with the pandemic horror film “Sick,” starring Gideon Adlon.

As the name of the movie suggests, “Sick” is a horror film themed in the age of social distancing and virus awareness. The film makes itself different from the rest by attaching all strings while taking place in April 2020. Due to the theme of the social distancing era, face masks and quarantines play a really important role in the film set by strongly implanting themselves as a period piece during one of the most life-changing times in recent memory.

Who is in the Star cast of the Pandemic Horror Film ‘Sick’?

The star cast of the pandemic horror film “Sick” includes Gideon Adlon as Parker, Bethlehem Million as Miri, Marc Menchaca as Jason, Dylan Sprayberry as DJ, Jane Adams as Pamela, Charla Bocchicchio as Parker’s mom, Logan Murphy as Benji, and Duane Stephens as Mr. Lyons.

The movie was co-written by Katelyn Crabb and Kevin Williamson, who is best known for being the writer of iconic films like Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer. The film was directed by popular director John Hyams, and it premiered at TIFF and was later screened at Fantastic Fest, in Philadelphia, Chicago, and Oldenburg.

When is the release of the Pandemic Horror Film ‘Sick’?

Peacock’s pandemic-based horror film “Sick” was initially premiered in 2022. Toronto Film Festival and the Fantastic Fest The movie was a huge hit at both festivals, but it is still going to skip theaters and will be released on Peacock’s streaming service. The pandemic horror film will be streaming online starting Friday, January 13, 2023, and all fans of the horror genre are really curious to watch the movie after the exciting trailer.

More about the Trailer

In the opening moments of the trailer, we get a brief glimpse at what’s about to happen: a good sunny day on a lake is upended as night falls, and a figure shrouded in darkness pursues a fleeing trio. A knife flash, a panicked face, and a ramp-up of intense music lead to the movie’s title card.

Following this, we see a pair of women, who are Parker and Miri, both excitedly packing for a springtime trip. As the two reach their destination, a luxurious cabin in the middle of the woods, they enjoy a fun day of winding down. Frozen pizzas and a quick swim start a relaxing time for them away from the troubles of the world. The first night of their trip arrives, and an unexpected visitor makes their first appearance, who appears to be an old friend, DJ. He stops with them to join the duo, questioning their intentions of quarantining alone. The trio makes the most of their time by partying, as DJ goes outside to grab something from his car. In leaving the cabin door open, however, a stiff, shadowy figure wanders inside.

Looking at Sick’s trailer, the movie looks to be a slasher that takes advantage of its unique setting in multiple ways. If the film retains even half of the effort put into its trailer, we can expect a really solid start to Peacock’s video streaming service by mid-January.

What people are saying on Twitter?

As soon as the video streaming service Peacock.com/tv released the trailer of the pandemic horror film “Sick,” netizens have been excited about the release of the film and are talking about it across different social media platforms. 

Following the trailer release of Peacock’s pandemic horror film “Sick,” podcaster Josh At The Movies shared a tweet on his official Twitter handle, @PoisonKeyblade. It reads, “Horror in 2023 is already off to a great start. “Sick” is a fantastic modern slasher that holds up a mirror to the carelessness of youth. As many other people have already said, it’s like a long chase scene in the best way possible. Another great horror gem from Kevin Williamson!”

The good news is that Peacock’s support reps are speaking the truth. You can, in fact, watch Peacock on Fire TV devices through a process called sideloading, which involves installing the Android TV version of the app from outside Amazon’s app store. (This is possible because Amazon’s Fire TV devices also run a version of the Android operating system.)

This process is also easier now than it used to be thanks to the work of Elias Saba over at AFTVNews. Here’s how you can set it up:

1. Install Saba’s free Downloader app on your Fire TV. The easiest way is to use the Alexa button on your remote to say “Downloader.”

2. Before you launch the Downloader app, head to Settings > My Fire TV > Developer Options > Install Unknown Apps, then toggle Downloader to “ON.”

3. Launch the app, then enter the number 81035 into the URL field at the top. (If you didn’t follow step two above, you’ll be prompted to let Downloader install unknown apps first. Follow the prompt to visit Settings, set the toggle to “ON” for Downloader, then go back to the Downloader app and repeat this step.)

4. Be patient and wait until you see a prompt asking if you want to install Peacock. Select “Install,” then select “Open” to run the app. You might need to restart your Fire TV for video to play properly.

At this point, you should be able to use Peacocktv.com/tv like normal, with one notable caveat: In the current version, Peacock does not seem to display a home-screen icon, so you’ll only see a gray box with a slashed-out image icon instead. The app itself works fine, though, so just remember that this gray box represents the Peacock app, and consider pinning it to your home screen for faster access.

What if Peacock needs an update?

Having written this kind of tutorial before, I know that when Peacock updates its Android TV app, it can sometimes prevent your older sideloaded version from running. I’ll try to keep this story up to date, but you can also update the app yourself through the following steps:

1. Head to the Peacock.com/tv page on APK Mirror, scroll down to “All versions,” and click the option that shows the most recent date.

2. On the next page, right-click (or long-press) the “Download APK” button and copy the link.

3. Head to the AFTVNews URL Shortener, paste your link into the URL box, and hit “Shorten.”

4. In Downloader, use the newly generated numeric code in place of the one seen in the steps above.
