How to access NEW Peacock Apple TV subscription

I am an Apple One Premier subscriber. Today, October 20, 2025, there is a new bundle to get Peacock Premium Plus for $11 via Apple. I signed up. But it is NOT possible to use this service. I am paying for nothing. I happened to already have a Peacock account using the SAME email as my Apple account. So creating a new account via Peacock is not an option. It will just recognize my other Peacock account that has no communication at all via Apple. So how do I access what I am paying for? Apple and Peacock support both have no options for me. They both basically told me, "Oh well."

I ran into this same problem- I already had a peacock account with an expired subscription, and could not get the new subscription linked. I downloaded the peacock app on my phone and logged into my account. Then, in the App Store, go to subscriptions, click on your bundled benefit, then click open for the peacock app. It then linked the bundle benefit to my peacock account and I was able to login on my tv.

Why is it not possible?

What happens when you try exactly?


If you added Peacock+ through Apple One, the service should be available through the Peacock channel in the Apple TV App.


If you added through the Peacock App, then you get Apple TV+ shows in the Peacock App.


Do note, Peacock+ and the Peacock channel in Apple TV app are only available in the US.

How does this help if the deal is only available through the Apple TV app, which detects if you have Apple One Premier to get the $11 Peacock Premium Plus bundle? Your suggestion is to pay $20 through Peacock by signing up for a new account? The issue is that Peacock does not have an option to login with an Apple Account, which I'd assume would allow it to check if the subscription is already active through the Apple Account. I'm having the same issue as OP.

I am having this same exact issue!!! No emails exist from Apple to "Set up your new bundle services"; Apple Support is useless and refers me to Peacock since it is their app. I contact Peacock, and they are referring me to Apple since the subscription is billed through Apple. This passing-the-buck game each of them is playing is extremely annoying and seems as though this new "partnership" between Apple and Peacock was not fully thought out. Going on a week now of this and still cannot access anything on Peacock.


In case Apple is paying attention to any of these complaints, my Apple Support Case ID is 10272*****8
