How to Share a Peacock Account

Sharing your Peacock streaming with loved ones is a great way to cut costs on a Peacock Premium subscription or avoid the headache of setting up your own account.

Here you’ll learn everything you need to know to start doing some simultaneous streaming. Like Disney Plus and HBO Max, we also provide guides for these services. You might also learn how to cancel your NBC Peacock Premium subscription and discover the top series and movies available right now.

Distributing Peacock Passwords

The lack of individual profiles on Peacock makes it a place where information can be freely shared amongst all users. Every member of your account will be able to see your old watch lists and favourites, so you’ll just have to learn to live with it.

To begin using Peacock, you must first register for an account. Peacock Premium costs $4.99 per month for ad-supported material and $9.99 per month for ad-free content, and both options are available for signup on the website along with Peacock Free.

Then, just add the people you wish to have access by sharing the account’s credentials with them. A word of warning: don’t use the same password for multiple sites, especially if any of them are important or personal, like online banking.

Furthermore, there is a restriction on the total number of concurrent streams. Both the free and paid versions of Peacock have a limit of three streams at once. However, there is no restriction to the number of devices that may be added to an account, so if more than three individuals are going to be using the same account, they will just need to work out a plan. Streaming is limited to a maximum of three users per account at any given time. You have been warned.

The Optimal Method for Managing Account Split Payments

NBC Peacock only allows you to register one payment method, so if you wish to split the cost of a Premium account, you’ll need to come up with another solution. You can use PayPal as an alternative to charging your subscription to a credit card by having your payees send their half of the fee to your PayPal account.

Alternatively, you could consider exploring alternative methods of sharing expenses. One option is to have everyone set up a monthly standing order; another is to utilize a splitting app like Monzo for a large group.

Remove Your Peacock Account Here!

The real goal is to get you to fill up the form requesting that NBCUniversal, the parent company of Peacock, collect all of your data. Name, surname, email, and state are required fields (the form is US-only). Make sure to specify “Peacock” as the relevant brand and choose “Delete Information” as the request reason.

If you are not a US resident, please send an email to privacy@nbcuni.com instead of filling out the form. Even if it isn’t clear what you should send to this address, you should at least be able to get in touch with a real person who can assist you.

Even if you live in a state like California where such deletions are mandated by law, there is no assurance that Peacock will comply with your request, and it may take some time before you receive confirmation. Peacock Premium subscriptions should be terminated in the meanwhile.

For What Reason Can’t I Just Close My Peacock Account Myself?

That’s a fair question to ask, especially considering that lots of other businesses really encourage it, and those services are the ones actually keeping your data.

Peacock sees two main causes for this. The first is that, provided you remember your login information or can reset your password, you can return to the service at any time, as basic access is always free.

Since your saved shows and preferences haven’t been lost, you’re more likely to start streaming again and make a profit. Ad revenue is what keeps Peacock afloat, regardless of whether or not you ever pay for a Premium subscription.
