How will I get Peacock TV on Cox starting July 15?
Reports say Xfinity and Cox customers will get Peacock TV Premium for free, presumably after the service goes online nationally on July 15. How do I access Peacock? Via a Contour App or what?
Forum Discussion
So before discovering this site, I called COX and after waiting for several minutes I talked to Don is sales. I asked what I needed to do to sign up for Peacock. He told me that I needed to talk to Contour Tech support. He transferred me and I waited for 7 minutes to talk to a rude idiot whose first question (after I explained in detail) was "what is Peacock". He then said he had no idea and I needed to talk to sales. I told him that I had already done than and again, he said he had no idea. At that point I gave up. Great work COX....
@Brujim,
On July 15, 2020, the Peacock app is launching to Cox customers. Peacock is a streaming service from NBCUniversal that offers movies, episodes of your favorite TV series, and exclusive original content. You would need to have contour 2 to get this service just say Peacock in the mic to access.

i just tried this & get into peacock but only option is to start watching premium now....i've got internet ultimate 500 & should get freebie, not the $4.99/month variety.
