In July, streaming service Peacock raised its prices for new subscribers. While those changes didn’t impact existing subscribers, Peacock has confirmed that the price increase would apply to all subscribers as of Aug. 22.
That means new pricing will go into effect on your next billing date, or, if you’re on an offer, at the end of the promotional period.
So, as Aug. 22 approaches and new prices loom, let’s examine how much Peacock will cost in the future.
