Peacock streaming service will be free for 90 days on several Google platforms, including for all Android and Android TV users, when its debuts on July 15.
Chromecast users will also have free access to Peacock Premium, the service's $5 per month ad-supported tier, for three months. (Peacock Premium will also have a $10 per month ad-free streaming option.)
As part of a prelaunch deal struck with Google, those who sign up for Peacock using an Android device will be able to get three months of Peacock Premium service for free. Normally $5 per month, Peacock Premium will offer more than 20,000 hours of content, or nearly double the amount that is available for the free, ad-supported tier.
An ad-free version of Peacock Premium is available for $10 per month.
The Google deal is a significant extension of the regular seven-day free trial that NBCUniversal is offering those who sign up for Peacock through Apple devices, Microsoft's Xbox or in web browsers. Under the deal, Peacock Premium will be available until Oct. 15, at which point users will be charged the regular $5 per month rate.
After making an account on Android, you'll be able to log in and watch on other devices like iPhones, Xboxes or smart TVs from LG and Vizio. The only difference now is that you'll be able to access the Premium content for free until mid-October.
One place you might not be able to watch Peacock: Amazon Fire TV or Roku. Like AT&T's HBO Max, as of writing Peacock has yet to reach a deal with the two most popular streaming platforms.

They have zero way to get a live person or email adr or submit a question or problem. Their chat is strictly an automated bot. Had to go to the NBC site to contact them. And even then you're not guaranteed a response. Pretty poor customer service on a newly launched service.
