Peacocktv Reviews 

They obviously focus on their abundance of commercial sponsor support through a progressive 30, 60, 90, 120 and 60 second commercial line up for a typical 1 hour show which resets if you accidentally restart the program. Can't say I love the the 120 since it's split into 2 60sec with a 2min show burp in between. Really highlights their service for sponsors. 🙄

Hate this streaming with a passion. Have the service free through Comcast and Walmart but never able to login into it use on my tv... years of trying! Go elsewhere for entertainment. Peacock is only frustration!

The service failed daily. Plus, long waits for the stream to reactivate. On Sunday, the last day I never did get to watch the Men’s hockey final. Then after the closing ceremony all the replays disappeared. Terrible streaming, the worst Olympic watching experience I have ever had to pay for. Peacock sucks!

Signed up for Peacocktv for the Olympics. The Peacocktv interface was clunky. NBC used so many of its own routine sports announcers who had no knowledge of the sport, rather than event experts and previous Olympians (XC sking, speed skating to name just two) who might be able to help the audience understand what the competition. Every change of place on a reply triggered yet another 120s add. Frustrating, it all you want to do is zoom to a particular part of the reply. Overall pathetic and not worth the cost. While the NBC and USA network coverage shared some of these faults, I would have been better off to just record those and play them back myself.

Peacock is terrible! They just pulled all the Figure Skating replays, and now I can’t even watch the closing ceremony! Cancelling tomorrow!

Horrible. Their streaming is often not HD. Washed out video. Pure trash. I have cancelled!!!!

Ads on my PAID subscription. They literally spoiled the result of every single hockey game before I could watch it. Worst UI I've ever seen on a streaming site.

Terrible coverage of the Olympics. Removing coverage shortly after the event, so those of us that can’t watch live, don’t even have a chance to see what we missed. Quotes live events but it’s over already when you try to click it.
Slow response time even in selecting events and shows.
Will not be renewing this app after the Olympics! Absolute failure for a streaming platform

Horrible live streaming. Constant cutting in an out. Unwatchable

I subscribed to Peacock to watch the Olympics and it ruined my '26 Olympic viewing experience. Constant buffering, interrupted events, poor coverage, glitching and lagging during the seemingly endless commercials played and this ridiculous screen that just said "your event is over" or "your event will return soon." One of many examples of just weird broadcasting decisions; I was watching a rerun of men's bobsledding which was playing on a screen labeled "coverage" and the show was interrupted for a commercial followed by the "your event is over" screen. Well the event wasn't over because half the teams hadn't gone yet. I looked at the time and saw it was 7pm CST (Primetime), so that was alright because Primetime coverage was starting. Poor timing, but I could understand interrupting a rerun for primetime. When it came on however the event was a rerun of women's curling. I watched women's curling for the first hour of "Primetime" coverage, thinking it didn't seem very primetime because there were no interviews or broadcasters talking, but by this time (Saturday before closing ceremonies) the whole viewing experience had been so weird I didn't put much more thought into it. At 8pm I went back to the home screen to find that I in fact was not watching Primetime. There are many more examples of confusing, random, coverage decisions and I won't even get into the glitching, lagging and buffering. Fingers crossed I can watch the closing ceremonies on Sunday and will immediately cancel my subscription and find something else for '28.

Stop the buffering on the Olympics!!
I have to watch replays on UTube! Last night it buffered so long, Peacock timed out, I had to click back into Peacock. Frustrating!

The Olympics were a joke. So many pauses and synch issues! Unwatchable at times.

Pay a subscription and still have commercials forced to watch! So many commercials they ruin the shows and Olympic coverage.

What is it with the words? It's not CC or the hearing anything. On any new broadcast that isn't live there are these annoying words on my screen. Why? I didn't ask for it, don't want it, and you can't turn it off. I bet it's some AI CRAP. GET IT OFF MY SCREEN.

I know this isn't CC because I've turned it off. Plus, its on for like fifteen minutes. Annoying. I know it's not my TV because it only happens on Peacock broadcasts. This has to be some AI crap. At least allow me to turn it off.

I upgraded to avoid being deluged with ads. Ads every 11 minutes. There are just too many good platforms to stay with Peacock and tolerate this crap. I've read the other reviews and I see that I'm not alone. I've canceled them but will be watching for additional charges for nonexistent services as this seems to be an issue as well.

Camera quality is lacking, especiallybthe court view! Close-ups are okay but long views are not high quality. John Fanta does not have the voice of an announcer, and we often watch games the next day and they screw us out of the early minutes! We are disappointed in their sports coverage overall.

We have a subscription but won’t let me watch the Olympics. Huge advertisement for the Olympics on peacock and can’t watch. Waste of money and time ignore this app

Sadly, there is no way to provide a Zero, which would be an accurate score. EXAMPLE: when watching Olympics Tues 17 FEB 2026, the Lady's Figure Skating was advertised by Peacocktv to run at 7PM CT. instead, they showed 17 minutes of Lady's Short Program, OVER one hour of curling. when you leave, you get a bunch of ads to log back on. TOTAL SCAM

Piece of Crap - waste of time! That should be so embarrassing to them what they did promising the olympics - we can never watch anything. Its so delayed. Its nothing! DO NOT PURCHASE PEACOCK - WASTE OF TIME, AND WASTE OF MONEY ALL COMMERCIALS. I WILL NEVER EVER USE AGAIN

Many of the shows I watched and enjoyed on peacock for example poker face now required me to upgrade to watch. With the subscription I've had for two years. I have had issues with closed captioning my husband is extremely hard of hearing. Technical support Pennsylvania many things to try none which have worked It is something they are working on their end for 2 years. But still we cut the streaming service because there were many shows I enjoyed. We will not be renewing
