“Not published” means we did not find a renewal price stated by the vendor on the date we checked. It is not a claim that the price changes on renewal, and it is not a claim that it doesn’t.
The ad-free tier from Peacock: $169.99 a year or $16.99 a month, which is $203.88 over twelve months, so prepaying saves $33.89.
Removing the ads costs $60.00 a year against Peacock Premium. Only Paramount+ matches that step; at Netflix the same move costs $132.00 a year, and inside the three-service bundle it costs $156.00.
Peacock’s own wording is “with no ads (limited exclusions)”, and this desk takes vendors at their word including the parentheses. Live content is generally where those exclusions live.
The monthly price rose from $13.99 in July 2025, in the same change that lifted Peacock Premium by $3. Both figures are quoted by Peacock plus tax.
