WWE Network And Peacock Provide New Info On Merger, Prorated Credit To Be Issued To Users

WWE Network content will officially be available on Peacock on Thursday, March 18. Beginning Monday, April 5, the WWE Network standalone app will no longer work in the United States with Peacock being the exclusive home to WWE content. 

Ahead of the merger, WWE and Peacock have provided new details on the merger and how it affects current WWE Network subscribers. 

Here is what the current WWE Network Q&A says about current accounts and what happens when WWE Network shuts down. 

Once I lose access to WWE Network, will I get a credit for the remaining balance on my account?

Yes. We will credit the portion of your subscription that cannot be used after the WWE network standalone app sunsets in the United States.

* For Gift Card subscribers, this will come in the form of an exchange program where you’ll be able to choose from among 300+ gift cards.
* For Credit Card, Debit Card or PayPal subscribers, credit will be applied to the same payment method that was billed.
* For Apple or Roku subscribers, credit will applied back to your Apple or Roku account.

What about these other WWE Network gift cards I’ve purchased? What can I do with these?

WWE Network is now on Peacock. As a result you are no longer able to redeem your WWE Network Gift Card for a subscription.

Don’t worry, WWE Network has partnered with InComm Incentives to issue you a credit which can be redeemed for gift cards from hundreds of top-name brands — including retailers and restaurants — or a general-use card from American Express or Visa.

This program will be available shortly. Please check back over the next few days for additional details.

Why was my account cancelled?

WWE Network is moving to Peacock in the U.S, so we’ve begun preparations to make that happen.

* U.S. Subscribers who purchased through Apple will begin to cancel on March 18th. Any time left on those subscriptions will be credited back to Apple appropriately.
* U.S. Subscribers through other payment methods, like Roku, Google or direct with Credit Card, Debit Card, Gift Card or PayPal, will not renew on the next billing cycle date.

Why does my account show a Subscription End Date?

We’ve disabled automatic billing for subscribers in the U.S. Your account will remain active only through your next billing date. If your next billing date is after April 4th your subscription will be cancelled on April 4th and you will receive a credit for the remaining time on your subscription. To continue enjoying WWE Network content, sign up for Peacock.

WWE sent out an email to subscribers on Wednesday with the following information:

WWE Network is moving, and beginning April 5, it will be exclusively available on Peacock in the U.S. As a result, your current WWE Network subscription will expire at the end of this billing cycle and will not renew. 

To continue watching WWE Network after your subscription expires, you’ll need to sign up for Peacock. With Peacock Premium, you’ll be able to stream every live WWE pay-per-view event – including WrestleMania on April 10 & 11 – along with your favorite WWE shows. Plus, you’ll get access to tons of hit movies and series, exclusive Peacock Originals, live sports, and so much more – all on Peacock! 

We’ll send you another email with more details in the coming days. In the meantime, you can access WWE Network as you always have until your current subscription ends. 

Sincerely,
WWE Network Support
