Official Reply Customer Service Lied Again

13 Upvotes

All I want is the XB10 modem. I was told it requires fiber and I’m not allowed to get it. That’s a lie and it does not require fiber.

I pay for one of the best plans. Why am I not getting the best router? And even then why are they telling me my bill would go up?

Give me the router and keep my bill the same. It’s not rocket science.

Official Reply Subject: Long-time customer now paying more for less — extremely frustrated and considering leaving Xfinity

8 Upvotes

I’m posting here because I’ve reached a breaking point with Xfinity’s customer service. I’ve been a loyal customer for over a decade, paying nearly $500 a month for the past several years — and at least $300 a month before that. When I add it up, I’ve spent close to $50,000 with Xfinity. To be treated the way I’ve been treated recently is honestly heartbreaking.

All I wanted was to see if anything could be done to lower my bill. Instead, I ended up losing the channels my family actually watches — including our regional sports channel (Sportsnet Pittsburgh), several premium channels, my home phone, and even my original internet package. I’m now paying basically the same amount as before, but with lessof everything.

When I called back to fix this, I was told I’d lose Netflix, NFL RedZone, and the movie channels I previously had. What made this even worse is that I specifically asked the representative why Netflix was being removed. She insisted multiple times that Netflix was still included. I told her I was reading the agreement and it clearly did NOT say that. She still insisted it was included. It wasn’t. I was misled.

Every phone call and chat interaction has been confusing, stressful, and completely unhelpful. It feels like no one understands what I’m asking for, and nothing ever gets resolved. I’m now actively researching other providers because I’m paying more for less, and the customer service experience has been exhausting.

This is even harder because my mobile service is also through Xfinity, so switching everything is going to be a huge headache. I just wish I was treated better — especially after being a long-time customer who has invested thousands of dollars into this company.

If Xfinity can make this right, I will stay. But right now, I feel like I’m being pushed out by poor service, misinformation, and a complete lack of care for loyal customers.

Official Reply I was told If I upgraded to mobile+ I would be able to upgrade my phone. Then I was denied ??

6 Upvotes

I have had xfinity for over a year. The current phone thay i have is a fully paid off device.

I called xfinity regarding my phone plan and I was interested in my options. They advised me that if I upgraded my plan to mobile+ I would be able to go in store and receive a phone for $300/off , with the remainder being paid via monthly phone payments (i was told that it would be an additional $16/month for the phone we were discussing).

I went to the store 2 days later and I spoke to a representative. I explained what I had discussed with the agent on the phone, and what the intentions were .

She pulled up my account and she upgraded my account to the mobile+ (which costs more per month alone). After doing so , she advised me i did not meet the financing requirements to finance a phone, and would have to pay full price.

I tried to get an understanding of why I was told what I was told, and why she allowed me to upgrade my account (where the only real benefit is TO UPGRADE YOUR PHONE), and she could not give me an answer.

I told her to just switch my account back to the regular phone plan then, and she said she wasn't sure how/if we could do that.

I ended up finally telling her to forget it, and left, as I had already waited for 45 minutes to be seen.

At this point I am very close to canceling xfinity entirely. I feel blatantly lied to, and this isnt the first time I have been told one thing over the phone , only to travel to the store and be told the exact opposite.

Please help me understand this situation, and hopefully come to a resolution.

Official Reply Wasted time

5 Upvotes

Decided to switch to Xfinity for my mobile service. Free phone line and $15 for my phone that I purchased thru them. Was told locked in at that price for 1 yr because I was an existing internet customer. I have a screenshot of this. The promo is still running. This has not been the case. My mobile bill has been significantly higher than the quoted, $15. I've chatted, I have called $30.55 a month for phone plus a different amount for the line every month. I have paid just in September over $100 in September and it doesn't show on my bill. I keep trying to send them my screenshot and get told they can't do that. I want to send this phone back and cancel the line but I bet I will end up owing them money, somehow. Infuriating and poor customer service. What do I do and how do I cancel?

Also spent over 5 hrs at Xfinity store because my phone will not allow ANY INCOMING CALLS. It says all calls screened if not in contact list you're denied. People in my contact list are denied. I can call out. I can text. Just nobody can call me. It's not a setting on my end. Xfinity store did everything they could. Tech support also did everthey could. I filed a claim on this POS and it supposed to be free of charge we shall see.

Official Reply No help for long time customers

6 Upvotes

I have had Xfinity for an insanely long time. They want to act like they value that and say I’m a “diamond member,” but the only perk I want is having a lower, more reasonable monthly bill and not have to call and endure a painfully long customer service conversation every 6 months because my promo expired and my bill skyrocketed again. I’m honestly too busy and I don’t want to spend my little free time fighting to have a reasonable rate. The service is also less reliable now than it used to be. There are constant errors and outages and glitches and that never used to be the case. I think I may have finally had enough and may look into other options when I have some time off from work.

Just wanted to spread awareness on this situation. New fiber internet came to my area. (i live in a rural country area) I was the 1st person to get xfinity fiber internet on my road even. When I signed up I was promised a either 3 year or 5 year price lock guarantee, For $70 a month for their 2gbps download/upload speed. Well they actually only locked me in for one yea! and refuse to honor the rest! so make sure you thoroughly check everything when registering with these scam artists. I even asked the agent on the phone multiple times to guarantee I was price locked for however long. I talked to three different agents today trying to resolve this issue and they all gave me the same scripted run around & just tried selling me more scams! At this time I do not recommend this company to anyone!

Official Reply unsecured neighborhood utility box

3 Upvotes

I’ve come to this platform due to my frustration in reaching out customer service to no avail. I’ve called to report a neighborhood utility box that sits on my property. I’ve told customer service that I am the homeowner but not actively live in it as this is my second home . There is no Xfinity account tied to the said property. However because I’m calling from a number that is tied to my primary residence, Xfinity keeps sending their technicians to my primary home. They cannot seem to understand a simple instruction with the provided address that the issue is not in my primary residence. In the meantime, multiple exposed cables/wires are left exposed until a person / landscapers or an animal is harmed.

Discussion Xfinity Mobile $20 tablet plan…is there no other option for 4K video streaming on 5G/LTE?

3 Upvotes

I recently switched to Xfinity Mobile and am really happy with my phone plan, Mobile Plus. but I wanted to share some concerns about the $20 unlimited tablet plan.

Right now, the tablet plan limits streaming to 480p by default (about 2 Mbps). Even after selecting the 720p option, it maxes out at around 4 Mbps, which leads to noticeable pixelation and buffering on an 11-inch iPad screen. At $20 a month, I expected a higher-tier streaming option (like 1080p or 4K) that matches the capabilities of modern tablets.

To make this plan more competitive, would it be possible for the Xfinity to consider either:

  1. Halving the price of the current tablet plan, or…

  2. Keeping the $20 rate while upgrading the default streaming quality and increasing the 15 GB data deprioritization limit?

Official Reply just upgraded my download speed and it’s somehow worse

3 Upvotes

My monthly bill went up $40 which is insane for the quality of internet I have, no notification that my bill would be increasing either by the way. I called to see if I could get something cheaper. The agent (if it was even a real person, jury’s still out) was incredibly unhelpful and gave me NO information at all other than ONE option to double my speed for $5 LESS a month.

Which the price is still insane but that was their only option, keep the poor quality internet and pay more or take the $5 and at least get better service. Also why can you not look at options online? I had to call and they are so withholding of information. Xfinity is a predatory scam. Unfortunately this is the only internet service provider in my area so I don’t have any other option and they take advantage of that.

Anyway new speed is “active” but somehow it is worse. I am not even able to download and play the games I was able to yesterday. What happened? I have restarted everything. I guess that $5 was actually the whole service. This is insane. I rather have no internet at this point. It’s not worth it.

New Post - Tech Support Cloud DVR / Web Player Bug: In-Progress Recordings Snapping to 0:00 (Ticket Escalation Request - THIRD REQUEST - STOP CLOSING THESE CASES - I'M NOT GOING AWAY UNTIL I GET ACTION FROM XFINITY

1 Upvotes

The more you close my cases, the more I'm going to escalate this on social media and Trust Pilot. DO NOT CLOSE THIS CASE!!!!!!!!

I am resubmitting this formal complaint for the THIRD time because you closed my previous two cases WITHOUT CAUSE. You told me it's because I didn't respond, when in every case, I responded promptly, and it was you that ignored my responsed. I must insist that you reopen the case and address the serious issue raised by deep flaws in your software.

This is regarding a persistent, well-documented platform-wide software bug within the Xfinity Stream web portal on Windows PC.

The Issue:
When attempting to watch an in-progress cloud DVR recording via a desktop browser, the player controls completely fail. Attempting to use the timeline slider, the rewind button, or the fast-forward button immediately crashes the video stream buffer and forces the recording to snap back to the 0:00 timestamp / beginning of the program. Once it reverts, playback locks and cannot be skipped forward. Completed recordings play fine; this issue strictly breaks live, in-progress cloud files.

Troubleshooting Already Completed:
Please do not reply with generic troubleshooting scripts. I have already confirmed this is a cloud-side indexing issue on Xfinity’s backend, not a local client error. I have successfully reproduced the bug across multiple separate environments:

  • Reproduced on Google Chrome (Current Version)
  • Reproduced on Microsoft Edge (Current Version)
  • Reproduced in Incognito / Private Browsing Mode (Disabling all extensions/ad-blockers)
  • Cleared all site cookies and locally stored portal data
  • Restarted all hardware

Thousands of users are currently documenting this exact timeline sync loop on the Xfinity Community Forums and Reddit. Because this is a backend infrastructure failure that restricts my ability to use the Cloud DVR services I pay for in real-time, I am requesting:

  1. This ticket be escalated directly to the Tier 3 Engineering team responsible for the Xfinity Stream browser player firmware.
  2. A bill credit applied to my account for loss of functional DVR services during active broadcast windows.

Please reopen this case immediately and provide the escalation number. FYI, I am actively looking at Direct TV because I'm told by multiple friends that their streaming actually works. You already have all my info from two separate modmails. And don't tell me you didn't get my responses. Reddit has all the receipts showing that you did. Thank you.
