Cancelled service with Comcast 7/31/24. They charged me until 8/10/24. Never did they turn off auto-pay, and on 8/19 they charged me $100.78. We moved to a state that does not have Comcast. Then they charged me a fee of $140 for early termination. I asked them to see what that was as I didn't recall that was a thing that I agreed to. The contract was set to end 10/24. Was told by multiple people that I was getting a refund in the amount of $84.50. Now they are telling me that I owe them $25.23. Story kept changing with each person I spoke with. So I am clueless as to why I am not getting the $84.50.Business Response

Dear Sir/Madam:
This ****** is in response to the above-referenced complaint submitted to the Better Business Bureau by *********************************** regarding Xfinity service.
On August 29, 2024, I spoke with ************************ and confirmed on October 26, 2023, he enrolled in a 24-month term agreement for Gigabit Internet effective October 26, 2023, through October 26, 2025. The agreement included a 48-month transitional promotional rate for Gigabit Internet beginning October 26, 2023, through October 25, 2026. On October 26, 2026, the rate would increase to the year four rates which would be valid until October 25, 2027. ************************ also received a 12-month promotional rate for xFi Complete effective October 26, 2023, through October 25, 2024. After the promotions, retail rates would apply. ************************ also had one free Xfinity ******* Box. The rates do not include taxes or fees. ************************ also received an additional monthly discount for enrollment in automatic payments and paperless billing.
On July 5, 2024, ************************ scheduled a disconnection of service with an effective stop bill date of July 31, 2024. The disconnection order was completed on August 10, 2024.
On August 15, 2024, an automatic payment drafted the amount due from Mr. *********** July 19, 2024, billing statement, which resulted in the account having a credit balance. On August 20, 2024, a credit was applied for a service issue, and will be reflected on the September 10, 2024, billing statement.
************************ disputed having a Xfinity ******* Box. Although we have no record of the box being returned to Comcast, on August 29, 2024, the Flex box was removed from the account as a courtesy.
The final bill statement dated September 10, 2024, will reflect a credit balance. Our records confirm the billing is accurate. ************************ will receive an email to the verified email address on file with options on how to redeem the refund. We will follow up with ************************ to confirm he receives the refund. I apologized for any inconvenience that may have been caused while attempting to resolve this matter.
I trust that this ****** provides your office with the information required for resolution in this matter. Should you have any questions or need additional information, please contact me at **************.

My son was in ****** for two days and was charged $456.08 for data. He received a message stating that he might incur different charges, but the message did not explain that if he were to accept a different option, the charges would be $5/day. The message was unclear and confusing and almost seemed to be intentionally vague so that we would be duped into paying 10x the available rate. It is unethical and unfair.Business Response

Rate was set to go to an unacceptable price. Internet speed's good, but television package is about 120 more than are used. I WON'T pay nearly $230 per month to watch a couple channels. Alternatives I found could have set me to about $90/month with a $50 Home Internet from T-Mo, and the Sling Blue package. I called in because I would give Comcast a chance after 14 years, to put something together. Most options involved cutting down, and only making a token price reduction. I was told of how the Blue package "lost" so much of the things the present TV package had. I pointed out that the number of unused channels wasn't a selling point. If they're never used, they're never missed. I had three specific channels that were the absolute musts (three national news channels) I was told that the cheaper plan did not have them (turns out true), but that they were available on -demand via Peacock. Turns out this is a lie. I tried contacting customer service. The phone put me through a robotic loop that kept trying to text me to some chatbot that would just have to put me through to a real human. The bot put me into a hour-plus queue with a human that vanished on me after I explained my issue. Subsequent attempts to reconnect were met with "we're busy come back later". Valued business...?I was mildly tolerant when I received a token apology because my new modem was shipped, addressed to my non-disclosed disability - rather than my name (I still tell people). I was less than thrilled at the utter incompetence shown by the call center **** when I clearly identified a data breach. I recognize I have options, and it looks like I need to use them if this company's **** are going to outright lie to me to make a sale. If the goal was "We want to to not even look back when you go to the competition", congratulations! Did you think that it would take longer than a day to find out the hard requirement to keep service wasn't there? Did you think I wasn't serious?So, here I amBusiness Response

This company does constant maintenance in my internet goes down. I can't even call in to complain or ask for a refund because the phone tree says that they're dealing with an outage in my area and therefore a customer service agent can I help me and then they hang up. This is very frustrating. I do work at night with my information being on the cloud without having internet access I'm dead in the water. If this is scheduled maintenance they could at least give me a heads up letting me know that my internet would be down. If it's scheduled they know what ahead of time and they can give their customers warning so we're not basing our work schedule around a period where we can't access the internet. So unprofessional.

I purchased an I-phone 12 mini in cash at the Apple store in ********** in 2021. I had service with T-Mobile. In January 2023 I went to the Xfinity store at ********************, *******, GA ***** and brought my I-phone 12 mini with me. The people at the store could not figure out how to unlock the phone. Because they wanted me as a new customer, they decided to give me an I-phone 12 mini which would work on their system. There was no money transaction. I have never received a bill for same. Today I received an e-mail indicating I was eligible for an early upgrade. However, I had a devise balance of $105.19. I called Xfinity. I was basically told by the first ****** I spoke to that there was nothing he could do. So I asked for a supervisor. I explained all the above to her. She said I was part of a promotion and had to pay the $105.19, or wait until my contract was up in January 2025. I feel that this is wrong. I did not buy the phone from them. I brought my phone over from T-Mobile. It is not my fault that they could not unlock the phone I brought over from T-Mobile. They gave me a phone, so they could get a new customer and a commission. I was not part of a promotion. I went to the ******* store today, but the sales ****** I had in January 2023 was not there. The turnover of their sales people is very high. I want to terminate my business as an Xfinity mobile phone customer now, not in January, and do not feel I should have to pay them anything, certainly not $105.19. I feel I am being strong armed and not being treated right. I am very disappointed at what they are trying to do. I told the supervisor I was going to make an official BBB complaint. I do not want to be a customer of theirs, if this is the way they treat customers.Customer Answer

This afternoon I received a phone call from a *******, who advised she is case manager on my case. She said she was with corporate escalation at the corporate headquarters. I assume she works from home, because when I asker her whether she was located at ***************, she said no and did not offer a location of where she is at, which I know is neither here or there. I explained to her everything that was in my complaint, that I brought an I-phone 12 mini to the Comcast store in *******, **, that I was with T-Mobile, and that I wanted to switch to Comcast. The Comcast sales clerk was unable to unlock my I-Phone mini. I waited 3 days while they tried to unlock the phone. I went to the Apple store in ********** and was told by their supervisor that Apple does not sell locked phones. They are all unlocked. ******* could only say they are not responsible for unlocking a phone. It was up to the former carrier to do so. She insisted that I was under a promotion. I said that was news to me. I was not told this by Comcast sales agent at their store in *******, GA. I was told because they could not unlock the phone that they were giving me an I-phone 12 mini, the same type of phone that I had at T-Mobile, so they could sign me up as a new customer. I told her she did not understand my situation. She said she did, but she insisted I was under a promotion and a contract. If I wanted to close the account I would have to pay the remaining amount on the promotion of $105.19 or wait until January when the contract would be over. She further advised I was being billed and credited monthly for the phone. However, I could not find any such charge. I told her I was not under a promotion and should not be under a contract. I brought my phone over from T-Mobile to their office. They could not unlock it, which is not my fault. I was not told by their sales person I was under a contract. I would not have switched to Comcast, if I had known I was going to be under contract. She said she did not know what the sales agent told me. Again, it is not my fault their agents turn over a lot and that he is no longer there. I have never received a bill indicating a charge of $24.67 per month and that it was credited out. All I want is to have Comcast close my mobile account, which she would not do, unless I would pay Comcast $105.19, which I should not have to do. I told her that continuing our conversation was pointless, that we agree to disagree. She said she would e-mail me a copy of a recent bill that would show where I was billed and credited for a monthly charge. I have not received it yet. I told her there is no way I could recommend her firm, and that I was very disappointed.Business Response

My comcast service has been a problem for well over a year. I have spent countless hours contacting them to try and get it resolved. Only after I made a first BBB complaint did anything get done, but the issue persists. My wife and I work from home and we constantly have to work off cellular data because the home internet we pay for with comcast does not work as advertised. They have no interest in fixing the issue as the area I live in is considered low value to them.They did some work to a spanner cable for the area, but that only seemed to help a bit. The quality of their service is constantly degrading. They tell me to buy new equipment because I can't use all the speed they are giving me, but that is not the issue. The issue is packet loss and signal loss constantly. At this point I feel they owe me hundreds of dollars because of the poor service and personal time I have had to invest in getting Comcast to do their job and provide the service that I pay for.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because:Comcast has been very slow to respond. The initial appointment was setup without my knowledge. I asked the *** to continue with trouble shooting the issue where it was left off in June. He has refused multiple times insisting that we must start the process over by allowing techs into my home. At Comcast's demand I have upgraded my modem and agreed to allow them an appointment in my home to look at my network again, which has already been determined to not be the issue.
My reluctance to let them in my home stems from Comcast denying on my previous complaint that anything was wrong with their network to later find a bad cable attached to the node in the neighborhood. Also the *** keeps threatening me that if Comcast finds anything wrong with my network they will charge me for the tech visit. We already know my equipment is not the issue from multiple visits before. They have lied in the past regarding the true cause of their service issues. I have already endured an expense to upgrade my modem per Comcast's demand and it has not resolved the issue.

Hello,On May 19, 2024, I contacted Xfinity **************** to request a cancellation of service as the price kept increasing. I was offered a faster speed of 500Mbps for the monthly cost of $55/month. I signed the offer and received email confirmation. After 3 months, upon checking my account, the speed was kept at 300Mbps for $66/month. I contacted Xfinity again and was told that the service upgrade order was cancelled without my knowledge. I saw 2 missed calls from Xfinity without voicemail and I couldn't call back since I did not know what it is about. There was no email communication regarding the cancellation of order. I asked Xfinity to honor the offer as in the email I received in May 19, but they said they cannot. They only credited back $50 credit as a compensation for overcharging almost $100 the last 3 months. The fact that they cancelled the order without informing customer and do not try to make it right even when I have the email confirmation of service upgrade is totally unacceptable. On top of that, when I was trying to log in to my account, the ********************** application automatically switch my credentials to a different account. I was able to access all personal information of that person including name, address, billing information as attached. This is a very serious issue in security. I wonder if my personal and financial information is getting leaked.Business Response

To the Better Business Bureau:
This letter responds to the above-referenced complaint submitted to your office by *******************.
On August 22, 2024, a Comcast ***************** Assurance technician contacted ******************* and verified that ******************* secured their online account and that ******************* is enrolled in two-factor verification.[1] ******************* confirmed they are only seeing their account information and do not require further account security assistance.
In reference to the billing concerns, the initial offer that ******************* agreed to on May 19, 2024for Fast Internet a promotional rate for 24 monthsdid not complete because of a processing error. Xfinity attempted to reach ******************* at that time to explain this information, but we were unable to reach them.
On August 21, 2024, a Comcast Executive Customer Relations representative contacted ******************* to advise them of the aforementioned information. During that interaction, a service change to Fast Internet at a promotional rate for 12 months with a 12-month agreement was completed. The promotional offer is valid from August 21, 2024, to September 10, 2025. The agreement is valid from August 21, 2024, to August 21, 2025. In addition, a 12-month monthly discount was added. The account will receive a monthly discount while enrolled in paperless billing and automatic payment using a bank account.
Sincerely,

Lost internet service, spoke with Xfinity chat agent support to resolve issue. They could not resolve the problem. They asked if I wanted to schedule a technician to come out and see what the problem was. The technician came and checked my modem and cables and couldnt find anything wrong with my system internally. He stated he has one more place to check and would need to go by the main box across the street. Upon his return he noted that my cable was disconnected within the main box resulting not having WiFi for five days. Only another technician would have access to the main box and cables. WiFi was now working after the reconnection of our cable.Fast forward a week later I received Xfinity mail at my address for someone who doesnt reside at my home. So I called Xfinity again to make them aware of the mixup/mistake and the chat agent told me the technician actually mistakenly typed my address number under the new account and was to disregard the mail (still receiving mail for that person)Then I got a bill with an additional $100 charge for the technician coming to my home to fix my WiFi problem? The problem was externally and not internal to my home, how was I being charged for the incompetence of their technician who disconnected my service for five days! Ive requested my refund twice without any resolution to date. If this was a bad modem or cable in my house no problem paying the $100!I did download both chat conversation with the chat agent if required.Thank youBusiness Response

Date of Notice:August 20, 2024
Dear Sir/Madam:
This ****** is in response to the above-referenced complaint submitted to the Better Business Bureau by ******************************* regarding Xfinity service.
On August 27, 2024, I spoke with ******************** regarding a billing concern. On June 21, 2024, a service visit was scheduled during which time the technician completed the visit as a customer equipment problem. As a result, a valid service visit fee was applied to the account on June 23, 2024. Service visits involving customer education, resolving customer-owned equipment concerns, and inside wiring concerns are eligible for a service charge.
During our conversation, I explained that the service visit fee was applied correctly. As a one-time courtesy, a credit was applied to the account on August 20, 2024 for the service visit fee. The credit reflected on the August 25, 2024 billing statement.
Lastly, the request for a refund has been respectfully denied as ********************' account is active and the billing on the account is accurate. Refunds on accounts are only processed if the account has been disconnected, all equipment is returned, the account finalized, and a credit balance remains on the account. I apologized for any inconvenience that may have been caused while attempting to resolve this matter.
I trust this ****** provides your office with the information required for resolution in this matter. Should you have any questions or need additional information, please contact me at **************.
Sincerely,
******************
