I signed up for Xfinity in September. I signed up because I was told there was a discount for families on financial assistance which I am. I was told the discount only took off a certain amount of money , I believe 30 dollars. Then I was informed that if I got Xfinity mobile and set up auto pay for both accounts, I would pay a total of 0 dollars for home Wi-Fi and 45 dollars a month for mobile . I paid all activation fees and cancelled my old phone service . I was told it would take a few days to receive my phone number to activate my mobile , as soon as I got it , I activated the account . i have never been late with my mobile payment. I went to pick up my free equipment, the representative in the store did not understand why it was free until he viewed the account for 30 minutes . I then saw my account was being charged for Wi-Fi, I went in store and the representative did not understand how i shouldve only been paying 0 dollars for home Wi-Fi until looking into the account for an hour, he told me someone should reach out to me to fix the account, no one ever did. I called and a representative told me it was no way I would pay 0 and said someone would call me , they never did . I called again , a representative told me they could get my account discounted 150 dollars and Id only have to pay 50, we got disconnected , it never was applied to the account . I called again the representative understood how it shouldve been 0 dollars , finally, but when she escalated the issue they were only willing to do a 93 dollar credit, it never reflected on my account. I spoke to another representative who says she never saw the escalation but she can get 60 dollars off. The last representative said she would speak to supervisors and listen to my first call to see what happened All in all ,no one has been able to assist me in resolving this issue. I am afraid that I will not receive a call back since this has been my experience thus far with Xfinity. I sadly feel scammed.Business Response

File Number:21630162
Date of Notice:***** 26, 2024
Dear Sir or Madam:
This letter is in response to the above-referenced complaint submitted to your office by *********************.
The federal government?recently announced that ***** 2024 will be the last month it will fully fund the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP). Although ***** is the last fully funded month for ACP, partial funding has been made available for participants in May 2024. Xfinity is pleased to provide customers that are already in enrolled in ACP with Xfinity as of May 1, 2024 with a partial credit of up to $14 (up to $35 in Tribal lands) towards their ACP-eligible service for the last month of the program. In June, ACP enrolled customers will see the benefit removed from their account, and they will be responsible for the full cost of their Xfinity Internet and/or Xfinity Mobile services. Comcast continues to offer Internet Essentials and Internet Essentials ************ to ACP-eligible customers, which includes all equipment and download speeds of up to 50 Mbps for $9.95/month or download speeds up to 100 Mbps for $29.95/month. Additionally, Comcast has special offers on other Internet plans with even faster speeds and will work with customers to find the right package at the right price.
On September 3 and 4, 2023, ************** applied and was approved, respectively, to enroll in ACP with Xfinity. On September 5, 2023, a $30 ACP credit was applied to Ms. ****** account, which credit reflected on her October 1, 2023, billing statement. Beginning with her October 1, 2023, billing statement, ************** consistently received an ACP credit each month to date.
On ***** 29, 2024, I spoke with ************** to advise of the above information and discuss additional concerns. Our records reflect the account was enrolled in Fast Internet and ****** at the retail rates. Additionally, the account reflected ******** promotions for ************** and the Internet/Voice equipment rental. The promotions were effective from September 3, 2023, and would have expire on September 2, 2025. Once the promotion expired, the retail rate would apply.
The account was eligible for an additional Xfinity Mobile multi-product discount for 24 months with activation of a Xfinity Mobile ************** line. Activation of the Xfinity Mobile line was required within 90 days of the service order date of September 3, 2023.
On September 16, 2023, a Xfinity Mobile line was activated. Inadvertently, the multi-product discount was not added to the account until November 8, 2023. On May 8, 2024, a credit for the multi-product discount was applied to the account, which will reflect on her June 6, 2024, billing statement.
At Ms. ****** request, her residential service account was disconnected on May 6, 2024, with an effective stop bill date of ***** 26, 2024. As a courtesy, a credit was applied to the account on ***** 26, 2024, and will appear on the May 1, 2024, billing statement.
I am providing a copy of this letter, which includes my contact information, to ************** so that she can contact me with additional questions or concerns.

Complaint: 21630162
I am rejecting this response because:I recently received a statement by mail saying I owe 118 dollars . I had asked for this to be resolved and I would continue with XFINITY home WiFi . Instead no one ever called me back once it was found out that I did pay for Xfinity mobile within the 90 days to receive the discount . (Meaning I never shouldve had to owe anything for home WiFi) also the acp discount ends in June and my service has been disconnected already so that does not apply to this situation . When I spoke on the phone to two different escalation specialist , I was told Id be getting a call back. Instead my services were just cancelled and a bill came in the mail . My concern is my bill will still not reflect a 0 out balance as it should . I was told that the home internet side was not able to see that I made a payment before December , even though I could see it on the mobile app and my bank statement. I was then told that would be confirmed with the mobile side . I then get a call from the mobile side of Xfinity stating they are unsure why the were assigned the call. More of the run around. They were able to see the payment made on time , meaning the discount shouldve been applied, meaning I should not have a payment due from October to November since I paid before the 90 days . Yet Ive still not received clear communication that I dont owe anything . What credit is being applied to the 118 dollar balance that will show on my June statement ? I am still very confused on what has been resolved , if anything . Again no one ever reached back out to me.

This ****** is in response to the above-referenced complaint submitted to the Better Business Bureau by ********************* regarding Xfinity service.
I attempted to contact ************* several times to discuss all concerns. While my attempts were unsuccessful, our records indicate on May 17, 2024, ************** contacted Comcast to restart services, and on May 17, 2024, she consented to add a promotion for the Fast internet service effective May 17, 2024, through May 16, 2026, with a 24-month agreement effective May 17, 2024 through May 17, 2026. Additional charges include a modem rental at no charge for 24 months, effective May 17, 2024 through May 16, 2026. Monthly charges may be reduced by a monthly discount when signing up for paperless billing and automatic payments. However, records indicate ************** is currently not enrolled in the self-service options and does not receive that discount.
On May 17, 2024, a payment was made to the account shown on the May 17, 2024 billing statement. I will need to speak with ************** directly to address her concerns. I apologize for any inconvenience experienced while attempting to resolve this matter.

I reached out to Xfinity to resolve an issue with my internet and cable line. On 4/17 a technician came to resolve the issue to no avail, a ticket was put in and someone would call me. On 4/19 a temporary solution was placed and I was told that a technician would be out within the next week. On 4/21 I received a message that within 3 days it would be resolved. On 4/25 my service went out again, I asked for an early next morning( 7:30 am) appointment which I was told after being transferred twice I had received. On 4/26 no one showed up, I called Xfinity and was told that I was given incorrect information and my appointment was later in the day. The agent LIED and went as far as to say they spoke to someone in my city and everything. No urgency to resolve my problem and I have been without proper internet for 10 days! I am EXTREMELY dissatisfied with the lack of concern I received from all but two agents( ******* and ****). I have now been waiting on my birthday for over 5 hours for someone to arrive. I have yet to be able to speak to a supervisor who can help. I am still waiting for a technician to arrive or a returned call from a supervisorBusiness Response

I received notification via mail that Comcast has sent a claim to a collection agency for debt I owe them. I closed my account with them in January and the final bills were paid on-time. I do not have any outstanding charges or notifications of charges from Comcast (xFinity). I have included documentation showing the cancelation and payments after the cancelation. It looks like this collection claim has already been sent to the credit rating companies, as it is showing up on my credit report. I have never missed a payment on anything (100% on time payment for all accounts) and would like this resolved and my credit restored.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because: I was never told there was a charge for the **. I was not sent any documentation, I was not told this would cancel the offer if I upgraded to the IPhone 15. Every time I called customer service I got a different story. My service was canceled on April 21st, please see attached email. I had to contact a CSR via website the next day to restore my service and set up my new phone. The XFinity representative that contacted me about this complaint was rude and dismissive. I sent the ** back for the trade in and it was returned to me. I am taking my service to another carrier.

I did a mobile phone upgrade w/ Xfinity Mobile which has turned into a nightmare. After this is resolved, i will be seeking a new service with a new provider because this is insane. I returned the device with **** return label **********************. Per Xfinity they have received the device. Yet, they had me return my current device for the upgrade. Then turn around and began charging me the remainder of the old phone on top of charging me for the new device. if this is the case, why have me send in my old device if I will still need to make payments on it and they keep it. This makes no common sense. I was advised upon the upgrade that i would return my present device and receive a $500 credut towards a new device. But this has not been the case and every time you call these foreigners they hired in ther countries say they help you but you get th4e worst responses and assistance. Xfinity does not care because they are a monopoly and they are a rip off. I need to get this resolved so I can go back to **** because I will not deal with this incomptence. This has not been the first time i have dealt with something like this with Xfinity. They do this and don't think twice about taking your money and abusing their customers.Business Response

Once received the device must undergo a grading process and the order must be completed to remove the remaining Device Payment Plan balance from the upgraded device.
Due to an error, ****************** remaining Device Payment Plan balance from the ******* Galaxy S22 Ultra, device ID ending in 0731 was not removed from his account. On April 26, 2024, the remaining balance for ****************** ******* Galaxy S22 ultra was advanced into his billing cycle of April 5, 2024, through May 4, 2024, and a credit was applied to remove that balance. ****************** was advised customers may take advantage of early upgrades to purchase devices on select Xfinity Mobile promotions.

Hello,My internet service was was disrupted when the construction on the roof of my condo cut the cable for my internet. This happened in December 2023. Xfinity Comcast has still been charging me and has yet to resolve the issue related to fixing the problem. Today is April 26, 2024. I am still being billed for the service and have not had service for 4 months. I have repeatedly asked for a refund and for the service to be fixed. My condo says that xfinity Comcast knows what they can and can not do to fix the issue after hours of working with them. I think the main issue is that I am still being charged for the service even though I keep requesting a refund and a pause on my bill until the issue is fixed. I am not sure what to do at this point in time. Please advise.my goal is to stop being billed for a service I am not receiving and to fix the problem by returning internet service to my unit.Business Response

Dear Xfinity,
Thank you for finally unlocking the iPhone 12 Pro (Device ID ending in *****. We appreciate this resolution.
However, we are disappointed with the amount of effort it took to get this resolved. It's concerning that Xfinity had no issue with us using the phone while we were still Xfinity Mobile customers, even though you claim the device wasn't fully paid off. Yet, the moment we switched carriers, the unlock became a significant hurdle.
We hope Xfinity can improve its communication and transparency regarding device payment plans, especially for secondhand purchases.
Sincerely,

Comcast/ Xfinity has wrongfully charged me cable TV for services and equipment that I never asked for, received or never authorized for 2 years. I was not asked nor affirmatively requested to have TV/Cable access since I don't even watch TV. Comcast added charges to my bills for unordered services or products, such as CHOICE TV, HD Technology, Streampix, Cloud DVR 20 hours, ************ Fee, Install Fee for Cable (nobody ever came or no appointment was made but still charged, Equipment Fee was charged but NEVER delivered. I have specifically declined service or equipment upgrades offered by Comcast and I emphasized at all times I only want INTERNET nothing else, my household doesn't even have a TV for the most time. I found out when I called them and requested to inform me why my bills have got more and more constantly increasing charges monthly. I spent weeks in time and energy to attempt to remove the unauthorized charges from their bills and obtain refunds but with no success they would deny my ticket and complaints, on the phone they would just hang up even though I waited for hours, also if I request to speak to a supervisor they would let me wait for an hour and than hang up. Here are the Ticket numbers/ case numbers that were declined :ECM0006994349 and also ECM0006995013 that was declined. They told me that I have agreed to cable and I NEVER did so I asked them to send me proof again they let me wait on the phone and hang up!!! 1 good agent the employee's name was ***, he helped me to cancel everything and told me they wrongfully charged me and even never have sent me cable, and that this wasn't the first time this happened. He also said it's funny but they even charged me a service and never delivered the equipment All in all I NEVER knowingly accepted Cable/TV services and equipment by affirmative statements or actions, and they have deceived me for 2 years thinking my internet alone cost me $200 monthly. $100 monthly for cable, so $2400 overpaid.Business Response

Date of Notice:April 26, 2024
Dear Sir/Madam:
This ****** is in response to the above-referenced complaint submitted to the Better Business Bureau by ********************************* regarding Xfinity service.
On May 2, 2024, I communicated via email with ************************ regarding a billing explanation. Our records indicate that the 24-month transitional promotion for ********* and Gigabit Extra Internet, ended the introductory 12-month contractual rate effective October 21, 2022, and the remaining 12-month promotional offer ended on October 22, 2023, and on October 23, 2023, retail rates became effective. The account continued to receive a 2-product discount. Additional services, taxes, fees, and equipment are not included as part of the pricing and are subject to change. The transition to retail rates was reflected on the October 19, 2023, billing statement.
On April 11, 2024, ************************ consented via text message (SMS) to a downgrade removing ************** and the account was enrolled in a 12-month contractual agreement for Gigabit Extra Internet, at a promotional rate. The offer includes an agreement term effective April 11, 2024, through April 11, 2025. The contractual rate is effective April 11, 2024, through April 22, 2025, at which time, the retail rate will apply. Additional services, taxes, fees, and equipment are not included as part of the pricing and are subject to change. The account receives a self-service discount with enrollment in automatic payments with linked credit card and paperless billing. An increased self-service discount is available with automatic payments with a linked bank account, and the updated discount will be applied within 45 days of meeting the requirements. Should either self-service option be cancelled, the discount will be removed. The change of service was reflected on the April 19, 2024, billing statement.
Please be advised the billing on this account is accurate. I provided ************************ customer education on the ************ Fee is an itemized charge on your bill that is intended to offset a portion of the costs of re-transmitting broadcast television signals. The fee is only applied to accounts with ************* and the account is currently only enrolled in Internet service. The request for compensation is not justified and is therefore respectfully denied. I apologized for any inconvenience that *** 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 **************.

The problem is simply explained. Comcast has never verbally offered me Cable/TV services and I have never requested any Cable/TV services. However, even if the original order was confirmed I was deceived to believe that I have only ordered Internet, never did I ask for Cable TV services. Also now they argue that even-though the cable equipment was never send they are saying that I could have still used cable with a smart device. You have charged me for installation and equipment that I never received. Excuses after excuses for your wrongdoing and deception, getting over folks deceiving them to rob them from paying for services they never asked for! Please have Comcast pay for their Robbery!
