I had an appointment today between 8-10. The technician arrived with an attitude his whole ******** and body language were giving off, and he didn't want to be here. He stepped in the door and said, "****, I'm supposed to install some cameras and a doorbell. I don't know who put this order in but we can't install none of that stuff outside". I say why you can't? I already have cameras from Comcast outside that were installed five years ago. So then he said, "Well I don't know the technician was not supposed to do that". I tell him I've had them troubleshooter and everything numerous times and nobody said anything. I'm about to call them because I need my stuff installed it's court-ordered for my behavioral daughter to be able to return home. I say well ok do what you can while I wait inside. He says "Well I'm confused about what needs to be done because they don't have you down for a new install". I say well I got charged $150 just like I did five years ago so if you have to do a new install go ahead. He proceeds to ask me what needs to be done and I show him the monitor to the security system, the camera in my living room, and the one out front above my son's window. Then he said well I don't know what you need, I said look at the monitor it will show you. He then said that he would have to swap out my monitor and that my keypad needed batteries. I said I could get some, and he said ok and that any equipment he had to replace I would be charged and I said ok. I leave to go get batteries with an adult lying across the couch. I'm heading back and he's at the four-way stop with me. I'm turning right heading to my house and he's turning left. But I'm sitting waiting for him to go but he refuses I just wanted to see if he left without telling anyone and he did and canceled my appointment.Business Response

I spent 4.5 hours this afternoon/evening, trying to obtain activation of my own NETGEAR modem through my Comcast/Xfinity account. Although I pay for 2Gig, I only get 1 if I am lucky. It was recommended that I use my own modem and a separate router. Comcast makes it virtually impossible to cancel the rental of Xfinity branded equipment and instead use your own modem. Thats a $15/month loss to Comcast. They have motive to make this process unachievable. The first chat assistant ***resented that he could get this done for me but that I would have to agree to a new plan AND that I would receive an 11th Gen ***** not specifying if this were free or otherwise. The transcript will show that the *** stated this was mandatory. After I received the text verification / agreement, I agreed. I expected at that time that I would be activated. Instead, I was told that he was still working on the iPad part. I firmly asked him to please get my modem activated. I found out in my 4th call (the 2 prior calls simply disconnected, midstream), that it is untrue that the iPad package deal was not required in order for a customer to utilize their own modem. I never received a call from a supervisor, although I was told to expect their call. It is now about 6 hours following my first attempt. Im still not connected with my own modem and havent received a call back excepting 1 time where I could not reach the phone in time. One then needs to get back in line (another ***** min). I suspect that Comcast might have a hand in this but uncertain.Business Response

10/14/23 Visited Xfinity/Comcast store in ********. Was told monthly bill would be $115.00 for 2 years. Signed up for install/service contract 10/23/23 Tech arrived, said he couldn't install, needed permit from dig safe.DATE?? Got text about cancellation. That was their error. Called again and had to start from scratch. This time was told monthly bill would be $122.00. Closest appt for install was 12/1/23.12/1/23 Tech arrived and did install.December bill was wrong. They billed $100 for installation instead of $50.00.12/17/23 Went back to store. Was told they could not fix it, had to call Comcast. Called Comcast, they said needed to go to store. 1/22/24 My acct was charged $135.19 through auto pay, but no $10 auto pay credit was applied.6/27/24 Regular monthly charge increased by $25.52 for "broadcast tv fee". Chatted on line with ****. Explained I have a 2 year contract. After much chatting he agreed to credit my account $29.00. I asked if this just was a 1 month credit and he said yes. I asked for his manager and he had support team call me. A lady named "Love" called and agreed with me that the broadcast tv fee should be removed from my acct for the remainder of the contract. Until at least 1/31/26.7/29/24 New bill has $28.90 broadcast tv fee. Chatted with *****, but got no where, he had support team call me. Spoke with *****. She confirmed that she could see the notes from my prior conversation with Love, but said that Love was wrong in telling me that. The broadcast tv fee is a "fee" that is covered by their disclaimer that "taxes and fees" are subject to change at any time. Our conversation ended poorly at 8:10 PM.Business Response

Case Number:22063045
Date of Notice:July 30, 2024
Dear Sir/Madam:
This ****** is in response to the above-referenced complaint submitted to your office by ****** and ***************************.
The ************ Fee is an itemized charge that appears on customers bills. The ************ Fee is not a government-mandated fee and will increase from time to time. It is based on our costs of providing the local broadcast stations that we carry on our cable systems in each area. These costs include the fees that broadcast stations charge us to carry them on our cable systems, fees that are among the fastest growing components of our programming costs. The ************ Fee is not included as a part of pricing under a promotion or minimum-term agreement and can increase during a promotion or minimum-term. Because ****************** Xfinity TV Service includes local broadcast programming, he is charged the ************ Fee.
Customers received advance notice before the ************ Fee was first introduced, and they receive advance notice before an increase of the fee ************ Fee takes effect. In addition, Comcast discloses the ************ Fee at several points throughout the customer experience, including in its advertising, during a customers ordering process, on a customers bill, and through customer support and education on ********************* website. When a customer adds a new service and before ******************** seeks the customers approval at the final point of sale, the customer is informed of the ************ Fee.
Our records indicate on October 14, 2023, ********************* requested new service and on October 14, 2023, a deposit for new service was paid. On the date of installation on October 23, 2023, the field technician determined while the location was marked as serviceable, there was no line feeding the home. A work order for line installation/burial to the home required a survey of the location, permitting and make safe procedures be implemented prior to scheduling construction to bring the line to the home. On November 22, 2023, the deposit was refunded back to checking account ending in 3708 due to the work order cancelation. On November 30, 2023, the line was successfully installed and activated to the home.
The autopayment/paperless billing discount using checking account ending in 3708 was enabled by ******************** on October 14, 2023, on November 9, 2023, disabled and added again on November 13, 2023. Due to the installation failure and cancelation of the service request, the autopayment/paperless billing was disabled on December 21, 2023, by our Finance team due to eligibility requirements.
Due to the service installation delay, all prior service work orders were canceled. On November 13, 2023, ******************** accepted a 24-month promotion for ********* and Fast Internet effective December 1, 2023, through November 30, 2025, and then a 12-month promotion effective December 1, 2025, through November 30, 2026. After the promotion, retail rates were to apply. The McNeils also accepted Xfinity Voice at retail rates. The rates do not include equipment, taxes, or fees. The package also included an additional three-product monthly discount. Installation fees were assessed to the account on December 1, 2023, and on December 18, 2023, credited. The credit is reflected on the December 24, 2023, billing statement.
On January 2, 2024, **************** accepted a new 24-month promotion for ********* and Fast Internet effective January 2, 2024, through January 31, 2026, and a 12-month promotional rate effective February 1, 2026, through January 31, 2027. After the promotional rate expires, retail rates will apply. The Xfinity ************* and three-product discount were unchanged. The rates do not include equipment, taxes, or fees.
Due to a billing error, following the January 2, 2024, package change, the ************ Fee was removed from the account. This error was corrected, and the May 24, 2024, billing statement provided notification of the billing error. The ************ fee was reapplied to the account and is reflected as of the June 24, 2024, billing statement. Due to ****************************** package continuing to include local broadcast channels, this fee is accurate.
On June 27, 2024, a courtesy credit for one month of ************ Fee billing was applied to the account, which is reflected on the July 24, 2024, billing statement. The request for additional compensation due to the inclusion of the ************ fee is not justified and respectfully denied.
On July 30, 2024, and July 31, 2024, I communicated with **************** via email and provided her with the aforementioned information. **************** was advised that due to the ************ Fee being billed incorrectly, they are not responsible for a Comcast error and no back charges would be assessed. I apologize 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 of this matter. Should you have any questions or need additional information, please contact me at **************.

Complaint: 22063045
I am rejecting this response because:The broadcast tv fee was never mentioned at the "store" when I chose my package, nor during the first several months of the confusion over the multiple setups and cancelations, nor during the first few bills. None of the cancellations were my fault.
All the issues with the autopay/paperless billing was due to ineffective on-line chats and phone calls with representatives. They kept trying to make the autopay work, but during the process they insisted we had to start all over with new account terms. I still have the 1/2/24 email that Comcast sent to confirm the new 24 month promotion they said they had to set up to fix the autopay. It details charges, fees and taxes, but the TV broadcast fee is still not there.
My decision to cancel my prior internet/tv/phone supplier was based on the rates I was quoted in the store in October 2023.
It is my strong opinion that Comcast should not be able to say "sorry" and leave it at that. We had an agreement and they did not stick with it.

After being transferred from agent to agent and on hold for hours over weeks ive been told by 1 agent that when my internet bill is canceled my phone bill will NOT increase. Another agent told me it would be a $25 increase. Another agent told me it would be a $50 increase.

To avoid standalone mobile fees for unlimited talk and text on your Xfinity Mobile bill and have the freedom to add lines to accounts, customers must maintain either *********************************************, ********************** Voice, or Xfinity TV service. If our customers move to a new address that doesn't qualify for Xfinity Internet, Xfinity Voice,or Xfinity TV, or if they cancel these services for any reason, they will see a monthly $25.00 fee per line on future Xfinity Mobile bills. Should ************** upgrade to the latest data plan the fee would be $25.00 per account instead of per line.
On August 6, 2024, I spoke with ************** regarding her Xfinity Mobile concerns.Our records confirm that ************** still has active Xfinity Internet service,therefore the line access fee does not apply. ************** did not wish to disconnect her Xfinity Internet service, at that time.

In April 28th I received a promotional offer with Comcast Xfinity for Internet service. In order to get the promo, I had to return a streaming device and router To **********************. Xfinity shipped us equipment to work with the updated service.After activation, I returned the equipment on May 3rd to the closest branch as directed and received a receipt for the return.In a billing statement dated May 28th I received a bill for $205for the returned equipment. On June 8th, I had a second email exchange; after a back and forth I re-presented the receipt documenting the return. Once again I was told our account would be updated and corrected.We also received a number of phone calls with equipment recovery representatives demanding $205.00 for the equipment. Note that each time I attempted to clarify and resolve the issue it was time consuming and frustrating.on July 29, our internet service was disconnected for the past due balance- for the already returned equipment.After a frustrating morning I eventually was able to reach a billing specialist. chat id -****************** My name is ******* am from Billing department.After a lengthy chat with *****, a credit was applied . Due to the poor experience he offered an upgrade and 2-year promotional rate. To compensate for the frustration and account disruption he offered:The deal we have added will also give you a brand new iPad of 10th generation with unlimited data for iPad and it will be completely yours to keep. With iPad included it will become $10 less as $55 monthly for internet and iPad included.(I was able to screenshot much of this exchange; in addition I shared these details to family members that can attest to this offer, which has been refuted.Business Response

Dear Sir/Madam:
This ****** is in response to the above-referenced complaint submitted to the Better Business Bureau by ***************************.
On April 28, 2024, a voluntary disconnect order was received for ************* residential services. The request was processed the same day. The services that were disconnected were Connect More Internet and Xfinity Flex, with a rented gateway. ************* services were not terminated for non-payment. That same day, a reconnect order was placed on the account for Connect More Internet with a Xumo streaming box and rented gateway. That order was cancelled on May *******. A billing statement was generated on May 28, 2024. Appearing on this statement are unreturned equipment fees for two devices. On July 29, 2024, both pieces of equipment were removed from the account, and the associated unreturned equipment fees were removed from the bill.
On July 29, 2024, two different contracts were signed for service reactivation. The initial agreement was for a 24-month agreement for Fast Internet at a promotional rate and an xFi Complete modem rental fee. This order was cancelled later that day. A new order was then submitted for a 12-month agreement for Connect More Internet at a promotional rate, and a free modem rental. Neither of these agreements included a free 10th generation iPad with unlimited data.

My issues are that Xfinity put me into an agreement with false terms. Allowed for their ***resentatives to knowingly lie to their consumers to make sales. They stole money from me by allowing a credit card that was used as a one time payment to be saved in their system by a shady ***resentative Charged and authorized payments to said card without my consent or knowledge. Continuously push me from *** to *** when they don't want to deal with my issues. Keep me stranded on indefinite hold patterns keep me tied up for hours at a time with no resolution. Give contradictory statements. Are very combative. When I finally had a *** that took the time to read through previous conversations and try to help me get resolution they looped someone else I. That was just disrespectful to her and very combative. They continue to promise to have supervisors get involved and call back but I've been waiting over 6 months on some issues and have never heard boo back. It's the same situation time and time again. They take your money. But never give you what you pay for in return. At least not in full they don't. I have attached my latest round of issues in the attachments as they are too long to describe with only ***** characters. It includes fraud, theft, broken guarantees, bait and switch tactics, sales under false pretense, no follow through, and the continuation of never rectifying complaints and issues.

Case Number: 22062225
Date of Notice: July 30, 2024
Dear *** or Madam:
This letter responds to the above-referenced complaint submitted to your office by *** **** *******.
On June 4, 2024, *** ******* accepted Xfinity Connect More Internet and Xfinity ******************* services at a non-contractual promotional monthly rate. Comcast has confirmed that a service order was sent to *** ******* on June 4, 2024, listing the services he selected, his estimated monthly billing including taxes and fees, and information about Comcasts data usage policy. This promotional rate included a monthly discount for *** ******** voluntary enrollment in Comcasts AutoPay and paperless billing options.
On August 2, 2024, a Comcast Executive Customer Relations representative spoke with *** ******* to address his residential account concerns and provided him with a detailed explanation of his Internet service and billing. *** ******* expressed that his Xfinity Internet service did not need to be fixed and inquired about service options, which were provided to him. During the call, *** ******* accepted a 12-month term agreement for Xfinity Gigabit Extra Internet-only service at a promotional monthly rate that includes a monthly discount for his continued automatic payment and paperless billing enrollment. The monthly rate does not include charges for any additional services, additional equipment, applicable taxes, or fees. *** ******* added unlimited data for an additional monthly fee. A service order confirmation was sent to *** ******* that listed the services he removed from his account, the new services he selected, information about his 12-month term agreement, and his estimated monthly billing.
Regarding Xfinity Mobile, on June 4, 2024, *** ******* purchased two ******** *********** devices. At that time, Xfinity Mobile did not offer a promotion through which eligible customers could qualify to receive monthly device payment credits for 24 months.
Regarding Xfinity Mobile billing, as outlined in the Xfinity Mobile Customer Agreement, service is provided on a month-to-month basis and customers are billed monthly, in advance, for their recurring charges. Also, Xfinity Mobile customers agree to enroll in the automatic payment program and authorize Xfinity Mobile to withdraw their monthly billing from their self-designated bank card. Monthly billing invoices are available online for active accounts and a billing message is sent to the customer by email. Customers can also opt-in to receive push notifications regarding their billing invoices.
Upon receipt of the complaint, an Xfinity Mobile representative contacted *** ******* and explained the above information. On August 1, 2024, the devices were deactivated on the Xfinity Mobile account, and a return label was sent to *** ******* to send the devices back via ******
*** ******* will need to send the device back via ****** Once the device has been graded in like-new condition, the remaining cost of the device will be removed from the account, and *************************** device charges will be refunded. If the devices are not received back, the charges will remain valid, and no credits or refunds will be issued.
On August 1, 2024, a refund for the June 8July 7, 2024, billing cycle was issued, along with a credit to offset the refund. On August 2, 2024, a refund for the taxes paid at the time of purchase was issued, with a credit to offset the refund. The device balance for both devices were accelerated, and a bulk credit was applied to remove the balances. A separate credit was applied to remove the service-related charges for the July 8August 28, 2024, billing cycle.

Complaint: 22062225
I am rejecting this response because:
While I do agree with a lot of what was stated in the message above, I feel like there is quite a bit of things stated that leave a lot to interpretation.First, ****** did help quite a bit and I believe the Xfinity Mobile issues should all be complete now. I do show the refunds have been given and I did return the devices as they requested what was never discussed was why my card was ever saved for autopay without my permissions and how do I prevent that from happening in the future.
I also did speak with ****** regarding the residential services. Unfortunately there was not much of a deal or help he could provide and an explanation on why the original representative told me that their data usages aren't accurate. Regardless, I ended up needing to drop the home security and additional services. I ended up needing to signup for unlimited high speed data through him.
HERE IS MY MAIN REASON FOR REJECTING THIS RESPONSE. DURING MY CONVERSATION WITH ******, HE TOLD ME MY TOTAL **** ***** FOR UNLIMITED GIG SPEED INTERNET WOULD BE $125/m. HE SAID WITH MU AUTOPAY DISCOUNT IT WOULD DROP THE TOTAL DOWN TO $115/m AND THAT IMCLUDED TAXES AND FEES. NOW LOOKING AT MY CURRENT BILL IT IS SHOWING $129 WHICH IS NOT WHAT I WAS TOLD OR AGREED TO. I HAVE ATTEMPTED TO CONTACT HIM SEVERAL TIMES SINCE THE THEN AND CANNOT GET A RESPONSE.
I need the bill to be fixed to the agreed upon $115 he stated in order for me to accept this resolution. It should be mentioned that the autopay discount not being applied to my account for the last 12 months is not hat has led me to need to contact Xfinity every month to get this fixed. I do not want to have to contact them every month to have this discount applied again and would like to reserve the right to either keep this complaint open to verify the autopay discount continues to be applied every month after they fix this month, or to be able to (re)open a new complaint when this issue inevitably continues to happen.
please confirm the bill has been fixed and how it will continue to be reflected on future bills and I will gladly accept this resolution. If not, this proves exactly what my issue has been all along and I will need to cancel all services.
Regards,
**** *******Customer Answer

I would like to send an update that as of 8/23 I still have not seen the billing updated to reflect the agreed upon $115 per month bill. I have reached out to the person (******) in the executive office that told me to contact him should any other issues develop and have not received a call back nor has he answered his phone. I have no choice but to remove autopay from my account until this has been rectified and Xfinity can provide me a guarantee that it will be fixed moving forward so that I do not need to contact them every month to have the discount applied, as I have had to do for the last 12 months.Customer Answer

No, as of today Comcast continues to be radio silent. Very unfortunate considering we were on a path to making things right. Since opening this complaint I was told my bill would be (just for internet) $115 per month. This includes all fees and taxes. This also lowers the bill from $125 to $115 since I am signed up for auto pay. ******, from the executive office gave me his number to contact him should this be an issue but he refuses to answer his calls or return mine. The fact that this has been going on for multiple billing cycles with no acknowledged from Comcast goes to show that Comcast is still pulling a bait and switch with their pricing. I have tried multiple times to get ahold of them and get this fixed with no communication returned. For two months, since the initial complaint I have been over billed. I would like to cancel my Comcast services and be refunded for e wetting to date, but now they will charge me an early termination fee. Even though they are guilty of increased billing. I just want what was promised to me or for Comcast to be held accountable. This has gone on way too long now.

Case Number:22062225 - Rebuttal
Date of Notice:September 23, 2024
Dear Sir/Madam:
This ****** is in response to the above-referenced rebuttal submitted to the Better Business Bureau by **** *******.
On September 23, 2024, I spoke with Mr. ******* and confirmed he is currently subscribed to a 12-month agreement for the Gigabit Extra Internet package. Additional services and modem are not included in the package price. This package was effective August 2, 2024, and will expire on August 12, 2025, at which time retail rates will apply. This package also includes a 12-month term agreement, effective August 2, 2024, through August 2, 2025. Should Mr. ******* disconnect his services prior to the expiration date, an early termination fee will be applied. During my conversation with Mr. ******** he indicated he did not want to cancel the service at that time. This package was consented to via text message on August 2, 2024. Mr. ******* is also receiving the ************** option for an additional monthly cost. Therefore, there is no additional cost to exceed the 1.2 terabyte data usage threshold.
The account also receives a monthly self-service discount with enrollment in both automatic payments and paperless billing. This further reduces the promotional rate. Should either self-service option be removed, the discount will no longer apply. Mr. ******* is paying through his bank account, which was approved by him on August 2, 2024. I advised Mr. ******* he may manage the payment methods at ************************** to remove unwanted payment methods that were previously saved. There is no record that any payment method was saved without his permission. Please be advised the billing on this account is accurate. I apologized for any inconvenience that may have been caused while attempting to resolve this matter.
I trust this ****** provides your office with information required for resolution in this matter. Should you have any questions or need additional information, please contact me at **************.
Sincerely,
****** *.

Hello,My name is *********************** and my Xfinity mobile account is **********. I transferred my phone numbers to Xfinity Mobile on July 10 and I paid $40.30 upfront. I used the Xfinity service for 1 night and I was not getting any service inside the home the phones that I got from Xfinity were coming hot which was risky so I transferred back my numbers to another carrier the next day and returned the phones. However, I got charged for $***** on July 17 and $***** on July 18. I called customer service and they told me that those charges are for the restocking fees. I told them that the phones were coming hot on my and my wife's hand so they were not working properly. They said that they cannot help me with that. Now I see another charge which is due on August 3 for $59.74 which is unacceptable. if I do not get service inside the home and if the phones are defectives that is not my fault. so far I paid $40.30 + $***** +***** = $70 and I need my refund back. Also, there should not be $59.74 charges, Xfintiy can charge me for 1 day service that I used.Business Response

On July 10, 2024, the mobile account was disconnected per ******************** request due to the connectivity issues experienced at the service address.

Regarding the restocking fee and upfront taxes for the ******** G stylus devices, on July 10, 2024, **************** processed two return orders for the ******** G stylus devices, which were graded B-stock on July 16, 2024, and July 17, 2024.
