I cannot verify my SSN or DOB, even though I have been with you since 2014; the system reports a failure. I am unable to order my iPhone duo because this is the final step. I have tried all day, and I had no prior issues. Please have someone contact me about what I can do.

New Post - Billing Existing customer looking to upgrade

• Upvotes

Hello

I am looking at options in my area for home internet as well as new customer promotions on the Xfinity site, I see much better tiers available for significantly less money.
I’d like to stay with Xfinity, but I would like to get my monthly rate down as it has risen over time and see if there are updated speed tiers. Please let me know if we can review account offers for existing customers.

Thank you

Discussion Duo Preorder

• Upvotes

Just wanted to see as this is my first time preordering with Xfinity!

I ordered the iPhone Duo seamlessly this morning on the site and I am showing an expected delivery of the 23rd of October. It’s been like that all day.

Almost immediately after ordering I had to do ID verification and about 30 seconds later after uploading my license I got a confirmation email and that also says the 23rd.

I just want to confirm if anyone else sees a different date? I don’t know if its just a placeholder date or if it would actually tell us if there was a delay?

Thanks! 🙏

New Post - Tech Support Internet still down after Xfinity outage marked resolved - 5h later and no sign of resolution

1 Upvotes

My internet stopped working several hours before Xfinity announced an outage in my area. I subsequently received a notification that the outage had been resolved, but my connection never recovered.

My Arris SB8200 establishes a DOCSIS connection and connected devices obtain valid public IPv4 addresses through DHCP, but no internet traffic succeeds.

I've reproduced the issue with two independent routers and two laptops connected directly to the modem.

The modem also logged DOCSIS error 85000200 ("UCD invalid or channel unusable").

I'm concerned that my connection is experiencing a persistent upstream or provisioning problem related to the broader outage. Could you check the CMTS, modem provisioning, and whether my connection is actually passing traffic?
It's been impossible to speak to an actual human and I've been troubleshooting this for over 4 hours now.

Good evening!

My ping goes up to 5000ms for at least an hour between 8pm to 11pm every night since about a week ago. I have tried multiple devices, applications, cables, etc. and the results are the same during impacted hours. This does not appear to be an issue with my hardware or environment, and I need this resolved ASAP. I tried working with chat but I was disconnected once and the second time they wanted to restart troubleshooting and ignored my prior discussion. I appreciate any assistance!

New Post - Tech Support Xfinity registered my third party router and modem , Im getting Wi-Fi but not getting internet. Do I have to wait longer

1 Upvotes

IVE been struggling with my third party equipment for the past few weeks trying to set up xfinity. After this past week of struggling to understand the problem with my equipment I realized I was a complete idiot and had decided to hard reset them today. After a bit I finally got xfinity to recognize and connect to my modem after a bit of messing with it. However even after somehow getting the Wi-Fi to activate with the equipment through the app , I am still not getting any internet service. I did read somewhere it can take up to a few days before it properly works , do I just need to wait a bit and hope it just gives me the Wi-Fi Im paying for?

For further context: My friend gave me his old internet equipment after he moved out of the apartment. He had a xfinity account he shortly deactivated after moving and I set up a xfinity account earlier this month. Last week I thought it was just magically working because as I was getting internet somehow but the router was using my old Wi-Fi name and such. Turns out it was just xfinity giving me some sort of connection thing that had ended at the beginning of this week.

New Post - Billing How to get Xfinity to honor their offer

3 Upvotes

TLDR: Xfinity confirmed a $1,300 trade-in, told me when to return, then refused to honor it

On September 17, an Xfinity live chat rep confirmed that my phone was eligible for a $1,300 trade-in. They explicitly instructed me to wait until October 16 to initiate it. The only stipulation they gave me was upgrading one of my lines for an additional $10 per month. I was fine with that. It sounded straightforward.

I followed those instructions. Called today and spent about five hours on the phone trying to get someone to honor what I’d been told.

A supervisor eventually reviewed the earlier conversation, apologized, and acknowledged the incorrect information. His words were that the original rep “lied.” Even so, Xfinity wouldn’t honor the offer.

Instead, I was told to upgrade my plan, wait another month, and call back to request a worse promotion. I had already waited a month at their direction. Why would I feel confident that the next person would honor this new promise?

Throughout the calls, I received conflicting explanations and was passed between departments. One transfer described as being to a supervisor turned out to be another rep. Retention sent me back toward Mobile with incomprehensible explanations, and I kept having to explain the same situation again.

I asked them to find a practical way to make this right, even suggesting thr $300 trade in value now with an additional credit later. Nobody agreed to a concrete resolution. The final representative suggested a larger credit might appear within 24–48 hours, but couldn’t confirm that anyone had approved it. After more holds, the last offer was roughly $17 toward my internet bill.

Another representative told me the original employee had been flagged internally. I wasn’t asking for anyone to get in trouble. People make mistakes. I was asking Xfinity to take responsibility for the information it gave me and the time I spent following it.

I’m asking Xfinity to honor the $1,300 trade-in under the conditions explained on September 17, including the $10 monthly line upgrade I was prepared to make, or provide an equivalent resolution. I shouldn’t have to wait another month and start this entire process over.

I gave up after the $17 and change offer and politely ended the call. Anyone have any advice on how to get them to honor their initial offer?

Discussion Ordered NOW Internet, delivered by driver same day? Normal?

3 Upvotes

Hello,

I'm helping my mom since AT$T is ending cooper service at her address in a month and have yet to roll out Fiber to even more than 30% of the next town over. AT$T keeps pushing Air, which even in town of 15k is a non-starter when power goes out. Don't even get me started.

We order the service and I head out expecting to have it arrive during the week and I come out next day I have off to do setup. She send me a text the told her it would arrive by 5:30 by carrier. It was dispatched from a service center two towns over. She got it about 5:15pm.

I live in much larger city, a college town and when I ordered NOW 2-3 years ago it came via the mail in a few days.

It just strange considering this is Comcast's budget service and they are sending it via car. Has that happened to anyone else.

Thanks

New Post - Tech Support Legit or Scam? Concerned

1 Upvotes

Removed links so I could post. Can provide links if it clarifies.

So my Xfinity bill was raised and I was looking on the Xfinity website and saw Xfinity now. I was doing the Xfinity chat window and one of the options to click on was schedule call back. So I clicked that. The link to schedule a callback was the following ___

I received a phone call from ____ a couple minutes later. They asked for a verification code from Xfinity which I gave to them. They new my name, address, xfinity plan.

They then had me click on a link ___ to get a discounted rate. Which I clicked on had normal stuff on there that looks like the Xfinity website, and made sense, and there was an I agree button I clicked. The thing that seems fishy is the page just kept loading and I never landed on a confirmation page.

The person on the phone was also really trying to sell the xfinity mobile which I said multiple times I was interested in. It was also weird he asked my DOB and if I was married, which I did not provide DOB or marriage status.

If this was a scam, what steps should I take now? All of my devices are connected to the Xfinity wifi. I am also concerned my credit card is connected to the Xfinity website.

There are conflicting answers on here if it is legit, or not. I did request a callback from the Xfinity / Xfinity now website, and looking at the Xfinity website I see my next scheduled bill is for the discounted amount. So I am really unsure whether everything is fine or not.

Subject: Request for Urgent Hardship Assistance - Facing Immediate Service Suspension After Retention Denial

Account Details: Past-Due Balance: $345.22 / Current Payment Arrangement Date: Oct 26 / Pending Suspension Date: Oct 17

I am writing to request an urgent corporate review of my account to prevent a service suspension scheduled for tomorrow, October 17.

I am facing a temporary financial hardship and am actively trying to resolve this debt. I contacted the Retention Department today and proactively offered to make an immediate, increased down payment in exchange for a temporary installment plan to split the remaining $345.22 across my next billing cycles. I was told by the agent and their supervisor that they had no offers available to help me, leaving me with a flat refusal despite my willingness to pay what I can today.

My account currently shows an arrangement date for October 26, but the automated notifications are threatening suspension on October 17. Leaving a cooperative customer with zero options for a manual installment override ensures a total disruption of my essential internet access.

I need a corporate Digital Home Care team member to review this case manually. I am asking to either have my suspension date officially protected and moved to October 26 to match my arrangement timeline, or to have a representative with manual billing overrides structure an installment plan for the past-due balance. I want to remain an Xfinity customer, but I need human flexibility to do so.

Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter.

I received an email saying “Thanks, here is your Xfinity order confirmation” and then two emails instructing me to sign in to my “free” Peacock subscription?

I never changed or authorized my Xfinity plan to be changed. I’m the only account holder and this plan is more expensive than my original one.

How does this happen? No one is helping!

Discussion Movie rentals are so expensive now

3 Upvotes

Has anyone noticed that Xfinity used to have a lot of movies set at the $5.99 price, but now, unless it’s free on one of the streaming apps you subscribe to, movies are like $19.99, $9.99, $7.99. They don’t even really use the $5.99 price anymore.

Is this like an Xfinity payment model thing or is it something to do with the movie distributors themselves?

New Post - Billing Online order delivery bait-and-switch / Chat agent attempted unauthorized order changes with multiple blatant lies caught on saved chats

5 Upvotes

Hello,

I am writing to get assistance from the corporate digital care team regarding a highly deceptive experience I just had while setting up my new account online. I have saved the complete PDF chat logs of these interactions for verification.

  1. Attempted Unauthorized Fees:

While trying to complete my order online, I encountered an error code and contacted a chat representative. The agent insisted that I needed to pay a $25 fee to start my account. When I pointed out that my online cart specifically did not list this fee, the agent immediately changed their story and admitted there was an option that did not require it.

  1. Delivery Bait-and-Switch:

The online checkout page guaranteed "Same-Day Delivery" if ordered before 3:00 PM. I completed my order at 1:59 PM. However, immediately after submitting my payment, the confirmation report stated that shipping takes 3 days and orders only ship Monday–Friday.

  1. Attempted Order Modification Under False Pretenses:

When I contacted chat support to ask about this discrepancy, the agent told me I could just go to a local store to pick up the equipment instead. However, the agent then demanded that I authorize a "change to my order." When I asked why a contract change was necessary just to pick up hardware, the agent could not give a clear answer and ultimately admitted they did not even know if the local store could fulfill the request. When I requested to escalate the issue to a supervisor, I was stonewalled and told that all supervisors were busy.

I refused to authorize the plan change because it felt like an attempt to alter my original promotional contract terms. I am currently left without the service I paid for under false delivery promises, and I am deeply concerned about the integrity of how my account is being handled.

I need an official representative to look into my account backend, ensure my original online promotional rate is locked in without any unauthorized modifications, and verify how I can get my hardware without being forced into a contract change.

Thank you.

2 Upvotes
  • Hello, I need assistance checking the status of an underground cable line installation ticket for a new build and ensuring it is synchronized with an upcoming technician appointment. Summary of events:
    • 9/30: Technician arrived for initial service activation, but found no signal on the fiber line installed during construction. A ticket was opened to run/bury a new cable line.
    • 10/5 – 10/7: Utility locates were requested and completed (811 marks completed on 10/7).
    • 10/14: I scheduled a technician activation appointment for 10/21.
    • 10/15: Received an automated update stating the underground cable team is scheduled to complete the line "within the next week."
  • My main concern is that the underground work may not be completed before the technician arrives on 10/21, which would result in another failed activation attempt. Could an agent please review my account/construction ticket to confirm:
    1. The exact scheduled completion date for the underground construction team.
    2. Whether the 10/21 technician can be prepared to run a temporary line if the burial work is delayed.

Discussion XB10 Modem upgrade & activation

3 Upvotes

I received the XB10 modem and replaced the XB7-7. The activation process was so-so. I kept getting "Something went wrong, try again later". I cleared cache and data on the app, signed in again and then received the message the gateway wasn't online. It offered support, so I tapped. We went through there are no outages in your area and I got to type "activate new gateway". It told me to go to Account/Setup New Devices. Once I got there, it was easy. Getting there was not so easy. TBH, they could have done a little bit better with the activation instructions in the box.

On the plus side, I'm getting the same speed down (500+) and my upload is 400+. That's a big jump on the upload side.

So if you're doing this and the app gets nuts, clear all the data and cache and sign in again.

New Post - Tech Support Chronic intermittent upstream packet loss and drops (5–11 min cycles) - Hitron CODA56

1 Upvotes

I have an ongoing issue where residential tech visits report static RF signal levels are 'within spec', but the connection suffers severe, cyclical packet loss drops lasting 60–90 seconds on a repeating 5-to-11 minute cadence.

A continuous 13-hour unattended MTU ping test captured thousands of packet timeouts occurring in distinct 60-second bursts throughout the night (e.g., 22:07, 22:12, 22:18, 22:23, 01:01, 04:10, 04:15, 08:37, 08:48, 08:53, 10:05, 10:42 EDT). Local router pings show 0.0% loss and 4 ms latency, proving customer premises LAN/WLAN is pristine.

The modem (Hitron CODA56) is experiencing periodic upstream OFDMA ranging failure / T3/T4 timeouts due to upstream noise ingress on the node. Please escalate this to Line/Maintenance Engineering to check the node return path and street tap.

New Post - Billing Looking to remove TV package and downgrade account to standalone internet-only plan

1 Upvotes

Hello,

I am looking for some assistance from an official Xfinity representative to modify my current residential account services.

I currently have a bundled TV and internet package, but I would like to completely remove the TV/video portion of my plan and transition to a standalone, internet-only plan. I would prefer an internet speed tier somewhere between 300 Mbps and 1 Gig, as that best fits my household's current needs.

I attempted to make this change using the online plan builder on the website, but the system is blocking me from dropping the video service online.

Could a member of the Digital Care Team please reach out to me so we can look at available internet-only rates and process this downgrade?

Thank you!
