On 9/19/22 I visited the mentioned Xfinity store to purchase the IPhone 14 pro. The female employee opened the wrong phone. I spent over 2 hours waiting while she called corporate to cancel the order. She said I received a shipping label and I was responsible for returning a phone I never wanted and I never touched. The manager then said to forward the shipping label and that he would return it. It has been over 2 months and I have been getting charged for that phone that apparently was lost. I have spend many hours on the phone and visited the store in various occasions trying to resolve this. When I call they all send me back to the Xfinity store who cannot help me. And when I go to the store they tell me to reach out for the manager that only tell me to continue to wait. I am now paying for two iPhones; the phone that was opened by mistake who was lost by the employees and for the correct phone I obtained by calling Xfinity my self. I should not be responsible for the employees mistake and be charged for a phone I never had. Please help.Business Response

Enclosed is a summary of my attempt to purchase a new phone. The simple summary is I bought a new phone. Xfinity could not activate it. After 22 hours of Xfinitys online activation attempts, I returned the phone the day after I had received it and submitted it for activation. Xfinity could not activate the new phone but would not allow me to return the phone and just keep my old one. I went back a week later, per the clerks instructions, and again it was STILL in activation. Again, they said I could not return the phone. So I did not have the new phone I bought nor my old phone because info was being transferred. Apparently no one knows how to activate or stop activation.
Thank you for reading. Below, for your reference, is the original complaint
Sincerely,
**************************
******************************************** style="font-size: 11px;"> ***************************************** style="font-size: 11px;"> Email: **************
Phone: ************
On November 14, 2022, I purchased a new phone from Xfinity Store; address ********************************************************** 94115. My old phone was an ** GD Thin Q. I purchased a ******* Galaxy. I have been an Xfinity customer for years.
The new Galaxy was shipped to me and arrived on Wednesday, Nov. 16. Per the enclosed instructions, I went online to activate it. I had no idea how to do this and depended on the Xfinity Website. I sat at my computer monitoring the activation in case I was emailed that the process was complete. Two hours later I finally called the Xfinity number. I was informed that the activation was in process. I went to bed, could not sleep, and got up several times to check the site. Now I had NO working phone. My old phone was apparently transferring info to the new phone.
At 4:30 the next morning I finally reached the technical department. They worked about 2 hours on activation, and consulted the Advanced Techs. They were not successful in the activation. Finally, I told them I wanted to return the phone and just reactivate my old phone. They told me that I would not be able to return my new phone or get my old phone activated for 7 - 10 days. Cant they turn off activation? I was livid and had NO phone.
On Thursday, Nov. 17, 2022, I went back to the store on ***************** to return the new phone and get my old phone reactivated. The Manager ***************************** tried to help me but said I could not return the phone while activating it would be up to 7 days. He told me the Galaxy was in the network but not in the system or something. I fumed. I had the new phone and the receipt but again was told they cannot accept returns. Finally, ***** checked with his manager and put the new sim card into my old phone to get it working. Finally, I had my old phone. Still, he said I could NOT RETURN the new phone for 7 days. ***************************** advised me to come back on Wednesday 23, 2022 to return the phone. That is the day before Thanksgiving, and I had no faith.
(11/23/22) I returned to Xfinity the day before Thanksgiving to return the Galaxy phone. Again, Xfinity said they could not do anything while in activation. The manager, *****************************, was nasty and said that they had to do this step by step and consult the Tech department. This was day SEVEN and still, I could not return the phone. They said they would work on the activation of the phone. After 45 minutes (and no bathroom in the store) I told Xfinity to never mind; I will just dispute the charge. This cannot be legal.
I went to ******* to purchase another phone and switch to a new service. While there, *************************** at Xfinity called me, and he told me to come back to the store so they could insert a sim card into the new Galaxy, and it would be usable. I asked if I could then return the phone. ***** was not sure. I no longer wanted to do business with Xfinity. At that time, I chose to continue my purchase of a ******* phone. I did not yet know that ******* could not import my phone number and info until my Xfinity phone was activated. Is this a conspiracy?
In summary, I purchased a phone, it did not work, so I tried to return it and get my money back. Simple. The activation is an internal process out of my control. So, if their policy is the phone must be activated before it can be returned, and they cannot activate it, the policy needs to be changed. That is poor customer service. Whenever I relate this story to anyone, they cannot believe it. I still cannot believe it! It sounds illegal but I will try again on Saturday Nov. 25, 2022
On 11/25/22, the Saturday after Thanksgiving, FCC contacted me and Xfinity. I had filed several complaints with several agencies (i.e., FCC, Better Business Bureau, ***** of ******** Affairs). *** from Xfinity, called me. I was so grateful to actually talk to a person who seemed to know how to correct this situation. *** said she would try to activate my old phone that Friday. She could not activate, so I will wait until Monday, per Amys instruction.
Meanwhile, ******* activated my new iPhone and I switched to *******.
My hope is that Xfinity will change its policy of no returns while phone is activating and learn how to turn off activation if it is stuck. Treat old customers (Ive been with them since ****) with respect and not disdain and rudeness.Business Response

Dear Sir/Madam:
This ****** is in response to the above-referenced complaint submitted to the Better Business Bureau by *********************** regarding Xfinity Mobile service.
Xfinity Mobile records confirm that on November 14, 2022, ************** purchased a ******* Galaxy A13 as a replacement device for her current line of service. ************** attempted to activate the new device on November 16, 2022. However, due to a processing error, a stuck order occurred preventing the activation of the new device. ********************** sincerely apologies for this error. On November 23, 2022, Xfinity Mobile received a request from ******* for the port of Ms. ****** telephone number, and the telephone number was promptly ported. On the same date, a return was initiated for the ******* Galaxy A13, but Ms. ****** did not receive the ***** return label.
On November 25, 2022, I spoke with ************** to advise her of the above information and sent a new return label. I advised ************** that it can take approximately **** days for the device be reviewed that it is in good condition. On November 26, 2022, ************** initiated a dispute with her financial institution for the original order amount, I explained to ************** when a dispute is initiated, the amount is recharged to the Xfinity Mobile account. Because ************** was returning the device, on November 28, 2022, a credit was applied to the account to offset the disputed amount. On November 25, 2022, the return order was cleared to try and reinitiate service on her previous device, and the refund for her order amount was refunded, minus a restocking fee. I advised ************** that her financial institution will align the disputed amount with the return, should she have any further questions, she has my contact information. On November 28, 2022, a credit was applied as a courtesy for 1 GB of data usage to the November 19, 2022, bill cycle. On December 2, 2022, Ms. ****** device was received by the warehouse. On December 7, 2022, a credit as a courtesy to remove the remaining cost of the service cost to the November 19, 2022, bill cycle. On December 8, 2022, a credit was applied as a courtesy for delayed resolution to the December 19, 2022, bill cycle. On December 12, 2022, Ms. ****** device was successfully graded in like new condition.
Should you have any questions or need additional information, please contact me at **************.

I receive Bally Sports ******* ( through Comcast cable channel 39) and Bally Sports Sun ( through Comcast cable channel 38) ever since ******** Broadcasting purchased the networks around March 2021 from Fox Sports ******* and Fox Sports Sun and carried under their Bally Sports name. There have been numerous problems with these two channels over that time after ***** was doing the broadcasting. I will skip all prior problems I had only to say there used to be some local Bally contact people to send e-mails to with my issues and to help resolve. Those contacts no longer exist with Baly Sports.

I called this # and to no avail- person says this is a main # and not related to Bally Sports. She had no other phone # or e-mail to contact Bally Sports with my issues. The local phone # ************ for Bally Sports in ***************, ** is constantly a busy signal and no e-mail or chat listed. It seems Bally Sports does not want to be reached anymore and have no concerns for customers with technical issues on receiving the Bally Sports programming.My most recent issue is that both of my Bally Sports' channels have a picture (video) but no sound (audio) since Monday 11-28-22. I have no such problems on my many other Comcast channels I receive so it obviously is with the two Bally channels signals only. The problem with audio persists today. Had same audio problem 09-29-22 until 10-03-22. Not sure who resolved previously. In past technicians from Bally worked with Comcast technicians to resolve these Bally technical issues and I corresponded with a local Director of Media Relations (*********************** ) at ************** , ** site but he has been gone since December 2021.

I m having issues with xfinity home security and the internet. They were charging me $59 for the internet and without telling me they are now charging me $75. When I asked them they said well this is the new rate. It is a huge jump but I had to suck it up. In September I needed home security service because of serious safety concerns and after a number of discussions and calls back ans forth they confirmed with me that they will waive the installation fees, services and activation fees because I m a regular customer and a valued customer. They told me my bill for the month including taxes, fees, internet, home security and all the leased equipment will be $113.20. Today i got a bill of $201.80. I connected with them on chat and no one knew what I was asking them I finally waited for 2 hours to speak someone over the phone and the person in the home security department was not only extremely rude and unprofessional but when I told them I will be taking you guys to court for fraudulent practices he said I dont give a **** what you do or where you go. I am now also worried about my safety that this individual who is extremely aggressive knows where I live what is home address and my ssn and probably monitoring me as well. I need them to adjust the bill according to what they told me at 113 per month a formal apology and that person terminated from that position.Business Response

I was given a promotion to switch my cell phone provider to Xfinity mobile I would receive $500. 00 incentive upon doing so. Once I transferred my phone service . I requested all my information to be marked as private. The company released my private information immediately to the public. Not my landline that is also through Xfinity. I have had the same mobile number for 20 years .To suddenly be release upon obtaining there services for less then 2 months. Xfinity mobile then told me I was unable to receive the $500. Incentive until 6 months after the service was provided. Xfinity did not mark my information as private & released my cellphone number ,house address & picture, with my age. I am in court currently do to having been stalked. I call several time explaining the situation & they still refuse to remove my information off ****** & mark my information private. After 9 months of service they now also have failed to follow through with the $500. Promotion. Which would usually be considered as false advertisement. In which I'm finding they do a lot. When I call & inquire about any of these questions they transfer & disconnect me. They also try & tax extra fees on to government programs .Business Response

Dear Sir or Madam:
This letter is in response to the above-referenced complaint submitted to the Better Business Bureau by *************************, an authorized user for *********************** regarding ********************** service.
I made several attempts to contact ************** via telephone and email. Although I was unable to reach *************, a review was completed on the account. Our records indicate Xfinity Mobile service started in the Xfinity store on May 5, 2022, with one ******** moto g pure, device id ending **** with the unlimited data option, under a ******** moto g pure On ** promotion that ran from April 27, 2022 through May 9, 2022. The promotion details as: Xfinity Mobile customers can qualify for a ******** moto g pure On ** when adding to a new line of service with a Device Payment Plan (DPP) and intent to port. After porting an existing number from another carrier, the promotion, equal to the full retail value of $149.99, will be delivered to the customer in the form of a monthly bill credit spread over 24 months. On May 5, 2022, the phone number ending **** was transferred from Metro PCS to Xfinity Mobile and was activated the same date to the ******** moto g pure, device id ending ****.
********************** participates in paperless billing. Xfinity Mobile sends an email notification to the customer supplied email address at the end of the billing cycle with the details and the date of the next scheduled draft. Xfinity Mobile auto drafts twenty days after the end of the billing cycle. Xfinity Mobile only participates in automatic payments from an active debit or credit card.
Xfinity Mobile records show the last successful automatic payment was received on August 25, 2022 for the billing cycle ending August 5, 2022. Xfinity Mobile records show on September 9, 2022, the services were cancelled on the ******** moto g pure, device id ending **** for the billing cycle ending October 5, 2022. On October 10, 2022,the account was cancelled for non-payment with an outstanding past due service balance. On October 10, 2022, the device payment plan balance was accelerated for immediate payment. On November 10, 2022, the past due balance was sent to a third-party collection agency.
Upon receipt of this concern,Comcast Executive Customer Resolution specialist, ************** made multiple attempts to **************, an authorized user on the account. Unfortunately, she was not available when contacted. Regarding the billing, our records reflect all payments were received for each corresponding billing statement. On June 16, 2022, the service was disconnected with a final account balance. On July *******, a credit card payment was received, which left a zero balance.
After the account was closed,two additional payments were received from **************. On September 9, 2022 and on September 10, 2022, two payments were received. This resulted in a credit balance. On September 27, 2022, a refund was processed in the form of a refund check. Per **************** complaint, the refund check was received. A follow-up email was sent to ************** on December 6, 2022 should further assistance be required.

Sometime in 2018 I cancelled my cable portion of subscription with comcast/xfinity. Returned device within the same month. Was told I was no longer being charged for said device (cable box). Through the years I changed "packages" always confirming what I was paying g for and never did they mention the cable box and since I was told in the past I was not being charged I never asked specifically. After personal investigation it turns out I was being charged $8.50 per month up until 11/2022. Over $400 was wrongfully taken from my account for services not rendered and products returned. After calling I was denied a return of the money wrongfully taken.Business Response

Date of Notice: November 28, 2022
Dear Sir/Madam:
This letter is in response to the above-referenced complaint submitted to the Better Business Bureau by ***************************** regarding Xfinity service.
Our records indicate the equipment was not returned. As a courtesy, customer service removed the equipment from the account on November 25, 2022. The monthly fee was also removed from the account. In accordance with our terms and conditions customers have 120 days to dispute their bill. On November 25, 2022, customer service issued a credit for seven months of the equipment rental fee. This adjustment will reflect on ****************'s December 10, 2022, bill statement.
On November 30, 2022, I spoke with *************** regarding the above information. I confirmed that no further credits will be applied to the account. I apologized for any inconvenience that may have been caused while attempting to resolve this matter.
I trust this letter provides your office with the information required in this matter. Should you have any questions or need additional information, please contact me at ************, Monday-Friday,8:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m.
Sincerely,
Vanessa F*********

Closed the business due to my husband's death and wasn't progressing so decided to close the business. Called Comcast on 11/25/2022 to have the phone number and internet disconnected and they informed me I was in a contact until July of 2023 which I had no idea of and would be charged an early disconnect fee of ****** plus my monthly payment of ****** which they said wouldn't be shut off until December 25,2022.I tried to explain the situation to Armani that the business had no income coming in to pay them but she wouldn't hear of it and said I was responsible. I depended on my husband to keep the business going but after he passed I had no one that knew the business to do the jobs. I feel that I'm not being treated fairly due to my current situations of having to close the business and they should understand the circumstances and close the account owing them nothing.Business Response

Dear Sir/Madam:
This ****** is in response to the above-referenced complaint submitted to the Better Business Bureau by ************************* regarding Comcast Business service.
Comcast Business outlines Early Termination Fee (ETF) and a 30-day notice to disconnect service in Article 1 regarding Definitions of early disconnection fee and Article 5.1 regarding the 30-day notice required when disconnecting services, can be found in the Terms and Conditions (https://business.comcast.com/terms-conditions-smb) and on page 5 of the service order agreement.
Our records show ****************** subscribes to Comcast Business Ultimate Business Package for discounted monthly rate starting on July 2, 2021, for months ****, increasing to year 2 promotional rates on July 2, 2022, for months *****, increasing to then regular rate on July 2, 2023. Package includes Business Internet 100/15 Mbps, 1 Mobility Voice Line and SecurityEdge. 2-year term agreement required, additional service, taxes and fees extra.
On December 20, 2022, I communicated with ****************** via email and advised Comcast will approve a business waiver to avoid charging an ETF on this account as a courtesy. Comcast will also waive the 30-day notice to disconnect service by backdating the account charges to November 25, 2022. On December 20, 2022, ****************** completed a Voluntary Disconnection Request (VDR) authorizing the disconnection of all services. On December 20, 2022, Comcast completed the disconnection of all services with a billing stop date of November 25, 2022, as requested. The billing statement dated December 21, 2022, reflects a prorated credit for services removed, leaving a valid balance for service provided through November 25, 2022. On December 21, 2022, I emailed the information above to ****************** and confirmed this has resolved her concerns. I apologized for any inconvenience experienced 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 **************.
Sincerely,

On September 17 , 2022 I purchased a cellular phone through XFINITY mobile. The phone worked for **** days then experienced hardware issues. XFINITY suggested going to the Apple store as there was nothing they could do. Apple replaced the phone, but my account was locked, not the phone itself. Xfinity shut my phone number off (20 years active) and gave me a different phone # without notifying me. I spent over 30 hours online, in store, and on the phone with no resolution. I stated that I needed my phone# and XFINITY stated there was nothing they could do. They actually suggested I go to ******* wireless. I asked them to release my phone number so I could take my business elsewhere. I went across the street to ******* Wireless with confirmation and pin number provided by **********************. ******* Wireless stated that the # was still tied to XFINITY and could not access it. XFINITY continues to charge me for my old cell#, a new # that I do not want, a device that they "Loaned" me because my original purchase is in a locked state. There have been numerous calls between XFINITY and ******* and many promises of resolution with dates, times given as to when the issue would be resolved.Business Response
