I have been a customer of the company for several years my son was in *********** and needed the internet services to complete homework assignments etc the xfinity essentials program was a discount to low income families with school aged children so we took advantage advantage of the services thinking we were helping my son he wasn't able to get adequate internet service most of the time and when we'd contact the company they would try to troubleshoot and fix the issue but never did I could never use the streaming service for movies with my cable TV and couldn't access my laptop so that let us know our signal for WiFi was really weak and unable to be used for its full intent I made several more calls and finally requested for a tech to come out and check the equipment this was in March 2022 so they did the tech informed us that we needed a new WiFi tower and that there was too much energy flowing through our signal for us to receive the adequate usage of the service we received a bill shortly afterwards for over $500.00 when I tried contacting an agent about this ridiculous amount I had been billed when my service never properly worked and I had been paying $9.99 monthly for several years and there's no way my bill should be that expensive they would agree but everyone I would speak to would have something different to say than what the previous agent would say so I don't mind paying what I owe them for the sketchy services we did receive but this amount I'm being billed is blown way out of the neighborhood of what we owe I need Xfinity to do the right thing and lower that balance to what is actually owed and stop trying to overcharge me for services that I did not use nor had access to for months Thanks in advance and I'll be listening for your response to this matterBusiness Response

Dear Sir/Madam:
This ****** is in response to the above-referenced complaint submitted to your office by ******************************************** regarding Xfinity service.
I have made several attempts to contact ********************************* via telephone and email to discuss her concerns. Unfortunately, all my attempts were unsuccessful. Although I was unable to contact ********************************* a review of her account was completed. Comcast records reflect that the last completed service visit at ************************-***** residence was on January 29, 2022. The technician corrected the issue by replacing a splitter, connector, and drop cable. There are no records of ********************************* reporting service interruptions after the completed service visit.
On December 14, 2021, ********************************* accepted a 12-month promotion for Xfinity *************************** which does not include equipment, taxes, and fees in package price. Customer approval for the package was received via text message.
Additionally, the last payment that was processed to the account was on January 4, 2022, for services rendered from October 16, 2021 through December 14, 2021. On March 10, 2022, ************************-***** account ending in was interrupted for non-payment. The disconnection of the account was completed on April 9, 2022. On that same day, an early termination fee was applied to the account due to the disconnection being completed prior to the end of the 12-month agreement. On May 24, 2022, the unpaid balance was referred to a collection agency. On April 9, 2022 and August 12, 2022, the Comcast-leased equipment was returned and the unreturned equipment charge was removed from the account. In order to restore the services, a payment for the balance due is required. ********************************* was provided my direct contact number should she require additional assistance. I apologize for any inconvenience that *** have been caused while attempting to resolve this matter.
Please contact me directly should you have any additional questions or concerns.

Problem #1 Xfinity is artificially inflating my data. We have three lines and around the middle of the month one of the lines (random which one) shows a big data usage (around 5G or more). The line in question is not being used any differently than usual. (Judging by Forums posts this is a common problem.)Problem #2 After I asked Xfinity to unlock my phone so that I could transfer service, I suddenly got an offer for unlimited data for the same price that I was paying for 10 GB of data. I signed up for this and received a confirmation. However, my account still shows the 10 GB data available even though I am in a new cycle.Demands:I am asking that Xfinity remove fraudulent data overcharges ANDchange my account to the offer I selected, $30 per month for unlimited data, as I am no longer able to choose this option via the website or app.Business Response

I told Xfinity that I find suggestions that I should sign up to government assistance programs for poverty to be deeply traumatizing due to my past history. Despite my contacting customer service four times over several months, and being assured each time that the problem would be resolved, Comcast Xfinity has continued to send me harassing emails urging me to sign up to government assistance programs for internet service. Btw, I do not qualify for this program, so I am essentially being told to commit government fraud by Comcast. I now have no choice but to block all contact with them via email in order to avoid this harassment. I just want it to stop.Business Response

Re:***********************
**** ************
Middleburg, FL *****
Case Number: ********
Date of Notice: September 10, 2022
Dear Sir/Madam:
This letter is in response to the above-referenced complaint submitted to the Better Business Bureau by *********************** regarding Xfinity service.
On September 14, 2022, I corresponded with *************************** and confirmed that effective September 13, 2022, the account ending in **** was terminated for nonpayment. Since the account was disconnected, I was unable to further investigate to determine why **************** had been unable to access the account online. Once an account has been disconnected, customers are longer able to access or log in to the traditional Xfinity My Account app. They only have the option to access a limited version of their online account without signing in with their Xfinity ID and password to pay any remaining balance on the account.
Upon review of account number ending in ****, our records indicate that on June 26, 2022, **************** accepted a 12-month Installment Plan for her delinquent balance. A minimum payment was made toward the past-due balance on June 26, 2022, and the remaining unpaid balance was divided into twelve monthly installments. The monthly installment was expected to be paid each month for 12 months in addition to the regular monthly service charges. On July 4, 2022, a billing statement was issued that was due July 25, 2022. The balance due was comprised of the full monthly balance amount, a Late fee, account reactivation fee, plus the first payment installment. A payment was applied to the account on July 13, 2022, leaving an unpaid balance which was due by July 25, 2022. However, the remaining payment was never received.
Effective August 2, 2022, the account was removed from the installment plan due to **. ******* failure to maintain the Installment payment plan as agreed on June 26, 2022. Our records indicate that effective August 2, 2022, account number ending in **** was disconnected, and the services were transferred to the new account ending in **** at her new address. The Past due balance was transferred to the new account on August 2, 2022. On August 3, 2022, a billing statement was issued that was due by August 24, 2022. The balance was comprised of the past due amount, plus service charge for the August 2, 2022, through September 1, 2022, billing period, but the payment was never received
Our records show that on August 9, 2022, a request was submitted to transfer the Installment Plans onto the new account. On August 11, 2022, the request was denied because after she was initial enrolled on June 26, 2022, she failed to pay the full monthly balance due plus the installment amount as agreed. On August 28, 2022, a new billing statement was generated with a balance that was due by September 18, 2022. The new balance included the Delinquent amount, a late fee, and service charge for the September 2, 2022, through October 1, 2022, billing period.
A payment was applied to the account on September 7, 2022, leaving an unpaid balance. Effective September 13, 2022, the account was disconnected for nonpayment, a prorated credit was applied to the account on September 14, 2022, for the service charges from September 13, 2022, through October 1, 2022. This left a remaining account balance for service rendered to **************** from June 8, 2022, through September 12, 2022. The billing adjustment appeared on the September 14, 2022, billing statement. On September 15, 2022, an Early Termination Fee (ETF) was applied to the account plus associated taxes leaving the account with a final balance due. I apologized for any inconvenience that *** have been caused while attempting to resolve this matter.
I trust that this letter 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 **************
