      On 7/29/2024, I purchased an iPhone Pro Max 15 over the phone with a new line of service to go with my existing line and streaming account. I received the wrong phone and a defective phone, which has a volume button that doesn't work. I am unable to turn the volume up, make a screenshot, and hard reset the phone.I spent over one hour in chat and verbal conversations with Apple to troubleshoot the problem.Now, on today, I'm in possession of a defective device that is also not the color I ordered. I placed an order for device accessories to arrive tomorrow. Currently, the phone has no coverings, and it does not work.

      Comcast/Xfinity billing is confusing to say the least. Account number ********************************************** bill due as of 8/1/2024. They bill a month in advance. Yesterday, I cancelled that plan which should erase the $206 normal charges. I am making a payment of $93.37 tomorrow, which I am not challenging. There may be a residual balance of under $25, but they are telling me that I will owe $152 and change after tommorow's payment, and this is part of the amount I am challenging. I have paid $250 on 7/4/2024 and with tomorrow's payment, that is $343 in one month!!!! On my last complaint to the BBB, they also told me they would credit the $100 tech visit on 3/24/2024 which I was told several times by the tech that actually came to my house that I WOULD NOT BE CHARGED, so this $100 credit did not drop off. I was also told twice by two different chat discussions subsequent to that date that it would be removed/refunded but apparently they lied. Typical of Comcast, Xfinity, that is precisely why I am dropping all but the bare essential of services. So the total amount that I should be credited would be $252 and change.

      The July 5, 2024 billing statement generated and showed a previous balance, a payment made on July 4, 2024, a past due balance, and new charges due on August 4, 2024.

      On June 20, 2024, Ms. *** placed an order for an Apple Watch.

      Today I got a notification from a the credit bureau that stated that I was in collections for $126.00 from Xfinity. I dont understand how and why. I never got a notification from Xfinity I had a watch on auto-pay what could be the issue. I tried to talk to Xfinity on chat but no one could give me an answer.Spoke with Credence Resource Manage, they stated that it was an iphone that had to be rectified by the better business bureau. I called Xfinity they stated that it was over a phone then they said it was a watch. Im confused that watch was on auto-pay for over a year. I was never notified by mail or email wait! Im sorry I got an email in May stating that I owe $13.47 I didnt think anything of it because the watch was on Auto Pay. I logged in and it stated that I owe $18again my payments were on auto-pay I never called to stop the Auto pay because you could never speak to anyone so I let every payment go through until the watch was paid for. Ive been making payments for a long time why would I stop now?My credit score is down 33 points behind this. Ive been a customer with ********************** 5 years how can something like this happen when I was supposed to be on auto-pay. This is totally unfair and unacceptable someone in Xfinity messed up and now I am paying for it with my credit score.

      Customer Answer

      Date: 08/02/2024

      Someone called from the public relations department from Xfinity. I dont know why he called because he offered no solution to the issue. I explained that I was on auto-pay for I phone and my Apple Watch. I asked him to review the recordings I never ask Xfinity to take my phone off of Auto-pay he stated that they cannot go back that far.

      I asked what did you call for? He said to explain that we did nothing wrong what?? I had no missed payments how can we rectify this? This is my second encounter with this guy and he should not be in customer relations because his attitude is passive aggressive with no resolution. He acknowledges that Ive been a customer for years and thanked me for my business but because he cant explain why I was taken off auto-pay its just automatically my fault. How is this right? How is this my fault? Why wasnt a resolution suggested? Again, this is my second time dealing with this guy and he always calls after business hours and because I contacted the BBB he automatically come with the attitude of how dare you complain to the BBB when we did nothing wrong. The situation was not resolved he only called to satisfy the complaint.

Despite numerous attempts to resolve the problem through Comcast customer service, I have been met with constant delays and lack of progress.The last time I was able to speak with a helpful representative was with ******* at extension x3013771 and ********** at **************. Unfortunately, subsequent attempts to contact them have been unsuccessful. I have left multiple voicemail messages without receiving a response.When contacting Comcast through the main 1-888-XFINITY number, I have been redirected to sales departments rather than receiving assistance with my existing issue.

      Case Number:               22079953
      Date of Notice:             August 2, 2024

      Dear Sir/Madam: 

      This ****** is in response to the above-referenced complaint submitted to the Better Business Bureau by ***************** regarding Xfinity and Xfinity Mobile service. 

      I made several attempts to contact ************ to discuss any potential mobile concerns he may have had, and I was unsuccessful.Although, I was unable to speak with him, a review of the account was completed once more.

      Previously on May 28, 2024, I spoke with ************ and confirmed our records indicated that on September 14, 2023, he accepted mobile service and placed 2 orders for 2 lines of service that included a Bring Your Own device line for a used Apple iPhone 14 Pro Max and a newly purchased ******** *********** device associated with device ID ending in 4894. Do, too, intent to activate the Bring Your Own device line as an electronic SIM card on the iPhone 14 Pro Max device, a SIM card was not required to be shipped. However, the ******** device was shipped on the same day the order was placed, and it was delivered and signed for on September 16,2023.

      As intended, per the Xfinity Mobile customer agreement, ************ began to generate monthly charges from September 18, 2023,through May 18, 2024, for a 1 GB data plan, a device payment and monthly taxes.Each payment for each billing statement was processed automatically 20 days after each statement ended from the payment card on file. On September *******, ************ contacted our care teams and requested to cancel service. Due to a pending order at that time, only the line associated with the ******** device was cancelled, ending in 9177. On the same day, it was determined that the pending order for the Bring Your Own device line would be completed within 7-10 days, in which ************ would be required to contact Xfinity Mobile once more to cancel the line.

      Although, **************** account does not confirm he requested to return the ******** device. The account also does not confirm *********** contacted Xfinity Mobile thereafter to cancel the remaining line until March 18, 2024, and the line was then cancelled successfully. Because a device payment plan remained active at that time and currently for the ******** device because it had not been returned within the time allowed, ************ continues to be charged appropriately for only a device payment on the April 18, 2024, May 18, 2024, June 18, 2024, and the currently open billing statement dated from July 18, 2024, through August 17, 2024. Once the remaining 13 device payments are paid in full, ************ will no longer be subjected to any further Xfinity Mobile charges.

      On several occasions a Xfinity representative attempted to contact ************ and was also unsuccessful. Although the Xfinity representative was unable to reach ************, it has been confirmed as of August 9, 2024, that the underground cable drop bury request remains pending at this time and Xfinity's partner is scheduled to have a visit with the city inspector within 2 weeks from August 9, 2024. The information disclosed was sent to *********** on August 12, 2024, via email by the representative.

      Both representatives apologize for any inconvenience this matter may have caused while attempting to resolve it.

      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 *********************************.

      Xfinity was negligent per PGE in moving equipment to new pole a few years ago. Their line was hanging into the street and was hit by a camper on 7/5/24 at 8 am. This caused Xfinity's dry-rotted pole in our backyard to bend and the line to damage our fence. I have tried several times to contact Xfinity. I have been given 5 case numbers, 3 or which were cancelled in 5 hours via a text stating the case was closed. I need assistance with Xfinity to repair the broken fence as a result of their line hanging below the 15.5 feet regulation per PGE and the fire department.

      The broken fence with Xfinity has not yet been rectified however I am currently waiting on the insurance adjuster which works with Xfinity-Comcast to send me the proceeds to pay the fence contractor.  I signed their agreement one hour ago.  

      Thank you for your assistance.

      My internet provider is selling a service that it has never once delivered on. My partner and I work from home, so being able to meet virtually is an integral part of our job description. The Xfinity service here, though, is too poor accomplish this standard utility. This certainly does not stop Xfinity from collecting full payment on a service that is operating at maybe 20% of its advertised efficacy. My unity is not the only one that has this issue, either. Every member of my building that I have spoken with has said their service is terrible, too. I would like a full reimbursement for my service that I have paid for since March and I would like the company to be forced to clearly inform any future customers what their actual service capabilities are before subscribing to their service.

      Date of Notice:August 2, 2024

      Dear Sir/Madam:

      This ****** is in response to the above-referenced complaint submitted to the Better Business Bureau by ********************* regarding XFINITY service.

      Upon receipt of the complaint the Network Maintenance team was notified of Mr. ******* ongoing intermittent service issue. On August 3, 2024, a trouble call was scheduled and completed, and the technician determined the presence of ingress. The technician reconfigured several lock boxes, replaced defective splitters and ran a new line from the ground block to the lockbox. Signal testing confirmed the location was meeting industry expectations. On August 13, 2204, I contacted **************** to confirm the signal was meeting expectations, however **************** is away from home and could not confirm. On August 19, 2024, a test of the signal indicated there is a remaining signal issue. The field has been notified and is investigating further. Based on that information a service visit to investigate the service concern would be indicated, however due to **************** being away from home I will have to wait for his return. Comcast remains committed to resolving the intermittent service issue.

      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 **************.

      The company worked on resolving the issue, but never offered a refund of any kind for the 6 months of poor service. Do utilities have no accountability to deliver the consumer? The consumer pays full price regardless of whether or not they actually get the service?

      Dear Sir/Madam:

      This ****** is in response to the rebuttal ****** submitted to the Better Business Bureau by **** ****** regarding Xfinity service.

      On September 3, 2024, a service visit was scheduled during which time the technician diagnosed and attempted to correct the service issue by reconfiguring the main splitter outside of Mr. Hortons building that was causing ingress. A technical operations supervisor left a voice mail message for Mr. ****** to follow up on the service call. 

      On September 4, 2024, Mr. ****** confirmed with me via email message that the issues with his Internet service were not resolved during the service call that was completed on September 3, 2024. A technical operations supervisor left Mr. ****** another voice mail message.

      On September 6, 2024, Mr. ****** confirmed with me that he received the voice mail messages from the technical operations supervisor but has not had time to call him back.

      On September 11, 2024, I sent Mr. ****** another email and he has not replied. Mr. ****** understands that we will discuss a credit for the issues that he experienced with his Internet service once the Internet service issue is fully resolved. 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 in this matter. Should you have any questions or need additional information, please contact me at **************.

      The business was responsive in trying to fix the problem with my internet. However, in the end the company fell far short of what they are advertising and has made no effort to refund me for the months when my service was not working.

      Xfinity advertises up to 1000mbps for their internet service and charges $65 per month for this plan. (a discounted price). 1000mpbs download speed is enough to meet the internet demands of my and my partner as remote workers, if that advertised speed is accurate. But since we have started our plan in March, we have had, at the very best, half of the service promised. Most months, before my initial BBB complaint, the internet was either not working at all, or only working at about 20% of its supposed capacity.

      While the consumer (me) was forced to find alternate work solutions, like going to workspaces like WeWork or the local library to find reliable internet, Xfinity continued to charge us full price, right on time, every month, as if they are under to obligation to meet the demands of their advertised prices. It is the equivalent of a grocer selling an apple core for the price of a whole apple. I suppose a utility does not feel obligated to deliver the full product to the consumer since it is not a physical good that can be inspected.

      I would like a full compensation of the months previous 5-6 months of service where my internet was not working. I'm sure that my neighbors would like a refund, too. Not a single person in my apartment complex gets a fraction of the product Xfinity is selling them.
