    I have been with Comcast for about 3 years now, but in the past year I have been given the runaround concerning the dependability of my internet service. About a month ago I requested a tech to come out and fix my sporadic connectivity. He then diagnosed that it was my ethernet that was the problem. I immediately took my computer in for an ethernet upgrade and general maintenance. $200 later, I am experiencing the same exact problem. The company at this time has charged me $70 for sending a service call that "wasn't Xfinity's fault".

    Two technicians later, as the final tech that I was interesting in dealing with tells me the same diagnosis, and leaves. Moments later my internet goes out, so I call the tech and ask what has happened. He says that he forgot to rewire in a rf filter into my personal cable, which he was doing at that moment. My internet works fine now after complaining one year and spending $270 dollars later. I swear that If I ever need another tech out for any reason that I will cancel my professional relationship with xfinity before I ever call anyone out. I have since contacted an agent about dropping the $70 charge for the mis-diagnosis charge, and have had no reply since. I am very displeased with this and am sorry that the only competitor in the area does not promise the speed of xfinity, but I would happily abandon Xfinity for something dependable at any speed.

    I begged for service for a full year. I never received internet service over 40MPS of internet speed. Supervisors would not call back. Techs would no longer show up making excuses that we were not home. Both my wife and I work from home, so that's a joke!. This was an endless cycle of broken promises. Now they are trying to collect an early termination fee and threatening to send me to collections because they could not provide the service I paid for! This review is just the beginning. I was warned about them when I moved here and have had nothing but horrible service! STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY AT ALL COSTS!

    I've had too many awful experiences with this company to capture them all and the only reason they are still in business is that they have Monopolies over fast internet in more areas then they should. You call to complain about some random fee they put on your bill on they try to upsell you and lock you into contracts. They add fees or higher them without informing you. They allow you to go over a maximum usage (you didn't know there was a maximum? Neither did we) without informing you and charge you hundreds of dollars until you notice your next bill.

    Even one past experience I had canceled and they charged for the NEXT month. When calling to get it back they informed me they were sending a check and all was well. No check arrived. I called again and they said my account was still open and no check was sent. They again canceled and said a check was on the way. No check came. I called AGAIN and did the same thing. Next thing I know, someone is calling me to pick up a Cable Box that I supposedly had... but I NEVER had cable in my house. They STILL have my money they took AFTER I canceled and refuse to give it back until some fictitious cable box is returned. Did I mention you don't get the speed you pay for? This company is a joke and they train their customer service representatives to gouge their customer and take as much as they can no matter what.

    I moved to Illinois some months ago and the apartments that I moved have contract with this bad wifi service (Xfinity). So there was no option for me to go for other wifi service and I had to go for this service even my interest was this Spectrum. It's very very bad service and I am telling this because they will ask you sign some plans (these plans have early termination fee). We don't know the timeframe for our job and this Xfinity people are looting based on that situation. This is basically some kind of looting similar to the landlord who ask you to pay lease break amount. So the landlord and wifi service got together & looting people on early termination fee. People don't sign this if you have better service in option.

    Our 2nd home to use Comcast just had a crazy increase of over $25 per month on our bill. Our primary home has been using Comcast for phone, internet, and television for over 25+ years. It is absolutely ridiculous to pay that much more a month for a home we are not even in that often/regularly. We asked about a discount, but they are only giving discounts for new customers. Which I understand, however this is a second account with them that I have - and after being a 25+ customer, it'd make sense as a business to cut a deal with you for multiple accounts.

    We also inquired about an internet access-only package for the 2nd house, as we are not always there. They said that package was only for "new customers only". I find it incredibly poor on their customer service end that they not only can't work out a multiple home deal for those with 2+ accounts, but also that they only offer these discounts and special packages for new customers only. What a complete mess. We otherwise enjoy Comcast at our primary residence, however will be switching to Fios or another provider that can provide us with basic internet for cheaper, which is really all that we need.

    Whenever I moved to Houston back in 2016 and after doing my research and asking people I was told that Xfinity is the best in the Houston area, so I decided to get the service and right after getting it I started with the supposedly fastest internet for around 70 dlls a month, after a few month of usage I didn't get any internet in the upstairs area, tech guys came to my house twice and they said my service was 100% good and working everywhere. I could have internet in my room or in any room. I was so disappointed and called the again. They told me I needed to increase my speed, I upgraded to 85 dlls and still the same.

    After calling to request to cancel my service one customer service rep told me she will sent me a router and told me to try it out at no cost, after one month my bill rise to 128 dlls for the SAME internet no change at all, I called to see what was happening and their response was "We can cancel at any time you request." Soo disappointed they won't want to make it right to me!! I'm currently looking to switch and will cancel their service this weekend, we get a lot of outages during the month and I need a company that is consistent, XFINITY is FAKE and their staff is not trained the same.

    Comcast is THE WORST. I pay for a Gig of internet and consistently has WAY lower. This morning I ran my internet speed and I was getting 41.2 Mbps upload and 22 download. 1000 Mbps = 1 Gig, so not even close. Their support always can only tell you to reset the modem.

    If fewer stars could be given, they would be. That said, thankfully there are no hoops to jump through to cancel the service. It is difficult to explain in writing what it does and an attempt will be made. When a single device is connected, it will transmit data for about 5 minutes, will stop, requires WiFi to be toggled on/off, it will transmit data again for 5 minutes and the cycle has continued constantly in the little over a month the service has been active. Good luck viewing email, good luck downloading an app, and don’t even think about updating the operating system on *any* device. Comcast said they would send a technician and with a 100% travel schedule for work, that is not possible.

    I will say, my first few years having Xfinity/Comcast were among the best. The customer service was exceptional, and it was always easy to speak to an agent that was more than willing and capable of assisting with any problem. That is no longer the case anymore. In ONE MONTH my bill has more than doubled, and not one single person at the company will help with my bill, fix anything, or offer a solution. They charge my credit card every month and I can't even view what I am paying for to show how magically I now owe TWICE the amount that I signed up for and agreed to just a few short months ago. I will spend the next few WEEKS of my time researching how to drop this company and get a different provider, everything about their service lately is completely unacceptable.

    A couple of days ago it appears Comcast had a huge internet outage that lasted a couple of hours.

It was so bad one could not even connect with comcast tech support due to technical difficulties. For some reason I lost internet again today, spent on the phone total of an hour "communicating" with a useless machine that was designed to work as a gatekeeper to prevent a customer in need to talk to live tech support. The info keeps repeating itself and when you get lucky to get to the point that "supposed" live agent will call, you get info that due to technical difficulties it can not be completed at this time.

    This business is a huge scam. They are filled with lies and hidden fees. First off, when I was purchasing internet, they tried to hook me with an internet/TV combo bundle for a low price. When I went to sign up for this, all of a sudden my bill was double what they had advertised due to all their hidden fees. So I settled for just basic internet. I was getting their special of $40 a month. I used their internet for a few months when I received a call from their customer service. They wanted to include some TV channels for an extra $10 per month, I had 1 month to cancel it I didn't like it. So I agreed.

    First of all, the TV channels they included were terrible. It wouldn't have even been worth the $10. Second of all, it ended up being an extra $20 per month, not the $10 they had told me. So I called to go back to my original plan, like they had promised I could. But now to go back to my original plan, it would cost $70 a month instead of $40. For the same thing I just had before they conned me into adding to my plan. Do not fall for their scams like I did.

    We were coerced into buying Xfinity internet and cable from a salesperson in Walmart who said we were paying too much for our current service.

To make it worse, the internet is slow and the shows on cable SUCK!

    And now, a salesperson has been coming to our house, at least three times, and scaring my kids. He has a huge nondescript truck that doesn't say Xfinity on it and he parks in front of our house and blocks our driveway! I don't know what he wanted, but I wonder if he wants to pressure us into buying more! I can't afford to pay this company one penny more and I would like internet that runs at a decent speed and cable with movies that we want to watch. Is this too much to ask?!!!

    My husband and I have been trying to get Comcast to provide service to our neighborhood for 3+ years. They've quoted as high as $23,000 to bring the cable approximately 3/4 of a mile (where cable now exists). Verizon won't service our county, so Comcast is our only option. (I'm mad at Verizon, too. It's that this is the Comcast review.) Despite what they show in their ads, these companies have no concern for the communities they serve. Not to mention, on the practical front, that in these three years, Comcast would have more than made up the cost of bringing cable this short distance. It's not like there isn't a pay-off for them here.

    There just isn't anyone who can afford to pay $23,000 in one fell-swoop. Boo to you, Comcast. You will eventually come down our street, and we will have no choice but to sign up with you. But I feel better at least thinking that you've missed out on 3+ years of fees (and counting!) from us and at least 4 other households on our block.

    I had Xfinity for a while with no issues, but apparently they spotted a problem with my password that needed me to reset it. Fine, but instead of just letting me do that on my own like every other streaming service, I needed to be at home talking to a service rep to reset my entire account. I was on the road at the time, so my account was fully inaccessible the entire trip. The whole process felt outdated and tedious.

    When my boyfriend and I moved into our first condo we had an Xfinity tech come set up our cable and internet. After about 20 minutes he just left without saying anything, no updates on if service was successfully installed, didn’t have us sign anything, didn’t even say “bye.” Just got in his truck and drove away. Our internet/cable was working so we assumed the guy was just socially weird and assumed all was fine. Three days later I’m working from home and our internet goes out. I call Xfinity. They inform me no installation happened and the tech’s notes stated, “No answer at the door, couldn’t get into the house.” They didn’t believe me that we actually had equipment so I had to take pictures and send to them of our modem and cable box.

    After sitting on hold for an HOUR, I was informed they would need to have another tech come out and fix it... in 7 business days. I explained to them I had to work from home and this was unacceptable. This was their mistake and they needed to get it fixed in 24 hours. She said they would “try their best.” Three days later we finally got a tech out who said that they could have just turned our service back on remotely since we had all the equipment. I just about came unglued on this poor tech. Fast forward 3 months and we unfortunately have to do an emergency move. I call Xfinity Customer Service (who are, by now, my favorite people) and they tried to tell me in order to transfer my service I had to pay for a 150 dollar upgrade.

    After calling their bluff and getting routed to two different managers, I finally got them to state they can transfer my service without an upgrade. They check our new address and state it’s already wired so we just need to bring our equipment and hook it up. Phew! No more dealing with Xfinity... or so I thought. We move into our new place and guess what?! (I’m sure you guessed it.) Our new place is actually NOT wired for Xfinity. Here we go again... after another hour on hold I hear from the customer service agent, “We will have a tech out in 7 business days.” Are freaking kidding me?!

    I’m still needing internet to work from home. After another two managers I finally got them to agree to 3 days, again. When I requested our service get comped for the days we couldn’t use it, they refused because of circumstances “out of their control.” I told the agent stupidity and laziness is very much in their control. If I could give negative stars, I would. Worst company ever.

    Based on my experience, Xfinity is a company that can't be trusted. I recently repatriated from Asia, where everything related to technology is significantly more advanced. I work remotely sometimes and back up data to the cloud so UPLOAD speed is critically important for my use. I tried to perform due diligence on the different internet offerings and detailed specifications of each. The Xfinity website provides almost no information about upload speeds - only download speeds are advertised for each package.

    I contacted Xfinity support and asked for a breakdown of upload speeds for each package available in my area. She insisted on going through her standard "criteria walkthrough" with me but eventually caved and indulged me by asking what upload speed I needed. I told her no less than 25mbps and she proceeded to list the packages that had DOWNLOAD speeds greater than 25mbps. She never acknowledged that she was not addressing my question and instead started her hard sell - sending the link to me and pushing me to signup while on the line with her.

    I did some further due diligence after this call. Obscured within the Xfinity website is a link to their "Network Management" (www.xfinity.com/networkmanagement) page where they publish data necessary to comply with the FCC. I learned that Xfinity apportions their network capacity at about 95% download and 5% upload.

    Easiest way to explain this concept is to think of road that is 4 lanes across. Since the number of lanes is fixed, the the cable companies assign 3 lanes for download and 1 for upload. All cable internet providers do this, particularly because cable is 50 years old and was not designed for the amount of data traffic currently, but Xfinity's ratio actually makes most of their packages virtually useless for anyone using nanny/security cams, video chatting, streaming gameplay, subscribing to cloud data backup, remote work arrangements, and online content creation. What is egregious is how Xfinity hides this information because they know a significant and growing number of users use the internet for the above actions.

    So, armed with this information, I reached back out to Xfinity. I specifically sent the link to the Network Management page on the Xfinity website and challenged the upload speeds. The agent looked at the page and compared with my address and the plans available in my area. Her response - "As of January 7 the plans have been upgraded in your neighborhood." She said the plans are now fully symmetrical (upload and download speeds are identical) so if I needed 25mbps upload the 25mbps plan would achieve this. Unconvinced, I challenged her and she further illustrated that the speeds of the plans in my area didn't match what was on the Network Management page. I knew that under the new cable modem standard (DOCSIS3.1) upload speeds of 1600mbps were possible and Xfinity is under pressure from Fiber providers so At this point, she sounded pretty credible. I signed up for 100mbps.

    Two days later, service is activated. I run the speed test...90mbps down, 5mbps up. I contacted Xfinity and explained what happened and what I was promised. The first agent, clearly realizing this wouldn't be a simple "restart your modem" call transferred me to billing. They kept apologizing that I was misled and that they would investigate and make sure feedback was given to the sales staff but the only solution they offered was for me to pay more to get a package upgrade. They refused to provide any discount or credit. Even more absurd is that the upgrade packages he offered didn't even match what was available when I was logged into their website and he couldn't explain the difference. I had to explain the irony to him - here he was saying the other agent misled me and at the same time he is trying to sell me something that conflicts Xfinity's own website.

    At one point, the agent offered to include 30 days of free streaming if I upgraded (at full price). This really infuriated me because I suspected, and confirmed with the agent, that this "offer" would automatically start billing me extra if I didn't cancel within 30 days! His supervisor came on to try and resolve the situation but offered no help. She explained that no Xfinity service offers 100mbps upload speed so I was clearly wrong. To this I reminded her that current technologies easily support the speed I was promised when signing up. I asked her how I could know Xfinity was a terrible, cheap company that never invested in its infrastructure. She then wanted to pass me to another department but after 2 hours I was exhausted.

    Here is a summary:
    - Xfinity hides their full service details because it is terrible (even the Xfinity speed test site defaults to hiding upload speed and latency).
    - The sales agent lied to me about the service I would receive.
    - They said "sorry" but refused to do anything to rectify.

    - They actually tried to sell me upgrades so I could receive the service I was previously promised!

    I realize options may be limited for people - that was my challenge and the only reason I considered Xfinity in the first place. If you have any other options I strongly urge you to explore them. Fortunately, I have the peace of mind that Xfinity will be out of business in 5 years because they won't be able to compete with Fiber and 5G.

    It’s unbelievable how Comcast increases and adds “fees and taxes” when you call to talk to someone they are reading off a script, I guess to “try and say the right thing, no RIGHT about increasing the bill with nonsense charges. Going to leave comcast! Think twice about signing up for comcast!

    No stars if possible. An absolute joke. Talked with 5 different agents over two weeks. Every single one tried the exact same things as the first agent which did not work. I kept telling the other agents everything that had been tried, but they wouldn't hear it. It is like they have a list of five things to try, and if that doesn't resolve it, they don't know what to do. The next thing they do is open a customer support case for you and you wait three days (THREE DAYS!!!) for a "smarter" agent to call you. When they do, they take you through the exact same troubleshooting attempts as the other agents.

    After they are flummoxed, they say that their engineering team will contact you, or you can call them directly. When you call the number, you get a computer that will not let you connect with a real person. And guess what? The computer suggest that you reset your system again the same as the agents did. I finally gave up when the last agent asked me to unplug my flex box--which had already tried four times--and told her I was going out to buy a Roku. And I did.

    This company hiding their fees in the footnotes is an old story. But yesterday, I discovered they even cheat on their offers. Xfinity had some discounted offer on the internet, and the last day to sign up was yesterday. I chatted with a rep online and completed my order, ticked all boxes, put my credit card info and submitted. I got "order received" and confirmation emails after that, and I scheduled an install. The next day, they give me a call saying that, sorry, your order didn't go through and now you don't have access to the promotional rate anymore, so you have to sign up for a more expensive package. Seriously?? I'm very annoyed by the companies like Comcast and their inexhaustible ways to screw up their customers!

    Absolutely appalled by the customer service at Comcast Xfinity Internet. My signed on in October 2018 without a contract period (knowing as a military fiance I'd be moving) and was told the rate. I was told I could self-install, which was wrong. I had to wait for a representative to be available to come out which lead to my service actually starting over a month after I had signed up. A year after joining my cost increased, I asked why, in which they responded I was in a year long contract/promotion.

    Multiple representatives in Atlanta called around my "renewal" time, all offering different promos and all saying I had to commit over the phone at the moment. That if I did not commit now there was no guarantee the deal would be available later, even when I asked for documentation they said I had to stay on the phone to receive, read, and commit or the deal would end. I accepted the increase, to now find out two months later they increased their rates for anyone not in contract. I explained again I didn't commit before because I was engaged to someone in the Army and now I can't commit to a contract because we are going to be living somewhere without Xfinity.

    I asked if a discount was available, they said there are discounts they are allowed to offer but not for my circumstances. The "escalation" representative told me if I had signed on originally under his name, I would have gotten out of my contract with the move, but there is nothing they could do for us at this point. The only deal I could get was for signing up for auto-pay which wouldn't start for 45 days (we're likely moving before that). My bill has now increased twice and my service has been worse than ever since I didn't "renew" in October. I would highly recommend going with anyone else if possible.

    Less than 4 months into my cable/internet contract, my price just jumped another $100/year. Stopped by my local Comcast store to check it out, and they told me "Oh, these are fees and taxes - they don't apply to your price guarantee - there's nothing we can do about these."

    I have Comcast Xfinity gigabit internet and the speed has never been the problem - it does a good job staying around 800 megabits per second. However, they have implemented a data cap that charges you $10 for each 50 gigs you go over. There is no need for this, especially now that we're at the age of digital content replacing physical copies of movies and games. If your child downloads a video game a month and likes to watch Twitch, you stream content on a fire/appleTV stick or chat with family via Facetime you will undoubtedly be paying an overage fee each month. There is no need for this cap - the difference between hitting the cap or staying under is immaterial to Comcast. This is purely greed, and the same system cell phone providers have duped customers with for years. I strongly recommend not to support a business with a practice such as this.

    Fast internet, sometimes, horrendous service and shady billing. They make it time-consuming to cancel service. Once you cancel, they block your online account from taking payments, and when you call to make a payment they send you back to the online payment system which is deactivated. When you reach out to them on Twitter, they send you a code in order to be able to talk to you, but after multiple attempts, their code system doesn't work. After multiple attempts to pay the early termination fee failed, they threaten you with late payment fees. Absolutely the most dysfunctional, poor service I have ever witnessed. I can list dozens of other issues while being a customer, these issues are based on the cancellation experience only.

    Our contract will be expired in December of 2019 and we called Comcast in November of 2019. We got a promotion package from an agent that she told us we would pay the same total price as before (we confirmed with her that this includes the tax, equipment fee and everything else). She also told us that we would lose the Movie channel in order to keep the same total price as before. We were fine with it so we agreed to renew the contract for another year. However, when the bill arrives, it is $20+ higher than we were told. We called Comcast to question about the bill; we were very unsatisfied about the service we received from the agents of the retention department. We felt they did not really care about our problem and they were not friendly either. We have been with Comcast for 5 years, now our experience with Comcast has been turned into a nightmare.

    First, let me begin by saying the account is in my husband’s name and my name is different but that is irrelevant at this point. We have a child that is dependent on medical equipment that sends biofeedback to his doctors and nurses and today, our internet went out. My husband immediately picked up the phone to call Comcast to get a technician out and we spent FOUR HOURS ON THE PHONE WITH NINE PEOPLE TRYING TO GET THE INTERNET FIXED! We were told that the first available appointment would be on December 26th. After he spent an hour on the phone trying to explain to them the medical necessity we had for the Internet, I took over the phone call via speakerphone.

    Each time, I explained that we had a handicapped child and that without internet, the likelihood of him having to be transported by ambulance to our local children’s hospital was 100% and each representative said they would help us immediately “if they could just place us on a brief hold.” This turned into the call either being terminated or we sat on hold until someone answered, saying, “Hello, this is Comcast, how may I help you today?” Really???? This literally went on for three hours until one representative actually SAID, “Let me transfer you to someone in the US.” (At that point, I was in tears!)

    We had our 17 year old on another line with the ambulance company holding them off because the equipment is programmed to dispatch an ambulance if the electricity goes off or if any of the other monitors or programs are interrupted, etc.) By the time I got to person number 7, who stated his name was ‘Mike’, he said, "Let me put you on hold and see if I still have any technicians out on the road in your area. I can see this is very important.” He gave me the impression that he must be a local dispatcher or something along those lines.

    The next thing you know.... someone answers in India (I’m assuming, by the accent). I said, “Are you ** kidding me right now??? I just got transferred back to a call center?!?!” Again.... I told my story and then asked to speak to a Supervisor. The representative said she would put me right through to her AND PROMPTLY HUNG UP ON ME!

    This time, in about 30 seconds, my phone rang and it was them calling me back. The man identified himself as being from their “Excellence Center” and due to the medical nature of my call, he was going to see if he could help me. Mind you....by this point, it’s after 5:00 pm EST. He told me that since it was after 5:00 pm, the earliest he could get someone out would be tomorrow, between 3:00 and 5:00 because all of his technicians were booked for the day.

    Imagine how you would feel if someone told you that a regular, everyday customer came before your child that depended on a ventilator to breath and the machinery that ran those devices??? Because I asked him that exact question. He began to respond with, "Well, ma’am, I can’t disclose the nature of our customers that are ahead of you".... *this is where I cut him off*. I said, “Sir, that was a rhetorical question!” I then said to him, “Well, if you would have dispatched someone FOUR HOURS AGO WHEN WE INITIATED THIS PHONE CALL, you would still have someone out on the road making service calls wouldn’t you???”

    At that point, I realized we were in a hopeless situation and motioned to my 17 year old to go ahead and let the ambulance company start its ride over and told the agent on the phone that I had to go. Why? Because now I have to pack a bag and accompany my child to the hospital, where he will no doubt be spending Christmas. Comcast, I will send you the bill from the ambulance company and the hospital. And I’ll send photos of our family opening presents at the hospital. I hope NONE of you are ever in our situation. And if you are....may you receive the same treatment we received from you today!

    After doing a bit of research, I see that out if all of the places where reviews about Comcast can be left, you average a 1.6 out of 5. I also noticed that you have disabled the ‘review’ section of your Facebook page. Also, many of the comments under your ‘we do great things for our community’ headlines have been filtered out or censored because when you click on them, there are no comments. Even if you toggle the settings to ‘most relevant’ or ‘most recent’. They have all been censored out. That speaks volumes in itself! I should have done more research before signing up for your service. And from the feedback that people are leaving on my personal page, you have got to be the worst cable and internet company on the planet.

    I am hoping to call some attention to my current issues with Comcast Xfinity! On December 4 I called about getting new service run to our new home in Woodstock. This is a new construction development with 4 homes. The neighbor right outside our neighborhood has Comcast! First call I was told a request needed to be put in to see if the address was serviceable, and the agent would call me back within 48-72 hours. December 6 I called back..an agent then said "I can't believe they haven't called you back, they are usually very quick with this type of response. Let me put a note on your account stating you called and need an answer." I then called back December 9, another agent told me "it could be up to 10 business days before they have an answer back from the CAR department." On December 12 we got an automated call saying "your address is not serviceable."

    December 13 I called and was told a request was put in to CAR to make the road and homes serviceable. I asked for a timeline and they couldn't give me one. I called daily for ten days to try and get some kind of timeline or responsible response! I got a different answer every time I called. " We can't run lines until the development is completed" "Well I see here we told you on December 12..." "Let me send you to our moving department." The agents would tell me whatever they could so I would just hang up. The agent who sent me to the moving department ended up sending me to technical support. Technical support laughed and responded "I am the furthest guy to be able to assist you." He did the best he could and transferred me to where he thought I could be helped. But nope that guy just said "My supervisor said we expedited your ticket and that is all we can do at this point."

    I have asked to speak directly to the CAR department just so I can receive some kind of timeline... and I have gotten "I don't have access to that department," "My supervisor said they don't have a direct line," "I will email that department and have them call you withing 3 hours (no one ever called)." Mind you through this whole thing every time I call the only notes in Xfinity's system is from December 12 when we were told address was serviceable. The developer of my community has been trying since February 2019 to get internet ran!! During my multiple calls I have been answering survey questions. I got a call back about one of my many surveys I completed. That agent directed me to their moving department. I immediately called that number in hopes they could assist me. Come to find out it is a third party company called Porch.com.

    The agent there said he would set up a technician to come out in 4 days and do a survey on the house and the tech would call in a work order to get a line run. The day before the actual appointment we get a confirmation from Xfinity with the wrong address. We called Porch.com back and they said the address they show is correct, and we needed to call Xfinity. So I called Xfinity... They told me "the address is not serviceable, and let me transfer you to the CAR department."

    The first question I asked the agent when she picked up was "Is this the CAR department?" Her response was yes. Then after she went through all my notes she said their is nothing I can do until I get an update from the original agent who put in the order on December 12. I asked "Is there a direct line I can call you back on, since no one can seem to direct me to you?" Her response is, "I am just the billing department, you can call 1800Comcast." If I could have reached through the phone and smacked that woman I would have.

    So now our appointment has been cancelled. My husband works from home and we have kids! Who can live without internet these days. We close this Friday December 27 and can't even move into our new home because my husband can't even work! We only have one vehicle. So if my husband had to drive somewhere to work, the children and I would be stranded! I even at one point told the agent "Whatever amount of money needs to be thrown at this, let me know!" We live in a modern world and we have no other option other than Comcast and they do not give two licks about their customers. We can get a hotspot but that type of service is not going to work for the type of work husband does. THIS HAS BEEN A COMPLETE NIGHTMARE!

You cannot get a human no matter what you say or try because it’s scanning your channels and they can’t help you until that process is complete. Really! I don't have channels I only have internet! Nobody knows what they are doing, most of the time you get someone who isn’t fluent in English and that includes the chat which I did try.

It will only cause more problems so leave it as it is! So after 2 years of asking that problem be corrected, I come home tonight and my internet has been shut off because of this problem that I had been asking them to fix for past 2 years!!

When I complained about the poor performance of the app, Comcast’s answer was to rent a cable box ($5/mo) in order to get uninterrupted television. Really??!! That is the answer to a malfunctioning streaming app? Just imagine of Netflix or Hulu or Amazon Prime said that! I am switching back to AT&T tomorrow and will reconnect my antenna for local tv channels. No more Comcast for me!

    I work on the internet and every couple of weeks the internet goes out. When it goes out it costs me $31 per hour plus it gives me a bad reputation. Xfinity Comcast has been out for 4 and a half hours so far during my work schedule. I'm likely to lose my job. I pay them $155 per month for high speed internet and they're always doing maintenance. I am a teacher and cannot afford this anymore. And they refuse to let me talk to an actual person unless I cancel my service. This is infuriating and frustrating to say the least. I wish I wasn't handicapped and could get a job without the internet. Then I would cancel and never look back.

    My internet service works fine for seconds, interrupted often for minutes, and frequently times out because of loss of internet service. This is unacceptable for cable. Cable should be very fast and very reliable. This service is neither. I call routinely to address the problem but the representatives and the company feel no obligation to provide an acceptable service. I would recommend that if there is any other alternative, that it would likely be better than Xfinity/Comcast. I have had better services in the 80's on dial-up modems with data rates that we got in "baud". In this day and age, Xfinity is pitiful to say the least.

    For a company that charges as much money as Comcast does, you would expect customer service 24/7. That used to be the case, but unfortunately it is no longer is. It doesn't matter what department you are trying to get to, after 6 p.m. you are out of luck. I would expect a bit more from a company that made 94 BILLION dollars last YEAR. When the internet is up, it's got pretty good speed. No complaints as far as that is concerned. But the down time and lack of customer service really makes me wish there was a better option.

Unfortunately this has happened multiple times and we are extremely frustrated. It seems the equipment is cheaply made and extremely faulty. The cost per month is much higher than our previous provider and the customer service is 100% worse. Every person we get on the phone (after 20 ish minutes - EVERY TIME of fighting with the robot) just says "Hmmmm", "uhhhh", "yes that does seems to be the problem", "have you tried to turn it off for a few minutes?". It is the same problem every time and I am sick of paying through the roof.

    I have had Comcast for many years but have since become a Winter Texan for 4 months plus months each winter. I had tried to get a seasonal cancellation but it is too short (90 days). Last year and the year before I was allowed to have no contract so I could cancel and then renew 4+ months later. This year I canceled as usual but received a $60 bill due to "early contract cancelation" when I explicitly had said I did not want a contract.

    Today, when I called to inquire about the error I was told I had a contract. They even sent me a copy of my renewal showing that I had agreed to a contract. I have no way to contradict this even though the person I renewed with said I would not have a contract as I requested and was granted the past two years. I hate that they signed me up without my agreement and generated a false document to "prove" it. I will be looking for a new provider in April.

    I mistaken switch to Comcast four weeks ago. During the initial visit on 11/2/19 Comcast was unable to set-up my new Arris SB8200 modem. The tech instructed me to call in about two days and they would help me set-up modem. In addition to not being able to set-up modem, the tech asked if he could cut off the cat 5 jacks which are part of my home network. I immediately told the tech not to cut any of the existing wiring. Two days later I call Comcast customer service and after about three hours on the phone, multiply call transfers, the Comcast support team was unable to correctly set-up modem and provide the 1 Gig service I purchased. Finally I request that they send a tech out the next Saturday to correct issue.

    During the second visit on 11/9/19 the second tech was able to activate modem, but was unable to provide the 1 gig service purchased. In fact, my speed from Comcast was in the range of 85 Mbps to 128 Mbps. The tech stated that it was an issue with my new Arris SB8200 modem. I called the Arris support team and they stated that Comcast needed to load the most recent firmware. I then called Comcast back and went thru about three to four support associates and they were unable to help. In fact the last Comcast associate sent something to the modem which made the internet speed drop to up 25 Mbps. Realizing this associate was making things worst, I request another tech for the following Saturday.

    The following Saturday (11/16/19) two techs spent four hours at my home. During the visit they changed our the leads on the cable coming into home and to the router. They were in my data box removing splitters and other items. By the end of the visit my home cat 5 service was not working and my internet speed was not consistent. They stated they did not know what was going on and how to fix. I requested that they have their supervisor call me. He stated that his supervisor would call and he also stated that Comcast would fix my home network that either he or the three tech prior messed up.

    On Monday 11/18/19, I received a call from Jamie the installation supervisor. He ask what was the issue with my service (pretty sad that after 15 plus call to Comcast and three prior techs I needed to again communicate that I was not getting the 1 gig service which I purchased). After communicating issue, he stated that he wanted to come to my home with his best tech to fix issue. We agreed on 11/21/19 but he want me to call him back to confirm a time. On 11/21/19 I called to confirm at 4:30 pm, but Jamie stated we need to reschedule for Saturday, 11/23/19. We agreed on 9:00 am to 10:00 am time. At 10:00 am, I called Jamie and he stated that he was just leaving and would arrive by 10:30 am.

    When he arrived, I again explained that over the last three weeks, his team had removed cat 5 cable, removed cable splitter and that I had to tell one of his techs not to cut my the cables on my home network. After about a hour, they briefly got my home network working, but the internet speed would not get higher than 45 Mbps. I finally asked Jamie what Comcast was going to to correct issues. He stated that the home Network was my issue. I stop him and stated that my network worked fine with United Communication (pay for 250mbps and received 250mbps) and the issues started when his team attempted a install.

    Finally I stated, "Jamie you need to understand customer service 101. Your team messed up and broke something on my home network and needed to fix it." He replied “it’st your word against mine”. I then stated, "As God is my witness, my network work fine prior to your team ———— my network. Jamie and his partner then walked out leaving the system not functioning. I asked them to take their equipment and end my service with Comcast. They just left. Later I called Comcast customer service to cancel my service and the representative stated that I would have to pay an early disconnection fee. I asked to speak to her boss, but he was on lunch.

They do not give one ** about you other then you paying them. They will raise your rates every year if you don't call and complain. Then when you do they will sign you up for a "promotion" to get your normal rate back but, they will use their promotion to upsell you and then they mail you equipment to support their upsell all so they don't price gouge the crap out of you. Then at the end of the year your bill will skyrocket and you'll have to return the equipment (i.e a TV box) you never really wanted but, they attached to the promotion so you have to take it if you want the affordable price again.

    Then when you finally move (after paying them for 5+ years, on time every month) and need to cancel your service, if you are involved in their "Promotions" and can't used their service at your new address they charge you a termination fee. You know just to say thank you for the 5 years of business you gave them. Their excuse is always the same, "Well sir it says it on the fine print of your bill." They're not lying, it does.

    Have moved to a few locations over past few years, and surprisingly have had "ok" experience with Comcast. Just moved to a new location, and set up the Performance Pro (200 down, 5 up) at the current deal price of $39.99. It worked easily! Over the next month, I got disconnected twice by Comcast (i.e. I came home from work, internet is down and acts like it needs to be set up new). The first time, I called and the rep reactivated it quickly saying it was a bug where it thought my modem was being used in two locations at once.

    The second time, I spent an hour on the phone with a (very kind) woman trying to figure out why my account had been disconnected again - I'm talking 100% account shut down, so the phone system didn't even recognize my phone number so it took an extra 10 minutes to even get through to a human. She hypothesized that a technical team had manually blacklisted my modem, but they only work during the day so I was out of luck. After another 45 minute call this morning, my modem has been re-added to my account.

    However! Because the monthly deals have changed, the original plan (Performance Pro internet for $39.99/month) is no longer available. Despite every human I talked to sympathize and agree that I'm essentially being forced to pay more (same plan is at $44.99/month now) at no fault of my own, no one has offered to credit my account or override the sales system to get my old deal back.

    This experience with Comcast has been incredibly frustrating... I understand many people probably claim to be "one in a million" situations, but I've done my homework and confirmed with multiple reps that I was the victim of some unforeseen bug on Comcast's side. And at the end of the day, they are expecting me as the customer to pay more out of sympathy for Comcast's inflexible system design. If you have a choice, I would not recommend Comcast for service 100% due to their error handling process.

    I get an email on 31st October 2019 as specified that the cable has been laid out and order complete. But I didn't see anything coming into the home.. It was same as before except for some additional flags on the plot. Still I went ahead and booked the next appointment on 8th November 2019.

In addition their customer service reps will just say the same scripted lines over and over "I understand how you feel" or "I completely understand your frustration".

    In the beginning I just let the constant outages go because I thought it might be because they were upgrading their equipment, but nope, they're only putting a band-aid on old outdated wiring so every time it goes down (AT LEAST twice a week) I call them IMMEDIATELY and ask for the maximum credit. Do NOT let them tell you they can only give you credit for the time your service was down or a "free movie coupon" because as a consumer who pays them they MUST either provide service or compensation.

    BTW, if you call them and that automated telephone service says their office is closed call back during business hours, just say "disconnect my service" or "loyalty department" (you might have to call back several times to get through, so don't give up). I've had enough of giving them my hard earned money for them not to provide the service they promise to deliver so I will be changing to another Internet provider and doing away with cable TV altogether.

Checked and we did not have WE and Discovery channels we previously had. (We are big Law and Order fans). Tried to chat with someone online - No one available. Then called and spoke with a representative who could not help me. Rep. said she hears this exact complaint from many customers. She was very nice and recommended I contact the "Customer Solutions Team" the next day.

    I contacted "Customer Solutions team" this afternoon. The lady on the phone told me I would not be getting my channels back as I was in a grandfather plan and she could not help me. How can Xfinity practice business this way? This is "Bait and Switch" we came off a less expensive, no-contract plan to a more expensive, 24 month contact plan and do not even have the channels we watch all the time!! More importantly, I was never informed that we would lose those channels, by the online rep. I spoke with before ordering or we would have NEVER upgraded (?). I have filed a complaint with the FCC as when I was speaking with representative today and asked her who do I file a complaint with she told me "It's me. You are speaking with the right person". I told her I wanted to make a complaint against Xfinity business practices and she replied "I don't know who", and proceeded to tell me she was the person I needed to speak with.

    After having slow service for over a year and no service for over a week now and multiple calls and technician visits, wasted $120 on the pods they recommended, technician not showing up, one showing up to tell me they do not perform the service he was scheduled to perform after taking off work; we still have no service and the agents just lie, make promises they do not keep, talk you into purchasing unnecessary equipment that actually makes the problems worse.

    The so called supervisors blame their customers for their ineptness and incompetence, create extreme inconveniences to their customers, then after wasting many hours of their customers time, have the nerve to say "we won't do anything to compensate you for your time". Only a lousy $20 for the one technician who came out and could not perform the work scheduled, not to mention he also did not get paid since he is paid by the job. Not a dime for a technician failing to show up altogether or for the over 4 hours of wasted time on the phone. This company is absolutely horrible as their reviews reflect, over 75% 2 stars or less, you are much better off finding a reliable company who actually cares about their customers and their time.

This is in addition to the “normal” known problems which include issues with their DNS resolvers, modems going bad, regular outages, etc. I’m now moving and they don’t allow service to be transferred between areas.

Xfinity has a monopoly in our area so even though the neighbor has CenturyLink we have no other options. My last bill they added a bunch of charges and when I called in about it they refused to give a refund. Their prices are absolutely ridiculous and you have to watch the bill like a hawk for extra charges. If you have ANY other option don't get this, it works well but for double or triple the cost.

    Comcast is disappointing mainly in its persistent failure to be clear and upfront with customers around pricing. The monthly internet deal does not kick in until 30 days, & this is not explained. It should be. It's not false advertisement per se to say that the promotion exists; it does, and yet the actual nature of the promotion itself coasts on the edge of false advertisement because the first month--no matter how early you engage with services--is exempt from the promotion. This must be stated upfront. Knowing what I know now, I would not have chosen Comcast purely because of the way profit is put before integrity, honesty, and customer satisfaction. To be clear, I would rather purchase services from another service even at a greater expense. Do not waste your time. Comcast will do its best to take money from you when it can.

I don't use streaming services or cable. I called in and asked to have it set up. Both representatives I spoke with tried to get me on the 100 mbps plan with the "free" streaming cable service.

    Both service guys said that I wanted to pay more for a worse plan and made me feel like a moron, and I repeated I can't use the other service and don't want to worry about streaming. I just want basic internet, if I have to pay more each month that's just a terrible business model on your part, it's really not my problem. Both of them talked me in a circle so that they wouldn't send anyone out to set up internet without accepting the 100 mbps plan (for one basic phone and nothing else).

This is hardly “fair” – it is outrageous.

I have a Comcast business account and am supposed to get 150 Mbps (that's what they advertise) and I average around 67 Mbps. I have called in 5 times in the last two weeks. They sent out a tech, which was a very nice guy but all he could do is reset the modem (which I could have done myself) and they charged me $99.95. According to the tech, the issue is at their end on the street. He put in a maintenance request and they were supposed to be out that day but our service never improved so I assume they were a no show. Business accounts are supposed to get serviced within 24 hours. Well, it has been a week and they have yet to come to fix the problem.

    Secondly, I had an outside office for my graphic design business and Comcast was the only choice so I signed a 2-year contract after that 2 years I moved my office back home and tried to cancel Comcast because we have TDS fiber optics at the house. Well apparently I called in to reduce services a year earlier and that signed me up for another 2-year contract.

    So, rather than pay the $2100 early termination fee, I moved my business Comcast account home. I switched from blazing fiber optics to a slow unstable Comcast service. AND apparently, when I signed the installations papers when I moved the service to my house I signed up for another 2 years. This was never discussed and I was under the impression the document I signed was acknowledging the service tech has completed his task. Granted, I should read everything I sign but should not I be told beforehand that I'm signing a 2 years contract rather than a service receipt?

    I had a prior experience with Comcast in which I called to cancel a one-year internet service contract shortly before the end of the 12th month, and demanded termination at the end of month 12, such that I would owe Comcast nothing and Comcast would owe me nothing. Comcast, however, did not cancel until the first day of the 13th month and then claimed that I owed a service fee for another full month of service, for a total of 13 months.

    I was determined to prevent Comcast from engaging in such dishonest conduct again. This time, I canceled on the last day of the 12th month. Comcast, however, then sent me a bill demanding payment of a $10 “early termination” fee. A Comcast employee has told me that, according to Comcast, the contract could not properly be canceled until the first day of the 13th month of service. As noted, the last time they chose to cancel on that date they claimed that termination was late and I was liable for an additional month of service.

    It is readily apparent from the above facts that Comcast has employed a scheme to defraud consumers who cancel service at the end of a one-year service agreement by charging a bogus fee consisting of either (1) a service fee for a 13th month of service (if Comcast chooses to terminate the first day of a 13th month of service) or (2) an early termination fee (if Comcast terminates service on the last day of the 12 month service period). In other words, Comcast has devised a scheme under which there is no date that a consumer can cancel service at the end of a one-year agreement that Comcast will not claim to be either one day late or one day early, for which Comcast will attempt to impose an additional charge. That, at least, has been my experience. Such conduct constitutes nothing short of fraud.

Collection informed me that I have to contact Comcast so they can inform them of the updated charge. I contacted Comcast only for them to say we can't access account after giving them full name and address. I get policies but I have a completely different driver's license, new payment card, and since I moved to another state have no access to a previous bill to see account number. Despite all these issues I figured Comcast would at least figure out a way in order to help better assist me since essentially they failed to adjust the price in the first place.

    All I wanted to do was pay the collection agency but Comcast has proven they are not willing to work with the customer to resolve issues. Even the customer service agent although he did ask superior. He states, "No need to worry. Comcast will eventually adjust it." I have zero confidence in Comcast making the correction because I turned in that equipment months ago and again I still have the receipt as proof. Even asking for the receipt number you would think would be sufficient. Despite Comcast/Infinity being used many times over the years, I'll never again get Comcast again because I am now going to be forced to pay an additional 100 dollars despite having proof that I returned equipment just to get this off my credit report.

    I'm in a leased building where we had Wow internet, and for the price and performance it was great. I had no problems whatsoever with this internet. I was getting 140Mbps down and 30Mbps upload. Since this building is in contract with internet providers, somehow Comcast swindled their way into the contract. I was paying 40 a month for what I previously stated, and under Comcast new agreement for the first year I'm over that budget 20 bucks plus taxes. I'm only getting 60 down and 5 upload. My download is fine, and I have no problems out of it, but my uploads keep reaching depths of .80Mbps to 1.5Mbps. Not 5. My gameplay is horrible, my ping is 500 or more and Apex Legends is unplayable with red meters every game. Come on. It is only a lousy 5. They should most definitely be able to provide that. What about the most expensive tiers. Who would want this trash if they can't even give you 5 upload speed more so over the most priced one.

    They charge so much for crap. We call them comcrooks. I have called repeatedly and the same nooob call center reading from a screen and the same steps over and over. I asked for a tech to come out sure, but then the catch hits. If they find nothing wrong or with your side you pay 75 dollars. Screw that I'm paying you for service. I'm not happy with this company. Plus they give you a slotted about of bandwidth? What is this a phone company. Whoever sits at that table and helps with making decisions about how to run this company must be half crazy. They know they have most control in this area and force people to pay high prices for total trash. I would love to have Wow internet again, but I'm not able unless the place I stay contracts back. They always fixed my problem and helped me stay at a price I could deal with. Thx wow, too bad comcast hasn't learned a thing or 2 from you.

    Comcast is a rip off. I wanted to turn my cable off and change my internet to the student internet 9.95/month and they told me that the bill for my internet and security would be 142.00. THAT IS RIDICULOUS!!! I may as well keep the cable. Then they told me that since I'm existing customer. I would have to cut my service off for 3 months and then I can get the 9.95 internet. WHAT A BUNCH OF BULL!!! I will be looking for another service and turning all my services off with comcast!

    A few weeks ago I signed up for a promotional offer of Select Triple Play, upgrading my current package. The service worked fine for a few weeks, until this morning when it had reverted to my old plan. After a lengthy phone conversation, I was informed that my modem is ineligible for a Triple Play package and Comcast attempted to upcharge me to rent their own $13/month model.

    I am frustrated that A) when I signed up for the package a few weeks ago I was not informed of any technical requirements, B) I received no notification (no phone call, no e-mail, no mail) that my plan was reverted back to the old one and C) when I requested a simple e-mail or mail confirmation that my original contract was terminated they told me I needed to go into my local office. I am unlucky to not have a choice of ISP in my area, but if you do I'd highly recommend to look elsewhere.

    I have had Comcast in multiple states, and every time it's an uphill battle to get the speeds I pay for. Customer service is always very accommodating and polite, but I wouldn't need to go to them if my product worked correctly in the first place. They will invent excuses, only use their internal speed test for benchmarks, and bend over backwards to justify the slower speeds. Usually, I will call customer service, they will reset service on their end, and then I will get my speed for a day before it drops back to slow.

    Meanwhile, I used Wave for a year and got the speeds I asked for right out of the box. The technician who installed my service used a third party speed test for benchmarks, which enabled an accurate picture of real world conditions. It was a breath of fresh air to work with a company that didn't make excuses, they simply gave me what I paid for. If it wasn't for the fact that Comcast is the only ISP available at my new home, I would never use them.

    Since October 2018 I believe I have talked to them over a thousand times about my bill, I feel like Comcast is a scam and I'm sick of them billing me two months in advance. I only have Wi-Fi and the house phone which is supposed to be $64 and every month my bill is 140 hundred sixty different amounts. When I pay what I'm supposed to pay the same day I get another bill saying I owe $79 or something in that order. The lady told me herself, "They bill you two months in advance" is unfair. I haven't had a peace of mind since I had Comcast. Somebody need to do something about Comcast billing consumers 2 months in advance. So what if you decide to have your service is disconnected when your contract is up. What happens to all the extra money them billing you two months in advance. Don't they still owe you a refund on all the months they bill you in advance.

    I moved to an area where Comcast Internet was not being offered so I had to cancel my account with them. I thought that I had paid everything off until I received a bill notification via email m. As I try to access my account, I find that it is no longer active. So I called Comcast customer service inquiring on this bill, and the representative I spoke with said that I had a zero balance and was not sure why I was receiving bill notifications. She removed my email from the system and we happily parted ways.

    Fast forward to two months, I receive a collections notice from Sequium Asset Solutions that I had a past due bill from Comcast. Come to find out, the representative was looking at the wrong account initially. In reality, I had a balance of $72. I was not given notification that I had an outstanding bill. They removed my email from their system, they did not give me a call, they did not send me a letter! Since I was no longer a customer, I was basically dead to them. The rep basically said ‘too bad so sad,’ Pay your bill that we never told you about!!!

    Never again! I’ve had been burned by Comcast so many times that this was definitely the last time I’ll ever do business with them! And since the manager that was supposed to call me back never did, I am going to send a letter to the Better Business Bureau about this and to their corporate office. This is absolutely ridiculous. The lack of accountability and care for their customers is heinous.

    I was spending $59 a month just on wifi and the service has been horrible! A little over a month ago (I believe, not good on the dates) when I called to cancel my service due to my frustrations after 13 years of being a customer, I was transferred to a foreign customer reps. Unfortunately, there are inaccuracies (although they feel like absolute lies) to get me into a new program with a razzle dazzle offer. Come to find out a month later I am being charged $20 more, one of the credits she promised mysteriously was not applied nor is this not on any of her notes nor are the other promises, such as quadruple the speed for a low price, the extra $25 credit, the credits for paperless and automatic payment. It seems as you continue to expand Comcast-Xfinity is dropping the ball. It is truly unfortunately the worst company ever and it continuously gets worse!

    Here are the main issues: I had been having severe issues with my wifi since I purchased a modem over two years ago. Why so long to deal with an issue, who has hours and hours to spend on the phone to rectify a service that should work seamlessly to begin with? If the service is not working well you should begin paying your customers for their time, maybe this will ensure the work is being done correctly. Initially I was told it was my modem at which point I spent $279 on a new modem. This was an ordeal in itself because the system refused to acknowledge my new modem and did not want to remove the old modem from my account that I had been renting from Comcast over two years ago. This issue alone took literally several months to fix (it was insane). Despite changing the modem, I was still experiencing issues.

    When I finally got home from my travels, back in April, (I was traveling and had various household members try to call in and rectify the issue to no avail) I had 3 service techs come to my home to figure out the issue. By the third rep Comcast finally decided to update the line to my home (it took 3 technicians to figure this out? So 3 days I had to take time out of my day to help facilitate this). Not acceptable. Last month (give or take a couple of days) I called to cancel because of issues I was continuing to have with your service dropping and every time I called I would spend over an hour with a rep (that is not sustainable or viable for my time). When I called to cancel I was transferred to a different country and told things that were untrue, so that I would renew and get locked into yet another year.

    I was told the following: I was going to get $50 total for all the issues I was having. I was going to get 4 times the speed for what I had been paying. I was never told that I would have overages despite me asking on many occasions if I would be paying a flat fee.(For these reasons I renewed the contract for a year. I kept asking her that in order to renew the price kept coming up as $70 and that I did not want to pay this. She told me I would get $10 credit for paperless and $10 credit for automatic payment. I called today and find out it was incorrect.)

    Upon the updating of speed of my wifi to the new plan, my wifi dropped in speed and continuously lags even worse than before. In speaking with tech support, he says that everything looks great on his end. Why am I getting a bill for $79 not the $49 I was promised? I have been on the phone for over an hour and again no one is paying for my time. I asked to speak to a supervisor her name is Lakesha (I had to ask the customer service rep, Bianca, 5 times) and I was told that the supervisor would call me when she could squeeze me on her time. I have conference calls, I have individuals to manage, meetings etc. I asked for an email where Lakesha and I can set up a call and was told that this service does not exist.

    From my perspective this would be a more conducive way of facilitating expedited service rather than calling back and forth. Where is the mindfulness to the customer? Today I also asked Bianca for the name of the original individual from the foreign country who signed me up this last time and she is not required to put her name on my account? I asked for a transcript of our phone conversation to prove that I was given incorrect information and again this was not available. So I am at the mercy of a foreign customer service representative? Incorrect notes were put on my account and no customer issues were properly annotated.

    It became clear to me today in speaking with your customer service rep Bianca, during her review of my account notes, upon listening to her read off her notes and the other reps notes who signed me up again, that they literally only cover their tracks in "what they say to the customer" rather than truly reflecting what the customer is complaining about. I had to ask her several times to amend the notes to truly reflect what I I am having issues with. Since when do the notes on a customer's account become about the representative and not the customer? It seems as though these individuals are more concerned about what they are communicating rather than what the customer is communicating.

    Today, I am still having the same issues, despite increasing the speed, getting a new box and line and purchasing a new mode. (Frankly I am tired that I have to spend my time to get appropriate service, pay Comcast and I do not get paid for my time plus pay for a service I am not getting.) After this I was on the phone with Dennis in tech support and he will be getting back to me because in reviewing the back end tech notes they were clear and succinct that he was able to verify that indeed I had been having issues since April. (I can tell you it has been a lot longer however I do not have the time to constantly and consistently be on the phone. I have attached a screenshot showing that I today I was on the phone for an hour and twenty four minutes!)

    You have so many different departments that are non responsive or communicating with each other and it makes things exceptionally challenging for the end user. As an example the woman from the foreign country that shared the inaccuracies does not have a name. Nor am I able to obtain the transcript of our conversation. I would like a comprehensive and immediate solution (I have been a Comcast consumer for over 13 years). What I was promised? Plus I do not expect to pay overages for the duration of the contract. Since I was never told about this during the renewal of my service, I was not even aware of this until today. And whatever else you are aware that would help to ease these frustrations.

    Maria I do hope that individuals who can implement some of my issues in a constructive way do get this information. In the end a happy customer is a loyal customer. Without customers there is no Comcast. I reached out to you today due to the countless hours that I have spent in frustration hoping that if individuals such as yourself are knowledgeable of point of sale issues they can make a difference.

    This company is beyond belief. I wanted to add internet to our service and scheduled an appointment. They didn't show. I called and rescheduled. They didn't show. But they did send a technician to "fix" our t.v. - they changed a channel - and want to charge us for it. I called and talked to a rep who was supposed to give a callback - and never called. I called again and talked to a rep who wanted to sign up for a contract, and who said that the termination clause would not apply. I asked for it in writing, and he said he can't. He kept me on the phone though asking me to look at this and that. I asked (again) for a supervisor - by this time I was at the boiling point - who again told me they can't send me something in writing (of course Comcast can - this is legal and possible, but they won't). 6 hours of my time gone today.

    Comcast Internet support is inadequate. I had a problem with connectivity when we changed the computer that was wired. The wireless would not work for all devices after that. After an exhausting "chat" online that did not help, we were supposed to get a replacement modem the next day. It still has not come, and it is several days later, and they don't know why that happened. In addition, they made an appt in case that didn't work, but the modem was not even received yet to now, and the appointment was supposed to be today. In addition, come to find out, they did not really make the appointment. I am looking for another provider. They take my money for a bundle with TV/Internet/phone, and I am tired of paying money for services that are substandard. Unfortunately this company is big enough that the average customer is not valued, and your business does not really impact their overall cash flow.

    Comcast/Xfinity is thus far the worst internet provider I have ever used...which is saying something because there are some terrible providers out there. If I could give them a 0 on reliability I would. I have had them a little over 2 months and so far they have had an "outage in my area" twice both that lasted hours. As I am a remote employee and these always happen during business hours it is infuriating. Today's outage that is going on 3+ hours has been the most inconvenient as it happened while I was giving a live webinar. Oh and customer service? Yeah you can't talk to them, just a recording that says "Sorry for the inconvenience but we expect to fix the issue today" like I should thank them for that! Seriously the WORST.

    If you have a CHOICE, use someone OTHER than Comcast. I've been a customer for nearly 20 years. Comcast regularly increases prices, this is clearly a known practice. The communication only comes as an increased bill, where your choices are to blindly pay or request a call back and ask to cancel services. If they call you back, they will either offer a lesser service for a lower price or sometimes increased service for the same higher price you've been billed for anyway. Either way, it is always for a limited time (12 or 24 months) and this must be done again after the limited time (which by the time it happens you are back at learning by the increase in your bill).

    Over time, this will end up with offers that only continue to increase your price and lower your service. Clearly there are a industry created territories, so the idea of shopping at a cheaper store isn't even possible. So if you need internet for your children's school, then you are going to fall victim to this monopoly driven crime. I finally gave up on the shell game and cancelled my service. Two things have happened since doing this. The website that I would normally use to pay my bill is now a "Restricted Section", so I am not able to see or pay my bill. And second, when I (use the only means to contact them) request a phone call to resolve this, I get the call from an automated caller and immediately hung up on when I press 1 to connect the call. If I suffer any further issues trying to make my FINAL payment, I will simply turn this over to my Lawyer. Stay tuned.

    On Tuesday, August 27, 2019, my internet went out after a bad storm. I reached out to Comcast via chat and was directed they only handled post pay accounts and because I was a prepaid customer, they could not assist me. The agent provided me with a phone number of 1-855-757-7372 to reach the correct department. The phone number does not get you to a live agent. The IVR system just loops you around in circles, never getting you to a live person. I then called post pay customer service at 1 (800) 934-6489 where I was finally able to reach an agent on Wednesday. I explained to the agent that I had been trying to call the prepaid number for hours and was unable to reach anyone. The agent attempted troubleshooting steps with me and once they determined that their steps were not working, connected me to a live agent in the prepaid department.

    I was advised of some new troubleshooting steps that I tried both with and without the prepaid agent. The issue was not resolved. I called back in on Thursday, once again having to speak to a post pay agent and then be transferred to a prepaid agent. I once again went through the troubleshooting steps with this agent and after she determined it could not be resolved, scheduled a technician to come on Friday, August 30, 2019 between 3 and 5pm CST. On Friday, I called customer service three times to ensure the technician was coming as I saw conflicting information on their app and because of the internet outage I was unable to receive inbound calls. The technician never showed up for the appointment and at 6pm CST, cancelled my appointment which I saw through the mobile app. I immediately called customer service and again had to speak to a post pay agent to get to a prepaid agent.

    The prepaid agent seemed unwilling to assist so I requested a supervisor. The supervisor stated they were going to assist me, and then put me on hold to review my account and reach out to the technician to come back by. This supervisor left me on hold for over an hour and a half and never came back to the phone. I had to hang up and call back. After explaining to yet another agent of the issues and attempting troubleshooting and just wanting them to send someone out to fix the connection, the agent told me that the technician came by but did not require entrance to my home as they only needed to work outside. This is untrue as I was repeatedly checking outside for the technician that never showed up.

    After requesting yet another supervisor, this supervisor advised me that they could not reach out to the technicians in any way as they are independent contractors and continued to force a late appointment on me after I explained that the outage was not my fault, the technician not coming was not my fault, and that I worked from home and could not work for several days because of this outage. They still refused to send out a technician in a time frame that I was initially promised. As of today, I am still without internet service that I pay for and another technician is not scheduled until Sunday between 5pm and 7pm CST causing me to miss out on an additional two days of working.

    Comcast Service is horrible. This company has the worst customer service that I have ever seen in a company in my life, and I am a business owner. Every time I need assistance no one is ever available. Unless it’s from another country that doesn’t speak any English. The representatives of this company far outweigh in a bad way any pile of dog feces that I may scoop up from my yard on a thunderstorm day. The worst was I have been paying for internet for three years and have turned in my modem box for replacement counting six times. Only to have the same reoccurring problems, with no one to even speak with about these issues, because the phone numbers are provided as a scam to trick people into thinking this company cares about its customers.

    If you actually cared about your customers, you might try answering the telephone when people are having problems. This company has cost me money due to down service and not being attentive to anyone’s needs. My wife can testify to how irritated we have become with Comcast’s Service, and how we’d rather just throw your equipment into the garbage. What has happened in the world to where people just stopped caring about customer service. You know without customers-you wouldn’t exist. And what’s sad is that so many people have service with you, you could really even care about the people that struggle with these same issues every day.
