Bank payment method

I am trying to use my banks checking account to pay my past due balance. I am waiting for my card to arrive in mail on Monday. Without my card or bank account option I have no way to make this payment. I believe that due to multiple failed attempts to charge my bank account is why I cant use it as a payment method. I believe my bank blocked them due to me not authorizing the transactions. I would appreciate if I can use my banks checking account for this one payment. It will go through. I have no other way to pay it until I get a card.

We sometimes need to speak with a live agent.  Please stop offering direct checking account numbers as a viable payment method if your company is not able to use these types of transactions.  My bank told me this morning that Xfinity was never able to withdraw directly from my checking account.  They have always used my debit card.  When my debit card became compromised, I did check to see if I needed to enter my new debit card.  Xfinity mislead me into thinking my payment method directly from my checking account was viable.  Your company was always taking the funds from my debit card and not my checking account directly.    Please remove or refund any late fees associated with this inaccuracy.  Your website lied to me, and you have refused me any live agent support.

Oh, I hear your struggle.  I just talked to the bank this morning, and Xfinity never did withdraw any money directly from my checking account.  That takes a different type of transaction or procedure.  They did take autopayments from the debit card associated with that same checking account.  The problems started when that debit card became compromised last month.  I had my direct  checking account number listed, but Xfinity was using the number off that compromised debit card instead.  I consider that a flat-out lie! We can't talk to anyone anymore to straighten these issues out.  

Basically, you'll need your new debit card.  For some reason Xfinity cannot withdraw directly from your checking account, even if they list that payment method on their website.  I'm going through the same problem, and they had the gall to charge me late fees!

Xfinity is the winner of "The Worst Customer Service" award by a long shot.
