Bill increased from $45 to $85 — discrepancy with advertised 5-year promotion

Hello,

My one-year promotional rate recently expired, and my monthly bill for 500 Mbps internet increased from $45 to $85. I contacted customer service, but the only alternative offered was to downgrade to 300 Mbps for $70/month, which still seems too expensive.

When browsing Xfinity's website, I found an offer for 1 Gbps internet with a five-year price guarantee advertised at $65/month. However, when I select the offer and proceed through checkout, the price changes to $75/month.

I'd appreciate help clarifying a few things:

  • Why does the advertised $65/month price change to $75/month during checkout?

  • Is this five-year promotion available to existing customers?

  • What is the best available rate for my account for either 500 Mbps or 1 Gbps?

I'd prefer to stay with Xfinity, but I don't think $85/month for my current service is reasonable, and the downgrade offer doesn't provide enough savings.

Thank you for your help.

I saw the exact same thing but with a higher advertised price ($85/mo). When I get to the final checkout, the cost is shown as $95/mo. It includes a $15/mo 5 year discount but no $10 discount for autopay. I'm an existing customer and do have payments direct from bank account.

Thanks.

Concern moved here to the Billing help section for greater exposure to Comcast corporate employees (The Digital Care Team) for assistance.

Good Morning, @user_618tc6! Thank you so much for taking the time to reach out to us here on the Xfinity Forums. I am very sorry to hear to about the experience with attempting to take advantage of the 1 Gig promotion. The difference might be due to the $65 price when signing up for automatic payments using your bank account information and paperless billing. I can certainly take a look into the account with you. Can you please send us a DM to get started?
