Charged for returned equipment

Comcast has charged me $150 for RETURNED equipment. I called after receiving notice that I had not returned the equipment and provides the receipt and information from the UPS store detailing the date of return and the exact equipment that was returned. I received confirmation (twice) and that it was noted on my account. And still, I’ve been charged, with a zero balance.

I had to return 3dvr box’s.  Due to serious financial hardship.   My oldest son literally brought into a Comcast office. To avoid exactly what’s happening. (Getting charged for equipment fees.  This is now over a year. The Comcast discontinued the service as requested. But are still charging me for these 3 boxes that have been brought to an actual Comcast office.   I had to keep internet because my 2 SON’s. NEED INTERNET ACCESS CONSTANTLY FOR SCHOOL.     I AM AT A LOSS.  I AM PHYSICALLY PERMANENTLY DISABLED AND A SINGLE  MOTHER OF 2 boys one high school the older college.   But I have serious financial problems and don’t know how to get this issue resolved 

IF I DONT HAVE THE SERVICE THAT SAID EQUIPMENT NEEDS TO BE RETURNED. WHY WOULD I KEEP OR WANT THE EQUIPMENT???  I have called and emailed Comcast/XFINITY ON  SEVERAL DIFFERENT OCCASIONS.   AND MATTER IS STILL NOT RESOLVED 

I WOULD HAVE LOVED TO BE ABLE TO KEEP THE SERVICE. WE ARE UNABLE TO WATCH TV  BECAUSE OF FINANCIAL DIFFICULTIES AND I HAD TO CANCEL THE TV SERVICE.  AGAIN SO WHY WOULD I FOR WELL OVER A YEAR STILL WANT EQUIPMENT LYING AROUND THAT CAN NOT BE USED.    CAN ANYONE PLEASE ADVISE ME ON HOW ELSE THIS MATTER BE HANDLED BEING I HAVE NOT HAD SUCCESS WITH COMCAST/XFINITY VIS TELEPHONE

I keep receiving emails that I did not return my DVR box.  I returned it to the UPS store 0n 4/8/22 and the tracking number shows that it was received by Comcast on 4/11/22.  I do not want to be charged for equipment that I have already returned.

Hello @lauren1018! Thank you for reaching out to us on our community forum. I realize how concerning it is to get a message about equipment you've already returned and we definitely don't want you to be charged. Could you please send our team a direct message with your full name and full address?

This EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED TO ME!!! I’ve been dealing with comcast via customer support & billing support & now the finance team. I was charged for 3 RETURNED CABLE BOXES FOR 24 months, $502.50!! Now after being told I would get that refunded I was just told it’s not a possibility & that they could only go back 4 months?!! I haven’t had TV/Cable in over 24months, yet somehow I have been billed this entire time for 3 boxes! In 2020 I was charged $5 each box (x3 boxes) for $15.00

In 2021 the price increased to $7.50 per box, (x3 boxes) for $22.50 per month charged for 12 months now beginning in Jan 2022, the boxes again went up to $8.50 x3 for $25.5 per month for the last 5 months. I need this resolved. I can’t afford to be paying for services it was IMPOSSIBLE for me to use. This is after I personally returned the boxes to comcast, in April or May of 2020!

How do we speak to someone who can authorize the actual $ that was illegally charged for the last 24 months?
