Chat agents lied to me

Xfiinity started charging me more than the promised limit of $50 for internet overages and I reached out via chat. I was promised a $100 credit on March 25th to be applied to my account with 48 hours. I even had to be placed on hold while it was approved by a supervisor. 

Then I get a message last week saying I'm $100 overdue and my service will be shut off if it isn't paid a week before my due date of the 25th. I call in to have this adjusted and the agent assures me this will be handled. He then opens a ticket which I did not get to be a part to see what was said and I wake up today to a denial of the credit with zero explanation. 

I've literally been lied to by 3 agents in a row. I have the chat transcript from my promised credit that was allegedly approved by a supervisor. I want this addressed with a reason because I am so exhausted of the hours and hours customer service agents take on the chat here.

Hello, @user_x3rz19 how are you? Hopefully overall your week is going well. I know things will get better once we resolve your data usage and billing concerns. There are a few things we want to double-check. For data usage information and frequently asked questions we can use this article. https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/data-usage-exceed-usage. Once 1.2 TBs of data are used blocks 0f 50 GBs are billed at $10 each and the maximum charge is $100 a month. Were you charged more than $100? If not, this may be why the credit request was not finalized. 

 

 

Something else that comes to mind is adding unlimited data or xFi Complete onto the account. Have you already added this service, or have you considered taking advantage of unlimited data?

I was told upon changing my plan that I was never to be charged more than $50 in overages. I was never provided with new terms and out of the blue, I started getting charged more. This was acknowledged during my chat on the 25th of March. Is it OK for Xfinity to just change their mind on a credit already approved by a supervisor? I have the chat transcript of my initial exchange of what I was promised. 

I've been with Xfinity for almost 20 years and this level of customer service via chat has become so unreliable that we can't trust promises made by the company's own employees?

user_x3rz19 not only do we want to provide you with the best possible support, so we can turn things around. But we want to confirm the information you need to know. This article will confirm how data usage works and how it's billed. That way we have those facts! Also, if we add unlimited data mid-month this will cover any overages. That's why I was wondering if it was added. 

 

In general, we don’t tend to provide credits and adjustments for data usage since we offer a courtesy month and several resources that assist with managing data usage. But we know unexpected things happen, especially if there’s miscommunication. We can take a closer look at your chat and see what we can do. Send us a direct message, so we can take a closer look at your account details. You can use the Direct Messaging icon at the top of the page to send your name and service address to "Xfinity Support." It's next to the bell icon on the right side of the page.
