Comcast is becoming way too expensive.
My bill is now $80 more than what my previous plan I chose the last time I upgraded it. My plan page literally says "$130 a month" yet my bill is $211. And now the cost is going to up an additional $20+ in January 2024?
In addition, I am using my own Modem and Wifi Mesh Routers, and apparently that disqualifies me from using Unlimited Internet now, which I've reached the cap for last month and almost there this month. Comcast wants $30 more for me using my own gear? Seriously?
So by this logic, my new bill could be $270 or more after taxes/fees, for something I originally signed up for at $130.
How are you going to remain competitive? I am seriously considering switching for a fiber competitor. It's UNLIMITED and 2X faster with 10X faster upload seeds for half the price, and streaming TV plans are also cheaper with more options.

I agree with the topic of this post... My bill is also way too expensive, especially when you took INSP and put it somewhere else and then dropped FETV, two of my most-watched channels.

Well i managed to get a new better deal. Keep my house phone, 2000mpbs, no cable, instead they gave me XUMO. for a total of 150 a month.
Just gotta talk with the right folks. Someone from chat hook me up with this great better deal.

My God! My bill has increased $80 in January... [Edit] Language.. $303/month.. I don't even use my phone or cable box anymore! I'll downgrade a bit of my internet to pay $260/mo less with TMobile (and I know it works, thanks to their free trial!)

This is happening to me now as well. I have the most basic of internet choices because I cannot afford more easily. It started as $19.99 a month with a deal for a year, then went up to $30 I believe. Reasonable enough I suppose, though the speed is barely 75mbps (though of course it says up to 150 on the other screen it's never ever that fast). Then went up to $35. I'll deal with it. Now all of a sudden, without any email of warning that I can recall, it's $54. For the most basic "package" available.
This is the last straw. It has always been a fight with Xfinity and comcast, but I didn't have any other options in my area. Now guess what? [Edited: "Solicitation"]
Sad but not surprised to know other people are dealing with the same issues.

I saw this comment and I thought my bill has increased too from $167 to $270 in a year 1/2. If I go back to when I first got this service it was $119 a month in 2017. The Xfinity rep says it’s because I’m not currently on a contract, really. Then he stated in order to keep what I got on a contract it would be $278 plus fees and taxes but at least I’ll be locked in for the next 2 years, really. I’m looking for a lower bill. Well this is all lies and nothing truth. Every agent I’ve called has a different spill and nobody cares to try to resolve anything, there is never any decent promotions or any discounts available. I’m paying a month’s grocery bill or a whole car note in cable just cable and have the highest speed and they have had to come to my house on numerous occasions because I continue to get poor service. My modem and cable box has been changed several times not to mention new wires. This is so wrong on so many levels. I need to drop Xfinity altogether and they need to refund me for all the years I’ve paid for poor service. Xfinity is making billions off of its customers already and then continue to raise prices. When is it going to be about the customer and not greed???
