HELP‼️ Just need billing help but customer service does not exist

I have been trying for 3 days to get help with a big jump on my bill this month but can't talk to anyone at Xfinity. I have been cutoff 4 times now chatting, with no attempt to reconnect with me from customer service. Phone calls only allow to schedule a call back which never comes. My 800mbs plan tops out at 100mbs on the best days, but cannot talk to anyone about it. Is there anybody out there????

Hello, @Ajt_2735! Thanks for reaching out regarding your interest in lowering your monthly cost. I know how important it is to maintain the level of service you need while managing a budget, and would be happy to help however I can! Sorry to hear about the trouble you've had reaching us. Have you checked out our Plan Builder by chance? You may also try shopping our Xfinity Deals online (just make sure to click "Sign in here" first) or simply log in to My Account and you can manage your services that way! 

 

We recommend starting online if possible since some promotions are exclusively offered online-only :) Otherwise, our team typically has access to the same options you see while logged in to your account. And keep in mind that you don't always need to make any "changes" other than selecting the same service(s) you already subscribe to, in order to see any applicable promotional rates being offered. You may just not see the total estimated monthly bill until you proceed to the order summary (before approving any changes and placing your order). Please let me know if this helps!

 

Regarding the speed concerns, these Internet Troubleshooting Tips are a great place to start! What troubleshooting steps have you taken so far?

Thank you, I will look at your online offers today. The internet speed issue has been going on for years. Technicians have been out numerous times and never solved much. Last I was told last year was it was an issue 'at the street' and contractors woukd be out to look at it sometime. Never happened to my knowledge, speeds never changed. He told me there is a 'dirty signal' at the street box. He replaced the line from box to house and changed all connectors inside but nothing changed. Just did speed test (not wifi, on computer hard wired) and got 98mbs download, 22mbs upload.

I appreciate those details, @Ajt_2735! To confirm, you have not had a Trouble Call (tech visit) since last year? Those speeds are definitely lower than expected if you're on our Superfast Internet. What troubleshooting have you recently tried (i.e. power cycling the modem, sending a reset signal with the Xfinity App, etc.)?

Yes, all that numerous times. Modem and router less than 2 years old, xfinity tech said no problems wirh them. For a while, comcast had run 2 lines from the street to house (1 for cable, 1 for internet) to try to boost signal, stayed that way for several years until another tech ran new single line year or two ago. 

Techs changed our inside cable box several times last few years to help pixelated TV pictures, and that has gotten better. But they always leave saying hiw bad our signal is out at the street box, but nobody every comes back to fix it.

Normally when there is an issue outside the house, they refer it to maintenance team. Did they ever mentioned referring this issue to the maintenance team to have them look at the outside network?

Yes, multiple times they said another team would come out to check neighborhood lines. I never saw any and nobody ever came to the door. I may have missed them, but my internet never changed much. 

The last tech was very good, he was here over an hour working on it, but finally left with a big 'sorry, I tried my best' look but he did say he elevated the problem.
