Hello, and thank you for reaching out for help with your payments. We understand there will be times when extra time is needed to make a payment. We make it easy to check for and set up an arrangment. You have reached the right team for help. 

Set Up a Payment Arrangement for Your Xfinity Balance

Payment arrangements allow you to pay off a past-due balance on a convenient date while allowing you to continue enjoying your Xfinity services.

Set Up a Payment Arrangement

If you need more time to pay your past due balance – and if you’re eligible for our flexible payment options – you’ll see a card when you sign in to your Xfinity account with the option to chat with us.
  1. To set up a payment arrangement with Xfinity Assistant, click Chat for options.
  2. In your chat with Xfinity Assistant, select Set up a payment arrangement.
  3. Xfinity Assistant will explain your payment arrangement enrollment options.
    • Here are some things to keep in mind:
      • You may be eligible to choose your payment arrangement date and add a payment method later.
      • You won’t be able to make video On Demand and pay per view (PPV) purchases until your payment processes.
      • If you cancel your payment arrangement, or if your payment can’t be processed, your service will be suspended.
  4. If you’re adding a payment method later, continue to set up your payment arrangement with Xfinity Assistant by choosing a due date and clicking Submit.
    Screenshot of the calendar where you can choose a date for a later payment. The calendar is a week-view, set up Sunday through Saturday.. The Submit button is in the lower left corner.

  5. You’ll see a confirmation with a reminder to add a payment method to your payment arrangement by the scheduled due date.

Furthermore, you can also change your due date here: 

How To Move Your Bill's Monthly Due Date

Are you an Xfinity Home, Xfinity Internet, Xfinity TV, and/or Xfinity Voice customer and need to change the monthly due date for your bill? You can do so online from your account. Read below to get started. At this time, Xfinity Mobile customers are unable to change their monthly due date.


 

Note: To be eligible for moving your bill’s due date, you must have completed at least one billing cycle, and your bill must not be currently past due. Once you change your bill’s due date, you will need to stay in that cycle for at least six months.

Before you get started changing your due date, here are a few things to keep in mind:

  • You can choose a new bill due date online on xfinity.com or in the Xfinity app for mobile.
    • You may be asked to sign in using your Xfinity ID and password.
  • Your account must be up to date, with no overdue balances.
  • Changing your due date won't cause late fees.
  • After you make the request to change your due date, you can check its progress on xfinity.com.
  • Your next bill may come sooner or later than normal.
    • This is a "transition" bill and may be higher or lower than a normal bill.
  • Your new due date takes effect on the second bill after your request is completed.
  • If you have automatic payments set up, they'll automatically update to match your new due date.
  • The change needs to be made by the person in the home with the "primary" username Xfinity ID (usually who your account is under).
  • If you are an existing customer who recently moved, you will get a new account and will need to go through at least one billing cycle before changing your bill’s due date.

If you don’t need instructions, go right to choosing a new due date for your bill on xfinity.com.
