Incorrectly sent to collections

Hello I really need someone’s help. My account was recently closed in August 2022 and while waiting for a pending credit I was sent to collections. I was told I was only responsible for $50 after returning my equipment and to wait for a new invoice to pay it. I called I several times but kept getting the run around. I logged into the chat but it timed out several times waiting for a live agent. I updated my new address but I never received the new invoice in the mail. I just paid the $50 and but sure enough today it showed as a ding on my credit report right before I was going or make an offer on a condo. I have worked very hard on my credit the past 7 years and it was flawless and now it has all come crashing down. I already paid the remaining $160 balance through the xfinity app but I need to get the collection removed from credit report in order to save my new mortgage. I spent all day getting transferred around on the phone and I can’t seem to get anyone that understands my issue and I always get transferred and then disconnected. Who can I speak to about this issue? I really need your help I was given some bad information and not I’m in a really bad spot. Please help me.

Hello @user_55b984! I'm so sorry you're having issues with this bill being on your credit report. If this was sent to collections then you'd have to reach out to the collection agency that now holds the debt. Were you able to get a hold of them? They'll usually be listed on your credit report as well as contact info.

@XfinityAntoine​ I have reached out to them several times. They said they are happy to remove it because of the $0 balance but it has to come from Comcast / Xfinity. Is there anyone at Xfinity I can talk to about this? When I call the phone # I keep getting transferred and dropped and the person or the other end doesn’t seem to understand my issue. 

To be clear the collection company you work with sent this account to the collection agencies with a $0 balance. Unheard of.

@user_55b984 We can certainly look into this further with you. If you could please send a direct message with your name and complete service address. 

To send a "Direct Message" to Xfinity Support:

Click "Sign In" if necessary

Click the "Direct Messaging" icon or https://comca.st/3EqVMu7

Click the "New message" (pencil and paper) icon

The "To:" line prompts you to "Type the name of a person". Instead, type "Xfinity Support" there

 - As you are typing a drop-down list appears. Select "Xfinity Support" from that list

 - An "Xfinity Support" graphic replaces the "To:" line

Type your message in the text area near the bottom of the window

Press Enter to send it

I no longer work for Comcast.
