Internet bill is suddenly become high

All of a sudden, I started seeing $42 increase in my bill due to some promotion ended for which I was never informed on beforehand by email, mail or any kind of notification from them plus additional $4 increase in the billing because Xfinity has upgraded their systems and they want to lute(i.e compensate) their operational costs(basically upgrades to their system) for which I am NOT going to extra 1mbps high speed as part of my internet plan.

Some maths here, 3% increase of the original bill($4 in my case) is announced by Xfinity and with approx of 10M subscribers, xfinity is going to get

10M * 12months * 3%(min 4$ I am on a medium speed plan) = $480M which is wow. Xfinity charges their customers for their systems that got upgraded and they got new infrastructure established i.e basically should be covered by Xfinity operational cost.

@kbharath, thank you for taking the time to reach our to us using the Xfinity Community Forums page. I know how important a manageable bill is as a consumer myself. We can review your options to lower the monthly balance together. I will say, we have sent out information regarding potential changes in pricing with the new year coming in. Do you receive your bills paperless?

I have internet services, 2 mobile line services, streaming service and have been with xfinity for last 5yrs but you still guys don't have any promotions for your loyal customers. Also Can you explain as why there is 3% increase in new year bills? Why do customers have to pay for xfinity upgraded their system and infrastructure?

Update: I have opted for paper-less bill and NO xfinity didn't send any notification about this before.

@bp7850​ hi, I’m having similar issues myself, but you’ve posted a lot of information about yourself on a public forum, you might see about deleting that.

We have been loyal Xfinity customers even though our bill has increased by over $50 since we started with them.We have had numerous WiFi problems over the past few months which we have patiently waited for Xfinity to resolve, the last one being an hour and a half phone call to them  yesterday with no resolution from them…and a “threat” of a charge to us if they come to our house to fix the problem. Today we received a bill from them which INCREASED BY $46 FROM LAST MONTH!!..and there was no notification from them about this increase. If we cannot  get an explanation from them, better customer service....and  more importantly a reduction of our bill, we will be looking for another service to use. We are frustrated and disappointed in the service and price increases we are randomly getting from Xfinity after being loyal customers , and this is no way to run a business. When I find a new WiFi /Cable service, I will let this forum know(currently retired and have lots of time to research:)

65$ a month, same here, they say i was on a promo rate, so I asked her now that you have increased it to $111/month is this also a promo rate?, she claims no, and that i should go read my statement to find out for myself. I better not receive another increase next year, which they text me about AND they of course did not inform me about any promo rates up until now.
