scam or real xfinity call?

 I got a call in voice mail from a number saying my discount on my XFinity plan was about to expire if I didn't call back at this number: [Edited: "Personal Information"]. I'm highly suspicious (for one thing, when the last one was about to get a price increase, I had no such warning.) Is this a scam?  A reverse phone lookup shows that number doesn't exist.   But how can I know, when I can't find a REAL Xfinity number to call and ask someone?

I got a call to my mobile # on 12.09.2024 at 07:46 from [Edited: "Invalid Phone Number"]

Transcription...

"Hello, this is Comcast Xfinity. We are notifying you that your 50 % discount on your monthly bill will be removed at the end of today to ensure your current rate stays active call the number on your caller ID immediately thank you...."

I blocked the # but saved the vm.

Thank you for sharing you also got this message, @Alyssa89! This is a scam call that our teams are aware of. Our Customer Security Assurance team works to prevent things like this from happening. They provide an Alerts page with any scams we are aware of. You can also reach out to the team at 1-800-XFINITY (1-800-934-6489) by requesting CSA to report calls like this. You did the right thing by reaching out to us directly instead of responding to the voicemail.
