Told to not return equipment - now have a bill

Last month, I brought my modum to an Xfinity store to return as I was moving. I was told I did not need to return the modum and shown an Xfinity sticker that explicitly stated the modum did not need to be reutrned to the store. I kept receiving text messages about charges for not returning the equipment so i called customer service. Whoever i spoke to said she took care of it, i wouldnt be charged, and would stop receving text messages about the equipment not being returned. A month later, i am still recieving text messages and i now have a $150 bill for the equipment. I called customer service for the second time and was basically told there wasnt anything they could do.

@user_uiyss9 I am sorry for any confusion. If you still have the modem I suggest returning it as soon as you can to have that fee removed.

 

Luckily, we have made the process a bit easier for you. Here: https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/returning-your-equipment?linkId=85670289 are the steps to initiate a return of your equipment. We have an awesome partnership with UPS and will take care of the postage for you! 

 

You can schedule an at-home pickup by initiating the equipment return at the Digital Returns Center, printing the UPS return label, boxing up the equipment and then calling 1-800-PICK-UPS to schedule the pickup. You will need the tracking number from the UPS return label to schedule the pickup. Or you can always visit a local service center to return the boxes. If you are needing any assistance in locating a service center you can follow this link: https://www.xfinity.com/support/service-center-locations/ to locate one near you.

Returning the modum is no longer an option as i said i was moving. There has to be other options as this is not my fault nor is the confusion on my part.

Since you know that the modem was in your procession our research ticket would not be an option as that is not a selectable option. Where is the modem? @user_uiyss9
