Unable to change payment method

I’ve tried changing my payment method to a different debit card and it says that payment method is declined. I got the message the first time I’ve tried inserting it, so it’s not by multiple tries. Is there a reason the card is getting declined? The service address is different than the billing address, and I made sure all the info was correct.

user_56pslm That is a good question. You might have a payment block on your account. Have you missed repeated payments recently?

Did you check with your bank to see if there was any issue on their end? Is it a new card? If so, has it been activated?

Using the Xfinity App:

1. Open the app and log in with your Xfinity ID.

2. Tap the Account tab at the bottom of the screen.

3. Select Bill details under the account balance section.

4. Tap Bill settings in the payment section, then choose Payment methods.

5. Select Add Payment Method to enter your new credit/debit card or bank account.

6. Confirm your identity with the 6-digit verification code sent to your trusted contact method.

7. Enter your card/bank details, agree to the terms, and tap Save.

8. You can then toggle on Autopay should you choose to.

 

If that doesn't work we may need to check the account for anything preventing it.
