Urgent Complaint: Misleading Promises, Financial Damage

Dear Xfinity,

I’m reaching out with deep frustration, anger, and disappointment. What began as a conversation to lower my bill has turned into a nightmare that has financially impacted my family and left us with unresolved service issues — all due to misinformation and broken promises from your team.

On April 13, Xfinity contacted me to discuss reducing my bill. During the chat, a representative offered to switch my mobile service from Verizon to Xfinity Mobile. I explained — clearly and multiple times — that I still owed money on tree iPhones. The agent asked for the balance and after I provided the information, I was repeatedly promised that Xfinity would cover the full remaining balances if I switched that day. I confirmed several times, asking, “Will the entire balance of all four phones be paid?” Each time, I was told yes — not to worry, that it would be taken care of.

Trusting your representative’s repeated assurances, I switched. But shortly afterward, I was shocked to see that Verizon charged me $2,332.89 for the remaining device balances — money I was promised would be covered by Xfinity.

That charge hit my bank account directly. Because my Verizon login was deactivated during the port-out, I had no warning. And now, my family is suddenly responsible for a bill we were explicitly told would be paid by Xfinity.

Since the switch, I’ve contacted Xfinity multiple times — through calls and chats — trying to get help. I’ve received excuse after excuse, new stories, and conflicting information. in the third try I was promissed again that in 7 days, Xfinity will send me a card with the full amount to pay the Verizon bill. The card never arrived and in my last call, I was told the reimbursement was denied, with no explanation.

This situation is outrageous. I feel I was deliberately misled by your representative, and now I’m stuck with a huge, unexpected financial burden and deteriorated internet service. I’ve been a loyal Verizon customer for over 9 years, and I’ve never felt so deceived or mistreated.

I am demanding immediate action from your team to fully reimbursement or credit for the $2,332.89 Verizon charge that I was promised would be covered. (you have all the details and the bill in the email I sent on April 29th.)


If this matter is not resolved quickly and professionally, I will file formal complaints with the FCC, BBB, and the California Attorney General’s Office. I am attaching all supporting documentation, including billing records and prior communications.

This isn’t just poor customer service — it’s unethical. Your company made promises. Now it’s time to honor them.

While I can appreciate you wanting to keep the community up-to-date on your post, @user_twxvg1, please be mindful of what I provided earlier. We are a team, working together to answer every customer reaching out at any given moment, and we appreciate your patience between responses (which will not always be "instant.")

And will pick back up, directly in our private thread, as soon as we can. Keep in mind that you are welcome to leave this chat and return at a later time if necessary. Thanks again for waiting.
