Was lied to by 3 chat agents who told me my payment arragement date was extended from Jan 11th to Jan 20th

Hello, 

I have a payment arrangement set up for Jan,11 2025, but my car was broken into today and my wallet stolen so I am unable to pay without my debit card. Also I dont have access to pay with checking account. So I chatted with THREE different chat agents who all said they could extend the payment date from Jan 11 2025 to Jan 20 2025...they each said I would receive a conformation email...which I never did. I called customer service who keeps saying they can not extend the date...and when I tell them that THREE chat agents told me it was already extended and try to provide the transcripts for the chat they HANG UP ON ME.....This is awful....XFINITY does not stand by their agents and do not stand by their word......THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED....

Hello, @user_qfm1ww! Thank you for taking the time to visit our Xfinity Community Forum, and for posting this billing concern regarding a previous payment arrangement and discussions you've since had through the Xfinity Assistant. I'm sorry to hear about the trouble you've had, especially with the loss of your wallet, and I'd love to see what our team can do to help! We're awesome to work with because we'll always do everything we can to review and resolve issues quickly. Typically, customers need to set up their own payment arrangements online as seen here. However, there may be cases where we can manually extend dates as mentioned through chat. One problem to keep in mind, even when our intentions are good, is that our billing system runs automated audits which can remove those manual arrangements, interrupting service once again because the account technically doesn't qualify for an extension of the original payment arrangement date. That being said, we'd be happy to double-check for you today! Could you please send our team a direct message to continue?
