Xfinity over charging and won’t honor promised bill price

Xfinity did not notify me that my promotional price was ending and have been charging me $111 a month for the past few months. I have been dealing with them for over a month stating that they will be fixing my bill. It never gets fixed. Last Friday 1/5/2024 the person on the live agent chat stated that they would only charge me $20.07 and this would be reflected on my end within 24 hours. Shocker. It was not and they tried to charge my card $225. I just spent 2 hours on the phone with them being transferred 5 different times for them to tell me this conversation does not exist even though I have screenshots of the total I was supposed to be paying. Their resolution was to go into the store. [Edited: "Language"] I am about to cancel all of my services with them.

Concern moved here to the Billing help section for greater exposure to Comcast corporate employees (The Digital Care Team) for assistance.

Spent all day on the phone and on the below advise to just "chat" with a digital care team. They have been charging me for a Premier Double Play for two years and now that thats over my bill is almost $300! Have never had what was supposed to be included in this plan including the peacock premier. They "say" that I do have it and I know that I have been watching my first program ever on Peacock that I ask through the search mode on my TV with xfinity. Always, the 50 to 60 minute commercials that are Not peacock premium. They keep saying that I do have it and I know I do not! Dont get me started on how slow my 1000 Gigibit internet is.... On and off all the time and most of the time slower than slow...

And no I am Not going into one of their stores! Wow!

It is happening to every person that I know in my local area. No joke! I wonder how many years they have been doing this….probably even before the “covid fog”

Xfinity is just one of the many major money making companies taking advantage of people and their trustworthiness that they are supplying what you are paying for…. Criminal mischievous if you ask me.

Most people will never know and just pay their bills.

the

The people that do notice are smart enough and/or have the time to notice the this company (and others) know that most of them will Not say a word and these types of companies bank on that.
If you do speak up, they will say “no,no” you are wrong even and they have a big chance that you will pay up to “make them go away “

Reminds me of a bully move…

Xfinity does notify customers of bill changes - in the notes on the billing statement.  The onus is on you to read that statement beyond what you owe and when it's due. 

Also, you should never not pay a bill in dispute; once the dispute is resolved you would get a refund to your account.

I did not receive a statement and that is s just part of the problem here. I was just calling to make sure about the extremely high bill. I found the rest of it out by your staff on the phone, chat, and actually printing out my online bill to look at the fine print. You all told yourself as I spoke to four different staff members including supposedly two managers. Not..just sells men trying sell me that I DO have peacock prime and all the stuff I’ve been pasting $1000s of dollars for over the years. 
I know TV lol
