Xfinity Support Chat Rampant [Edited]

It looks like this is happening all the time, so I'll share my story too.

I had my internet under my account, but my landlord/roommate wanted a faster connection. So, we agreed to disconnect my account and upgraded with his account since the agent on the phone said I won't get charged with an early termination fee. 

But then I got a bill for about $100 for early termination.

I disputed it with a support agent and he reduced the bill to $50. He also said that he opened a ticket to help resovle the rest. The due date came so I got charged $52.80. I  went back to the chat and the agent told me that he issued a refund. Several days later, no refund. I went back to the chat severarl times in the course of two weeks, but they kept saying the same thing.

So I make to this forum, and the agents here are telling me something else:

This experience has left a really bad taste in my.

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

Had you transferred your service over, you wouldn't have gotten an ETF and your landlord could have made changes to the account and upgraded the speed to what he wanted.  Any time you cancel an account early and are in an agreement you will get an ETF.

That's the thing. When the agent on the phone told me that I wasn't going to get charged, I should have asked him to send me an email so I'll have it in writing. 

Legally, is xfinity is right. But morally, they became an entity that I now distrust.

Don't distrust the entity.  Always question multiple times the CSR.  Yes, getting an email confirmation would have been best, but since you didn't it was obviously on the CSR who either didn't know the rules or didn't care [and that happens a lot unfortunately].  I am sorry this happened, though. 

And now you know you can come here to ask pertinent questions!  🙂
