YOUR CUSTOMER SERVICE HAS BEEN ADDING TROUBLE IN MY LIFE
Firstly, my job requires me to travel a lot, I usually would place a seasonal hold for the months I am out of the country (This has already made the contact not convenient at all because I am unable to call directly to Xfinity).
At the end of September, I have specifically requested a hold starting from Oct 2 through the chat feature, and I was told my seasonal hold would be placed on time. But when I checked the bill later in October, I noticed a regular monthly charge for October on my bill (which means the hold was not placed at all), so I complained and requested a seasonal hold AGAIN, and the agent told me not to pay the bill and he would place the seasonal hold successfully. But when I checked the bill later, my bill turned into a tremendous amount and told me my account had been disconnected for service. Now I am unable to call and chat to dispute the bill and my only option is to pay for this bill that is even not supposed to be there at the beginning.
I have asked my friend who is in the US to help me call and ask about it, they told me they would investigate it. So I waited, and the final answer they gave me was that there was no problem with the seasonal hold but because I did not pay the October bill on time?????? And the bill they sent me this month and last month still had regular monthly charges in it. I was LITERALLY SPEECHLESS.
To be clear, I will not pay for the bill that should not even be there if your customer services had been reliable. It is not my problem firsthand, I have been a loyal customer for many years. Why would I pay for your mistakes?? I would only pay for the amount that is supposed to happen (which is seasonal hold starting from Oct 2).
PLEASE HAVE SOMEONE SOLVE THIS PLEASE!!!!!
I have attached the chat transcript for reference. THANK YOU.
