$100 service fee... just for re-connecting my remote to my box... never informed about the fee... THIS IS A RIP-OFF!!!

I requested a technician visit cause my remote can not connect to my system. When I called for the service, I was never informed by customer service that the charge is $100. When the technician visited, he never mentioned about a service fee. He was there for about 5 minutes max, just to re-program my remote & to think it was Xfinity who caused the problem in the first place. The fee is ridiculous for such service & this is a total RIP-OFF!!! I want a refund!!!

@user_dp​ Yes I followed the instructions but there is no "direct message" icon. I also tried to chat with a representative & they gave me a reference number but still no refund, not even a partial refund. The charge is just too much for a reboot. The tech stayed about 5 minutes & what's worse both the customer service rep & the tech never mentioned any service charge. Total rip-off.

I am using a laptop. I chatted with customer support way back June20 & he gave me reference # ECM0002299558 but to this day there is no credit or adjustment on the $100 charge. So frustrating.
