$200 Amazon gift card

I signed up for Xfinity internet on Dec 11 2024. I recently moved and had to change internet providers i saw that Xfinity was having a promo sign up and get $200 Amazon gift card so i did i signed up for the most expensive plan and once i signed up boom no mention of that card ever came up again nowhere to he found. I saw that somebody here had the same issue and i saw Xfinity commented and had a link about how to check the status on it so i checked the status and it says no record found and i have had my service for 2 weeks now and nothing showed up. This is really messed up. There needs to be more clarification and cant be lying to us like this. I was on the phone with customer care and they tried so hard to convince me it was my fault i didn't get the card and that i was not gonna get it please be more clear and dont lie to your customers like this. I am very upset i don't even care about the gift card at this point im more upset that i was lied to and made feel like i was tricked and used. That is a very messed up feeling.

Ok I spent 2 hours on live chat trying to explain the problem and getting the run around. Their customer service is beyond deplorable. Went to a local store and they were unable or unwilling to offer any help and referred me to online again.

This is the transcript from my chat today:

@user_lrigwz​ Amazing, thanks for sharing. I thought it was just me that has wasted hours & hours chatting with Xfinity customer service that repeatedly promises to help and never does.  I've seen dozens if not a hundred similar complaints about this same $200 Amazon gift card promo on Comcast's own forum pages.  Comcast HAS to know about it but is denying the promo ever existed.  It's been about 20 days since my ticket was opened and I haven't heard a word back and nothing in the rewards tracker.  This company is deplorable and I'm going to make sure everyone I know hears how difficult Comcast is to deal with.

Hi bradleyt,

I followed up in our direct messages yesterday. When you have a moment, you can follow up there. We have worked with many customers recently who had their status updated and received Amazon cards. That said, in those cases, we can confirm it was part of their agreement when signing up. We aren't able to provide the offer if it wasn't linked to their agreement upon sign-up, or didn't sign up as new customers.

I've been trying for over 2 months get confirmation the $200 Amazon gift card is on it's way, and instead got confirmation it is not (despite repeated reassurances to the contrary from Comcast reps).  DO NOT TRUST COMCAST.  The phone and chat reps will lie and reassure you, just to get you off the phone.  The store reps told me the reps have ZERO accountability, and that COMCAST does not stand behind what they promise.  What a messed-up way to do business - Switch & Bait, Gas Light, and DENY DENY DENY.

Information about the $200 Amazon Gift Card [Credit to @XfinityAirelle]:

It's a real thing, but you have to wait 90 days from the time you start service and you can't make any changes to your plan.  After the 90 days, you should expect the card to come within 4-6 weeks.

I’m currently dealing with the same issue.. started my service 12/14/24 with the $200 amazon promo offer in my order confirmation email.

its been well past the 2-4 weeks and each time I contacted chat support they said it would be 40 days, after the 40 days another agent said they would be emailing it over but never did.

finally got ahold of a person on the phone who is denying anything about gift cards saying it’s a scam email…

a scam email that came directly from Xfinity with all of my personal information about my plan, taxes, add ons? This is getting out of hand

Well at long last I after what seemed like endlessly getting the run around I was put in touch with someone at comcast executive support but only after filing a complaint through my states AG. Almost immediately I received an email from comcast support to look into the issue snd within a few days got an email with my redemption code for the Amazom $200 gift card.

It seems that now that this promotion is happening again, the chat agents are able to issue the gift card. The issue I was having before was that I was lied to and told this promotion didn't exist. But now it's plainly on their website, you can get it if you ask for "billing rewards" department. Or at least.......that's what I've been told. I will report back in 7 days when they inevitably do not actually send it to me :)

I am sorry you were told the promotion did not exist but it was an online only promotion therefore any agent looking at your account would not have access to this promotion to offer. It just did not exist on our end since it was online only. I will follow up after the weekend to check in.

I tried calling Xfinity customer service and they put me on hold....  and when they did instead of coming back the phone an automated voice came on saying the number that was associated with whom they were trying to connect me to had Changed, and gave me the other number for "Xfinity rewards"! So I hung up and called the number.. someone answered and asked what company I was calling about after I explained to them and they said they weren't even associated with the company (Xfinity)🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️ so I just hung up and a few minutes later I got an email confirmation about my account and all the details and it says that I won't get it until after 90 days of having the service

Good evening user_wctzse thank you so much for taking the time to reach out and adding your experience to this conversation. When you have a promotion that includes a prepaid card, we do have specific terms/conditions. 

 

Xfinity-FAQs about Prepaid Card Offers

 

The gift card eligibility period is 90 days from service activation, and than an additional 4-8 weeks to receive the reward via email or physical card. The card option is only done if no verified email is on file.

You are a liar and Xfinity should be embarrassed! First it was 4 weeks then 6 weeks then 90 days then 16 weeks and now additional 4-8 weeks after. No where does it say this. I was told on day 1 when I signed up it was 4 weeks and I even took a screenshot then when I didnt get it and wrote in again and the rules changed again. You guys are liars and scammers.

I recently had my fiber line installed and connected. The employee mentioned to me the $200 incentive for Amazon giftcard and I thought I would use it to purchase a router which is why it was so important for me to get. I have no email mentioning any incentives, just payments due once installation was completed. I'm curious now if I'm waiting for something or if I too was just fed a bunch of lies. The "chat bot" assistant is about the most useless and frustrating thing I've ever dealt with so I know I cannot use that to solve this issue.

I've also tried to get into the "Email direct-messaging" but all of the links send me to the support pages.... This is obviously [Edited: Language] and the customer service so far before AND after having the internet installed has been atrocious. I can't imagine I stay with this service once another one comes into the area.

I will be submitting a complaint on the BBB if this cannot be resolved in a relatively timely manner.

I activated gigabit Internet service on 12/16/2024 and was promised a $200 Amazon gift card as a promotion.

I have not received an update since, and customer service has not been helpful.

What should I do?

Just an update - I filed an FCC Complaint because that was the only way to get someone who actually had access to the area I needed. He could not help me. He said he cannot issue gift cards and it had been too long. So XFINITY just lied to people about this promo and there is nothing that they can do to make it right.

So sorry you (we) have to go through all of this, just to try to get what was promised. Shame on Xfinity. All we are asking is to be treated fairly and with respect.

Same thing happened to me, I signed up to Xfinity home internet back in December 2024 and was supposed to get that $200 Amazon gift card, I still have screenshots for that promotion by the way because I felt like it could be a catch later on and here we are… I talked to Xfinity customer service two times and both times they said they submitted a ticket for me but still I haven’t heard back from them, I’m very disappointed since I really like Xfinity, maybe I should’ve stayed with my previous internet company as they always respected the promotions…

@user_lj3jt1​you should keep trying if you have the energy you are entitled to what you signed up for.

I was repeatedly told they could do nothing for me because they found nothing in the terms I signed up for

This was even after I pointed out: There was no possible way I hadn't signed up for the correct plan.

I can't count the number of times they repeated that there was nothing they could do. It wasn't in my terms.

They finally escalated it and after about a week they reported it resolved and sent me my gift card

Same issue with me and agent said i know its a cheating wow

I subscribed to the 500 Mbps plan based on the promise of receiving a $100 Amazon gift card, as stated in your promotion. However, despite fulfilling all requirements, I have yet to receive it.

When I contacted your support team, an agent admitted that this was misleading—essentially confirming that customers are being deceived. This is completely unacceptable. If I had known this, I would have chosen Metronet’s fiber plan, which provides better service and actually honors its promotions.

I expect an immediate resolution and the fulfillment of the promised $100 Amazon gift card. Please escalate this matter if necessary and provide a clear response on how you will address this issue.

Looking forward to your prompt action.
