$200 amazon gift card

I signed up for the 1200 gigabit internet for the $200 amazon gift card incentive on 12/22. I was told in 2 weeks from when i activated the service i would see it on my incentive tracker and it isn’t there and no emails either. i also have not received my mobile prepaid cards to pay my old carrier.

Did you notice there are multiple posts from different users in recent weeks who are not seeing this yet?

yes but all the reps are telling me it’s a scam… there’s no way. it was on the xfinity website.

Mine was supposed to be sent yesterday but the incentive tracker still shows pending fulfillment eligibility.

@user_napsa1​ Really? I’m so highly confused! I’d love to know more about this because the escalated situation representative told me there’s no such thing and that it’s an ongoing scam. And it was obviously on the xfinity site.

I have the same exact problem. Signed up with the same promotion on Black Friday (11/29/24) activated 1Gb internet service the next day (11/30).  I called Comcast 3 weeks later threatening to cancel because I never received anything in writing or mail confirming the $200 Amazon gift card promo.  I said I was willing to cancel service during my first 30 days, take my equipment back to the store, and sign-up again just get confirmation in writing that I'd get the $200 reward.  The phone rep read the rules for the promo and REPEATEDLY assured me based on the dates of ordering service (and signing up online) that I qualified and would automatically receive the reward 2-4 weeks after signing up, so she said to wait the full 4 weeks and was confident I'd then receive the reward by email.  She said if there's any problem, this was a recorded line.  But apparently no one has access to review a COMCAST recorded line.


Six weeks after installing service, on 1/9/25, I chatted with customer service online through the Xfinity App.  The rep REPEATEDLY promised me it wasn't a problem and that my $200 would be waiting for me in my local Xfinity Store.  After (purportedly) getting that settled, the chat rep also promised me a COMPLETELY Free (after taxes & shipping) iPad 10th Gen with no service fees for 2 years.  I thought it was too good to be true, and it was.  The day after it arrived (at the wrong location - I was supposed to pick it up in the store), I saw a new $65 monthly charge in my Xfinity acct.  I went to my local Xfinity Store to confirm what I was promised, but was sent away, to the next town over, because my local store where the chat rep told me to go was not a "company" store.  The next day I went to the company store further from my house.  Not only was there NO $200 AMAZON card waiting for me, but they told me there was absolutely no promotion whatsoever on the iPad in my account so that I would be responsible for $499 for it + $20 monthly service, locked in for 2 years.  I immediately returned the iPad.  The local Xfinity store said they couldn't help with the promised $200 Amazon reward.  They didn't even believe me that it was ever a promo, but I was able to pull up dozens and dozens of others complaining about the same promotion on Xfinity's own website on my phone.  After 30 minutes of the store looking into it, they gave up and told me to call Xfnity customer service again.  I asked if they could pull up the chat to confirm was I was promised.  They said there is no way to do so, and that Xfnity online chat reps will say anything and promise everything to customers because they have "no accountability" and there is no way to follow up on what was promised.  I then realized that unlike most other company's online chat customer service, Comcast does NOT provide customers the opportunity to request an email copy of the chat conversation.  That is a HORRIBLE business model that I am going to do everything I can to expose by posting my experience everywhere I can.


I called Xfinity Customer Service on the way home.  A very sympathetic & understanding phone rep created a "ticket" for me, but she couldn't do more because the "escalation" team had just closed for the night. 
I called the next day to the rewards redemption number as instructed, but they couldn't find any reference to the ticket No.  They looked up my account and confirmed there was NO promotion gift card on my account but promised to look into it in 7-10 days.  I have zero faith I will hear anything since I have been repeatedly DECEIVED by Comcast over the past 7 weeks.  I have had problems redeeming rewards with AT&T and Verizon in the past but they ALWAYS immediately resolved them.  This has been the WORST experience I've ever gone through attempting to redeem a promotion.
