4k DVR upgrade request

Has anyone else recently had issues getting the XG1v4 from xfinity?

Over the phone , I indicated that i just bought a new 4k TV, and needed to replace my currect DVR with the new 4k style tv box. They shipped me a non-X1 USED old style 2 tuner cable box. I then went to the store to see if I could swap it out , and they told me it was out of stock, and did not know when they would get any in. This is very frustating , and am thinking of switching to FIOS....

I hope David T. still works for you guys at the Danvers MA location. He was exceptional, you need to compensate your star employees appropriately so they do not go find another job. Please let his manager know what an outstanding employee he is.

I got a slightly different story - see my post in this forum on Dec 17 titled "Why can't Comcast ship 4K boxes". The Xfinity website for 4K says you can order a new box right from your 4K TV set, but this does not work.

 

I did an online chat and was told that Comcast could not ship me a 4K box, they are only available in stores. I really do not want to go to a store, given the COVID situation, and even if I did, there is no assurance that they would have a box available for me. There are no phone numbers listed for the stores near me, so I cannot call a store to verify that they have 4K boxes in stock.

 

If I did go to a store, I would certainly prefer curbside pickup. Otherwise, Comcast is putting its employees and customers at increased risk. This seems like a reasonable thing for Comcast to consider.

I ended up having to go into the retail store to get a 4k dvr box, (Thank you David T. At the Danvers location.)
The issue seems to be they don't have many boxes in stock....
