Awful and Untrained Service

How is this the only method to escalate a complaint? Is it so far removed that we can barely talk to a human let alone someone trained. 

Firstly your AI assistant programming is awful. Tech issues should never be handled by such a poorly written LLM. It froze on giving me the same answer for five straight minutes. And it could not tell me why it wasn’t able to proceed. Then I immediately ask to be transferred to an actual human. 

But then your god awful service continues. I am connected to someone presumably in another country. I can tell from the naming and cookie cutter responses they are using that did not come across as normal conversational English. Now I have no problem with overseas support if they ACTUALLY KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING! But here they clearly did not. I went through 4 different individuals over 3 hours who only made the problem worse. I simply had one device connectivity issue to start and they proceeded to take down the whole router and leave it inoperative. I never once was connected to someone who knew what they were doing even though I requested escalation. And your individuals would just drop from

chat randomly after continuing to [Edited: "Language"] things up. 

seriously get your service fixed. Because you waste my working time trying to fix your system issues on a BRAND NEW ROUTER. Or we’ll just seriously consider going to your competitors. I know AT&T has great offers in our area too. 

but at a minimum I would expect direct contact with a person of no less than district/senior management level in the Houston area as your product and service right now is complete and utter bollux.

We appreciate you reaching out to us over our Community Forums, we would be more than happy to help! I do apologize you were unsuccessful getting assistance over the phone with our automated system, or the phone technicians. This is not the experience we want for our members at all. 

Just so the Community can have a better understanding of your needs, and so we can get you pointed in the right direction can you provide a summary on the connection concerns you are having?

@XfinityMartyR​ new router was installed last week. All devices connected normally that same day with no issue. 

However, the following morning both computers running Windows had to be manually reconnected to the router. Main PC is being forced to reconnect to the router every time the PC is restarted or turned off. PC (operating on Windows 11) detects WiFi connection but is not allowed to connect to the internet. It simply returns “No Internet, Secured”. Then one must disconnect and reconnect to the same WiFi for the next 5-15 minutes until the WiFi network actually lets the pc connect. 

confirmed this not an issue with the PC’s adapter as it can connect to other devices acting as hotspots with connection occurring instantly upon password recognition.

user_53wpdr  Thank you for the additional information! If you have upgraded to the Xfinity XB8 Gateway, your devices, and especially a PC may need updated WiFi drivers. The XB8 has new WiFi 6 technology, and if the drivers on your PC have not been updated, there would be some connection issues for sure. Here is an online article that talks about updating the drivers.
