Canceling my service of over 3 years after being refused $300 prepaid Visa

I've had enough of Xfinity Mobile and I am canceling my service with them after they refuse to give me my $300 prepaid Visa.

I ordered a new iPhone 13 Pro Max in early October after I saw that I would receive a $300 prepaid Visa for upgrading. My previous phone was paid off through them. The phone arrived defective so I had to exchange it.

3 months later, I still didn't have my prepaid Visa card. I have been checking in with support the last month or so and I was always assured that I'd be getting the card. I recently reached out to support again only to be told that I did not qualify for the prepaid Visa since I exchanged phones. 

How does this make sense? You send me a defective phone, which I had to exchange, and now I'm not eligible for the prepaid Visa. Yet, in 2019, my first Xr was defective and I exchanged it no problem and still received the $200 prepaid Visa.

@XfinityAnna​ Still no help. I reached out to Xfinity Support like you asked and they told me they cannot help since it's a mobile issue. They gave me the number of support, which is the same number I've called countless times with no success. Please advise.

Wonderful. The same number I've called several times and no one helps. Seems about on par with Xfinity as a whole.

@CJM1987 You don't get that reward card right away.  If your transaction was made in October, you should just now be at the end of the qualifying period.

Please keep in mind if you are qualified for a Visa gift card, you must :
 
  • Sign up for a qualifying plan
  • Have services installed within 30 days of order date
  • Accept the 24-month agreement
  • Maintain minimum level of services with no outstanding balances for at least 90 days from service   installation (No upgrading or downgrading services)
  • Also, account must be in good payment standing   (NO LATE PAYMENTS)
 
Once these requirements are met, you are fully qualified for the gift card. Your Visa gift card will be processed within sixteen (16) weeks from your completed Triple Play installation. After it’s processed, it can take an additional eight (8) weeks to be mailed. You can expect to receive the card within 20-24 weeks of installation.

I considering taking Xfinity to small claims court on the grounds of deception that's stated by the Federal trades Commission. Full Disclosure was not exercised at the point of sale and because of that I have not received two $200 prepaid visa cards that was part of a BYO promotion that ended in November 2021. My sales rep's name was Rajat.

I brought my wife and daughter's number onto my account, my daughter had an iPhone 8 and wife an iPhone X. My wife's phone was not compatible with xfinity, so the sales rep suggested buying my wife a new device and I asked if I do that I wouldn't qualify for the $200 visa, so I asked if I could upgrade my device to the 13 pro max and give her my iPhone 11 pro and get the $200 for that since I was porting her in and he said yes. The terms of the promo was to keep my account in good standings for 90 days which I did and received notice that I satisfied the promotion which was on March 13th 2022. A few days later I checked back into the incentive website to get an ETA on the cards and the notice was no longer there. I've called in several times about this and have been given the run around. As I'm typing this I've been on the phone for just about 2 hours trying to get this resolved. I've included all proof including this current phone call.

So the hang up is that the device I used for my wife's line which was my old device that I fully purchased through xfinity could not be used because of it coming from a previous promotion which I was not informed of at the point of sale and as I posted above, the sales rep Rajat said that I could. Now two whole months after i satisfied the promotion I'm told that I don't qualify. I'm taking these measures to ensure that the right thing is honored.
