charged my card for an apple watch without my consent!!

I contacted xfinity via chat because i had a serious issue with my mobile service - i wasnt receving any text messages. The chat agent instead of assisting with my issue kept sending me pictures of apple watches, i stated that im not interested very clearly multiple times and they disconnected the chat and not only did not help me but placed a apple watch order on my behalf and charged my card for it anyway. Then i proceeded to make multiple phone calls that in total was around 8 hours of my time. Each time i was reassured that the issue has been escalated and a ticket has been made and the order will be canceled and i should receive a confirmation in 1-2 hours. It never got canceled, and not only that it got shipped and delivered. Then i proceeded to make multiple phone calls stating as i previously stated that im traveling internationally and i am not able to return this order but i was told that the only way i can get a refund is if i ship the package back. So i am left with no apple watch, a charge on my card for it, no way of returning and lost 8 hours of my time talking on the phone trying to resolve my issue. this feels very illegal and I am very disappointed in the lack of accountability. At this point I contacted them in every way possible so my only options are to take legal action or pay for an Apple Watch I never ordered.

update: despite my efforts on the phone for an additional 4 hours (total of 12 hours at this point) the order was delivered and the payment plan was still on my account. I have escalated this issue to corporate and fraud team, and both have not gotten back to me in over a week. The watch was delivered back to xfinity and shows on my  Fedex account as delivered for over a week now, still no confirmation email, no refund, and no accountability from the team. They're blaming it on me, claiming that my phone is "unreachable" even though I seem to have no issue being reached by everyone else...

I contacted Xfinity via chat regarding a serious issue with my mobile service — I wasn’t receiving any text messages. Instead of assisting me, the chat agent repeatedly sent me promotional images of Apple Watches. Despite clearly stating multiple times that I was not interested, the agent disconnected the chat and, without my consent, placed an Apple Watch order on my behalf and charged my card.

What followed were multiple phone calls totaling over 13 hours of my time. Each time, I was assured the issue had been escalated, a ticket was created, and the order would be canceled within 1–2 hours. None of those promises were kept. The order was shipped and delivered anyway.

Because I was traveling internationally and unable to return the package myself, I explained the situation repeatedly. I was told that no refund would be issued unless the watch was returned. I had to ask someone to drive over an hour to my house just to return the watch on my behalf — a watch I was explicitly told wouldn’t even be delivered without my signature.

Despite all that, it took an additional two weeks to "inspect" the returned watch — and I was still charged a restocking fee for an order I never placed.

I’ve contacted Xfinity support, corporate escalation teams, and the fraud department. I’ve followed every instruction and exhausted every channel — and I am still left with no resolution, no refund, and no accountability from your team.

This feels not only negligent, but potentially illegal. If this is not resolved immediately — including a full refund and removal of the restocking fee — I will be pursuing legal action. This has been the worst customer experience I’ve ever encountered.

Just wondering why you haven't disputed the charges on your credit card? The credit card company will

make Comcast respond.

  1. While a restocking fee is technically a valid charge, in this case it makes no sense since I never placed the order.

  2. I still need to pay Xfinity for my WiFi and they’re also my mobile provider, so I can’t simply block charges. Also why I was on the phone with them was to cancel the order that I did not make before it ships or gets delivered, the charge itself isn't the only issue it's the fact that it will ship regardless of your efforts to cancel it. 

  3. Because the Apple Watch was delivered, I can’t dispute the charge without returning it as they have proof that the watch is in my possession — which I’ve already explained why I wasn’t in a position to simply return it.

  4. I’m currently traveling, so canceling my credit card isn’t a feasible option.

As a paying customer, I’m entitled to expect that my credit card information will be safe and secure. I should be able to cancel an order I clearly did not place without having to navigate credit card disputes or long holds over the phone with customer service. I have done everything on my part to make this right so honestly, I don’t understand why you would even ask that question.
