Chat agent would not help, and hung up when he couldn't upsell

Hello,

Just signed up for a new service. Used Xfinity router that was glitchy and kept dropping wifi. So I used automated service, but that disabled my Xfinity router and I couldn't find the network any longer. Chatted with Anil after a long hold. Anil seemed uninterested is solving my issues and kept up selliing me to Mobile plan and then started telling me that my 7 devices (3 phones, 2 laptops, 1 TV, 1 Deco mesh) are too much for my 300MB service! I assured him that I am tech literate and had 200MB before which was enough, so he started asking me to change my ethernet cable, which again is irrelevant because the signal comes from coax, and the wifi was not getting broadcasted, nothing to do with if I have ethernet plugged in. When I pointed this out, he cut off the chat. 

This was very frustrating after almost an hour with this guy. Luckily I am tech literate and had a Netgear CAX30 AX2700 (xfinity compatible device), so I fixed it myself. 

I want to make sure Anil doesn't continue to spoil your reputation. 

Thank you

The concern is not related to Xfinity Compliments................... Topic moved here to the proper help section, and for greater exposure to Comcast corporate employees (The Digital Care Team) for assistance.

@EG, Thanks for moving the case to the right support area!

user_zoik8c Hello and thank you for creating the post on our Xfinity Forums! I'm sorry for the experience that Anil provided during your recent interaction. I never want my customers to not be fully supported when reaching out to my team or any of my peers for their account and service needs. I assure you that is not an experience my team would ever want for our customers esepcially when having an issue with their services. 
 
Please know that if you ever need anything with your services, my team is well versed with almost all Xfinity services and very happy to help out. 

 

In the meantime I will be happy to bring your interaction with Anil to our leadership to help ensure another customer does not have the same trouble with fixing their service. I'm happy to read that you were able to get things working with your gateway. 

 

Is there anything that I might be able to help you with?
