[Edited] state representative

I've contacted my state representative along with the FTC for another complaint about not allowing consumers to port their numbers and allowing them to unlock their phones. This poses a serious safety risk especially for victims of domestic violence who oftentimes need to switch carriers but need their same phone number for safety reasons and want to have their own bill.  Otherwise they're abusers can get a copy of their bill and see who their contacting find out they're whereabouts. It is unbelievably unsafe and scary that Xfinity plays these games with customers. Especially when under federal law they are allowed to port their numbers.

Thank you for connecting with us here in our community, @user_3b04f8. I'm not sure what the details of your concerns are with porting and unlocking your mobile phone. Xfinity Mobile does allow the unlocking of phones once they are paid off in full, as well as porting their numbers. As part of the Safe Connections Act, our customers are allowed to separate their phone line. Here: https://www.xfinity.com/support/account-management/safe-connections is the link for the request that can be found online. If you would like to provide more details via a Direct Message, we can assist there privately.

I've done this a hundred times I've called today I have attempted to get the pin myself through my account but it's fake. The process that you are telling people to follow and pushing that button does not send them a pin. It's all a game you're playing. Now it's a game you're playing that's causing people a safety issue and could cause them potential harm. I file the complaint with my state representative who is pushing victims of domestic violence barriers and advocating new laws, I filed an FTC complaint and I file the better Business Bureau complaint.  You will not <Edited: Language> with people like me who are in a situation that it is literally life or death that we need a pin to get off of a plan and to get on a new one so someone can't track us.

Perhaps you should educate <Edited: Inflammatory> on these laws and regulations. You are putting me in danger because I can't just get a simple pin. I have another carrier but I can't switch because you won't text me a pin. So that entire online system that you have is fake and is a <Edited: Language> button that doesn't work. How dangerous is this for victims!!
