Equipment Rental

I just learned at the Xfinity store that they no longer charge "rent" for Xfinity equipment. I was told they were forced to stop to keep up with competitors (who were not charging rent). Okay, great, so would Xfinity have then stopped charging their current "rental fees" to customers and would the customers see those rental charges drop off, correct?

The concern is not "Home Security Devices And Equipment" help related........... Topic moved here to the proper help section, and for greater exposure to Comcast corporate employees (The Digital Care Team) for assistance.

Thanks for clarifying. Do you know when they stopped charging rental fees for equipment? And because they illegally continued to charge us how can I get the rental fees I paid back?

Our team is here to help! @user_1e7c5x Our latest plans include an Xfinity Gateway which comes with the plan as opposed to an older plan which had the Xfinity Gateway billed separately. Did you make a change to one of the new plans?
