equipment upgrade website problem

Got an email for a required equipment update. clicked the link, etc, got to the review the update details, clicked the acknowledge returning the old equipment and submitted the order.  It comes back with "Something went wrong, reload the page and try again".  Tried again multiple times on two different devices.  What's going on and how can I upgrade?

I am having the same issue. Is this really being dealt with as a one-off issue? Seems there might be a bigger problem with that page.

I think i know what the problem is but not sure. I have successfully upgraded.  Xfinity sent me two emails; one was to my comcast email and the other to my regular email. (I forward the comcast email to my regular email because i never use it but comcast sends my payment receipts there).

I was successful with my regular email. I suspect i was trying before with my comcast email. Maybe.

I have a username to log into xfinity and it works. However during the upgrade it prompted to login using my (not xfinity) phone number. This is new. I think the upgrade web page cant handle all these different usernames associated with my account. Certainly i never used the comcast email or created my account with my phone number.

That’s my best guess why it failed and why it now worked for me.
