Error In Placing Order For Xfinity Services

Hello. I am a new customer and I have been trying to sign up for Xfinity Internet but to no avail. At the checkout page page, after entering my card info and clicking next i keep getting "Tokenization request is declined. Code: 481 Reason Message: The order has been declined by the Decision Manager". The prepayment stated there is 0$ and i have reached out to my bank but there is no issue on their end. They keep telling me there has been no attempt at a purchase. I tried using my girlfriends card and that of my brother but its the same issue

I reached out to chat, they sent me a link, i went through the same nightmare. This has gone on for a week. What is this error message and whats the cause?

jerrys12 Let me see if there is an issue with the address. 

Can you send us a direct message with your full name, name of account holder (if different), and service address please?

To send a "Direct Message" to Xfinity Support:

Click "Sign In" if necessary

Click the "Direct Messaging" icon (speech bubble)

Click the "New message" (pencil and paper) icon

The "To:" line prompts you to "Type the name of a person". Instead, type "Xfinity Support" there

- As you are typing a drop-down list appears. Select "Xfinity Support" from that list

- An "Xfinity Support" graphic replaces the "To:" line

Type your message in the text area near the bottom of the window

Press Enter to send it

@user_7engdl I’m sorry to hear you're having an issue with making a payment. This is never the experience we want for anyone. 

How are you making the payment? Is it through the app or website?

Can you try using incognito/private mode in your browser and see if the payment goes through?
