House Smart Ticket

I recently built a new home and have been trying to get Comcast setup since. I reached out early and spoke with a representative and she said she would notate the account that it is a new build with a long driveway. The FIRST technician shows up the week we moved in and says there's nothing he can do he needs to have the construction team come out and survey it and that someone would be in touch with me within the next 48 hours. Never received a call or any communication from Comcast. They then sent another Technician out who said the same exact thing. I would need the construction team to come out and survey and that someone would be in touch within 48 hours. It's been well over 48 hours and I still have yet to receive a call. I also have the persons number who originally set me up and she wont return my calls after multiple messages. 

I'm just trying to do business with your company and am besides myself that no one can reach out to me to give me an update. What do I do at this point? I'm at a loss for words.

Concern moved here to the Customer Service help section for greater exposure to Comcast corporate employees (The Digital Care Team) for assistance.

Thank you EG. I'm pretty sure Comcast doesn't care about my business based off my recent experience and would be shocked if this actually works.

Given everything you mentioned above, I can completely see your point of view. I agree we should have been more proactive, and I'll do everything I can to help clear things up. I know I can't change was has already occurred, but I can promise that you'll have all hands on deck here. I'll be on standby awaiting your reply. @user_d0qdfm

Thank you. What is the best way to reach out to you?

I mean directly reach out to you so I can deal with 1 person instead of explaining myself again.

@user_d0qdfm All of your messages are pulled into one thread so that our team can help you. While you may work with multiple representatives, it is just one conversation on our end, so you don't have to explain everything multiple times. While I might be biased, our team is pretty awesome and will stick with you until this is resolved.

Hi, @user_d0qdfm. Thank you for reaching out and for all your efforts so far. I understand your main goal is to become a customer, and I know it's less than ideal to wait for any answers. Based on the details of your post, I believe it could be your home was a bit further from the nearest plant that was originally calculated. That would mean we'd need to have additional construction to extend the line. This would include additional tickets with teams like the local techs, planning, and design (calculates cost and routes), and folks that complete the surveys. I'll dive in to see where we are in the process and provide any updates we have. 

I ask that you reach out privately, so we can cover the details of your account. You can start by clicking the chat icon located in the top right corner of your forums page when signed in. Once there, you can direct your messages to "Xfinity Support." Please add your full name and service address to help us locate your account. Let me know if you have any questions.

I understand my home was built a bit further than normal and would fully expect you to need additional techs to get this job done. I may even incur a cost which I'm totally fine with and am willing to pay at my expense. My biggest problem is the lack of communication and lack of expectations set by your company. I've been on the phone all day with multiple different agents who said they will "open a ticket" which your company has been doing the last 2 weeks and again no one has reached back out to me. Today I was frustrated and asked to speak with a supervisor 2 different times and was hung up on and the phone was mysteriously disconnected. Not to mention the Customer Service rep "Liz" who I've been reaching out to throughout this entire time gave me her direct line "if I have any issues" and hasn't reached back out to me. Not even one attempt to return a call. 

I'll direct message you through Xfinity Support which you recommend but the sad part is this is what I have to do to get a straight answer. It shouldn't result in this nor should I have to go to this extent to do business with Comcast. This is very poor customer service.

Just wanted to follow up with a recap on my experience with Comcast Customer Service chat. After trying this route I was hopeful to get some sort of answer. I logged in (as they directed me to) and was told they're team is "pretty awesome". After being on the chat for over an hour I rec'd 2 responses from Comcast. One was saying there's an open ticket and the other was asking for my Name, Phone number, Address. I gave them all this information and they ghosted me. This was a COMPLETE waste of my night. At this point I am at a complete loss on what to do to get Comcast at my house. I'm trying to do business with you folks and it shouldn't be this difficult. NO ONE RESPONDS TO ME! I've called, chatted, emailed and cannot get a straight answer.

I finally received a response from the Online Support Team. All I received was an explanation starting with "in my experience" they typically take 30 days up to 120 days to receive a response. I was originally told I would receive a call back within 48 hours with an update. Still have not received any call and or update within the givin 48 hour timeline Comcast originally gave me. You guys need to do a better job at setting expectations up with your customers. If your telling me your going to call me within 48 hours, call me within 48 hours. I should not have to resort to this forum to get some/any kind of response. 

I was told by the online "Customer Service" rep that if I want to receive a call I should call in. The sad part is that I did. I called 5 times and not 1 person could help me but instead they "opened a ticket". I received multiple texts today saying my ticket was closed. I still have not received a phone call from Comcast. I still have no idea what is happening with my individual ticket as all I was told it was opened and closed. I have no idea whats happening. Just trying to do business with you guys.
