user_1tko3a thank you for using the Xfinity Community Forums team to reach out today. I know how nice it can be to reach a live representative, and I am happy to inform you that you've found one here in myself. As for contacting our phone line, the direct number would be 1-800-Xfinity or 1-800-934-6489. After dialing the number and pressing the option to call, you would just need to wait until the line picks up and follow the prompts given by the Xfinity Assistant on the other end. The specific steps needed for yourself will vary greatly depending on what exactly it is that you need assistance with.

 

All that being said, like I mentioned before we are also a team of experts who can assist you on our end as well. What exactly were you looking to address today?

I have called Xfinity many times during the cold and rainy months because my internet is slow or not working. In the past, I contacted technical support, but they only fixed it temporarily—the internet worked for a few hours and then slowed down or stopped again, just like before.

When I called 1-800-Xfinity (1-800-934-6489), the system said my internet was fine. This week, I called again, and the system still said everything was normal, but my internet remained extremely slow or completely unavailable.

I tried reaching a live representative for a whole week, but I couldn't get through to anyone. As a Comcast/Xfinity customer since 2003, I now feel that Xfinity no longer respects its customers.

I have two accounts with Xfinity—today, I decided to cancel one. In the future, I may close all accounts and stop being an Xfinity customer.

If Xfinity does not respect you, should you still be their customer?

The problem is you cannot get through to a live person easily. My service has gone down four times in a month and trying to call them is literally impossible. Chatting is even worse because they have their tech support over seas so there is a lack of understanding what you are trying to tell them and I get to sit here all weekend without service.

Time to find another provider. Maybe ATT will now bring fiber in since they built 3 million dollar townhouses next door.

I need a live agent. the AI assistant is ridiculous and can't help with my problem. I can't get around the system to an agent, it keeps looping back to the starting prompts. it didn't used to be this hard to get a real live person on the chat. I refuse to call only to wait on hold forever or be disconnected.

If you start your own thread outlining your problem [leaving out any personal identifying information] you will get help faster as this opens a ticket to an Official Employee here and they will post here to help you.

I have never been treated so poorly by a company. Even a customer service person named Rob in Blaine Minnesota said he would help but has now continued to ignore my request of getting my internet to actually work! I’d love for Brian L Robert’s the CEO call me! This reflects poorly on the company as a whole! If I need to I will write him a full complaint letter to 1701 John F Kennedy Blvd Philadelphia, PA 19103

@user_1ttmkd​ you should post your internet issue [not your complaint] in Your Home Network.

If never been treated so poorly by a company  in my entire life! 2 months now I’ve been with internet service and NO ONE will help me. [Edited: "Personal Information"], like think a manager from the Blaine, MN store said he could help but is now telling me I’ll be charged for my nonexistent service and he will not return my phone calls. I have been very patient. Two months!!!! 2 months and you’re telling me no one can get my internet up and running? This is the most frustrating company to deal with.

When I call, I get a recorded message about NBC Sports. The message keeps repeating and makes it impossible to even ask for Tech Support.
