user_q6n14k You can reach a representative at 1-800-934-6489 as this is the best number to use. My team can also help you on this forum as well. What issue are you having?

I've tried that number.  Keep getting routed to use text or chat or website.  My seasonal hold internet is not working - since April 16.  Ready to drop xfinity when I get back in town.

@XfinityShawn​ 

My seasonal hold is also hasn’t been working since April.  Last month I spent more than 2 hours (not exaggerating- I was in tears) dealing with Xfinity’s chat and website support roadblocks of options and eventually managed to speak to a human who assured me the issue had been resolved.    Then this morning Xfinity AGAIN charged my credit card the full monthly charge!  All that time and frustration for nothing.   Why can’t Xfinity allow customers to speak to human support personnel?

I just don’t have the time, energy and patience to try dealing again with Xfinity’s “customer support” roadblocks.  I’ll just turn off auto pay,  keep all my records and cancel when I get back to town.

Agreed after no service for over 24 hours no updates no why we are without service not time frame for restoration of service and being hung up on and basically removing the ability to speak to any actual person we are about done good thing our contract end is coming up.   You can't leave people without service and no idea when it will be back on or why they are without service.   Even the service map shows absolutely no one else around us without service.   Have tried chat have tried everything possible and still zero information and no ability to get any as we are blocked from speaking to anyone at all

Yes we have zero updates zero information. Signed up for text notifications and no updates sent

Outages effect our entire way of life. Our business our security and even baby monitors for our child.   Not having an estimated time of restoration or any information as to what has occured to cause the information is unacceptable.   Following that up with not allowing customers to call in to speak to anyone to get information is just an absolutely disgusting way to do business.   We pay our bill but can't speak to anyone when we have an interruption of service to get information??   It is a horrible way to treat customers who pay you for reliable service.

Customer service is a great reason for leaving xfinity.  It's not just a joke, it's insulting and a mind blowing experience just trying to speak with a live agent.  As good as the tv service and internet is, I'll definately be cutting the cord very soon.  I don't need to pay to get frustrated.

Is there actually anyone in the United States to talk to, to rectify a situation that has been going on since July 21,2024?  I am sick and tired of “being escalated to the back office” and nothing being done!  Speaking to someone local and not overseas would help greatly with the communication barrier.  Never in my 30+ years with Comcast have I been treated so poorly!!!!

You have to push buttons for 20 minutes and then talk to this automated phone call lady that always says that there will be a live operator in 2 minutes and then 30 minutes later you might get to talk to somebody.

I am experiencing the same issues! The chat option and IVR are of no help at all. The ‘agents’ are extremely rude and incompetent. They treat you like [Edited: "Language"]! I just need to speak with a live person that will actually address and at least attempt to resolve my issues. If I cannot get the proper assistance, I will take my business elsewhere. I would like for someone to contact me.

I'm trying to get a tech service to my mother's house for repair. I cannot get a live person. I cannot do it on the internet because it connects to my account not my mother's. I need to have somebody go out to her house and find the problem. She is 95 years old, does not use the internet, does not have a smartphone. This is extremely aggravating and I need someone to help with this.

Xfinity is bad, bad, bad!  The company doesn’t care about their customers. Customer service is awful. I really don’t think people work at this company. Everything is automated. Well guess what Xfinity….automation to customer problems and concerns isn’t the answer to everything. I challenge an Xfinity executive to call the Xfinity number and try and get live help. I am willing to bet get gets nothing. 

Xfinity has a lot of nerve to charge what they charge and give little in return to their customers when it comes to service

also, the help desk try hard to help, but trying to understand them is impossible. Once again, have an Xfinity executive try and communicate with a foreign help desk person. They wouldn’t last more than 3 minutes in the

Xfinity is great for taking my money and letting me hang on my own. They don’t believe nor know what good customer service is!

I have been on the phone with many "helpers" out of this country.  None have helped.  I am talking hours and hours.  I am unable to log into my 3 accounts.  I have provided all the information numerous times, and then I get transferred to a line with a "40-minute wait."  I need a person in the USA who knows how to untangle a mess when I signed on with xfinity.  My number is [Edited-PII].
