I was told the phone was free until I saw my bill

I purchased mobile service with Xfinity 1 month ago. I told the sales rep that I wanted to purchase the Galaxy phone. He told me that the moto g phone was free and to take it despite my interest in the Galaxy. After receiving both cell phones, the Samsung malfunctions a month later and I gave to take it to an Xfinity rep who asks me why I'm paying for two phones and one was never activated. The sales rep lied to me to take a phone that was not free and that I didn't need and now they won't take the phone back. This is fraudulent.

You may not have been paying the price of the moto g, but you had two cell phones, hence two lines of service that you were paying for.  Apparently the CSR didn't make that clear, but he didn't necessarily lie to you.  So, the moto g was free, but you were paying for cell service for it even though you hadn't activated it.

@Again​ there was no reason for two cell service lines. When I check my bill i noticed on both cell phones had installments and I was paying a fee ...when I went to Xfinity I yesterday told me that I was paying for both phones.

The Moto g phone was never activated because I didn't need it in the first place. The Galaxy phone was the phone that was activated hence the reason why I told the sales rep that I never needed the Moto g in the first place. So there was no reason for two service lines.

The thing is, you accepted the Moto G and took it home whether you activated or not, you were still paying for the service, not the phone.

The exact same thing happened to me today, Luis tell me if I switched from AT&t to Xfinity he would give me an absolutely free iPhone SE but when I got home and looked at my account they added $400 with a $17 payment a month. I contacted an attorney today because this is not the first time this has happened to me with this company

@user_ac4466​ this same thing happened to my mother who is 85 years old and they have been charging her for 10 months.  Was your attorney able to help?
