Internet service down, need to speak to a human

My internet has not worked for three days due to a storm. I contacted Comcast and they setup an automated text alert. After ten minutes I received this text, “ Xfinity Alerts: Service is restored!  Is your equipment working now?” It was not working, so I replied “No”. Then I received this text, “ Xfinity Alerts: Can we call you back on this phone? Reply 'Y.' If not, reply 'N.' Msg&Data RatesMayApply. MsgFreqVaries. Reply HELP anytime”. I replied “Y”. Then I received this message, “ Xfinity Alerts: Sorry, due to a system error we are unable to have an agent call you. For assistance call 1-800-COMCAST”. I called three times and each time it redirected me to the automated alert about the power outage. Ending the call and not giving an option to speak to a representative. This is absolutely ridiculous and TERRIBLE customer service. Which is it, is my service reconnected or not? Please contact me via my phone number listed in my account.

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

Same here!!!! The system is working well enough to debit my payment but can't get my internet connected. That's [Edited: "Language"]!!!! This is the worst company to deal with and get rid of the robotic xfinity assistant! [Edited: "Language"] as much as we pay in service fees, we should at least be able to speak with an real human!!! I hate this company!
