Internet suspended despite bill being paid

My internet has stopped working. According to my account, my internet has been suspended and will resume once the balance has been paid. However, I have paid through this month and next month. When will my internet service resume?

Greetings @user_5phwoo, thanks for reaching out. I am so sorry for the disruption to your service, especially since you’ve already paid your balance. To confirm, has your service been restored or are you still needing assistance?

I’m experiencing the same issue. Twice this month. It feels fraudulent- ESPECIALLY if multiple customers are experiencing this.

Hello user_dm7zxu, Sorry to hear you are experiencing similar issues. Are you account currently shut off or are you receiving notifications that it may get shut off? We were having an issue previously of accounts with $0 balances getting warnings, but they were not getting shutdown.

It was shutoff but then restored after I made a payment I didn’t even owe. This has happened twice with no promised refund in sight. I work from home and can’t afford the unnecessary service interruptions for what seems to be predatory billing practices. This is not looking good for the company or current customers if the billing issues aren’t resolved soon.

I’d also like to add that the service has been suspended twice when I didn’t have a past due balance and I was still required to make an additional payment for restoration. When the services are disconnected there haven’t been any notices via email, phone, or text from xfinity.

Thanks for confirming all that information. I am sorry the account has been continuing to get shut off. Please send us a direct message with your full name and service address. We can look into getting this issue escalated and look into refunding any overpayment. We will need to see why the system is not recognizing the payments on the account.
