New account created when changing to a different plan at same address

This morning I changed my XFinity internet plan and I am now seeing two "linked" accounts to the same address. I do not want to be double billed and have received an email stating that equipment was shipped, which as far as I am aware, I do not need. I am unable to get through to any useful support via the chat on the XFinity website.

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

Greetings @user_ba9mt1, and thanks for posting your issue to the Xfinity forums, I hope this message finds you well. I am sorry to hear about the issue you are having with the accounts, what might have happened is when you went online to change the plan, instead there was a second account opened in order to get specific pricing, and the account you had is probably set for cancelation. We can take a look and see if that is the case. Could you please send our team a direct message with your full name and full address?

I am so irritated with Xfinity…

The SAME THING has just happened to me as well. I’m also a “new customer”.
Now I am being double billed apparently, my auto payment was deleted when the rep updated my rate and all this just because he wanted the sale instead of fixing the problem. Now I have to disconnect all my boxes and internet box and return to get a new and reconnect. I’m a busy person so this is beyond inconvenience.

Creating another account without someone’s knowledge of doing that.. I would consider fraud.

I am having basically this same exact issue just today as well. I was logged into my existing Xfinity account, went to change plan, reviewed options, and selected a new plan with 5 year price guarantee and Xfinity Gateway included. Checked out, and now I suddenly have a second, new Xfinity account created, linked to but separate from my pre-existing account. I want to make sure that I will not be double billed for two plans at the same address. Can you send me a DM request to look into this? Thanks!

Hello, @user_yfnghy thank you for reaching out over Xfinity Forums. I'd definitely like to look into the double account concern further. Since I'll need to gather some information we don't want here in our public conversation. Could you please send our team a direct message with your full name and full address?
