Receiving texts about returning equipment which I never had

Hello. I’ve been receiving texts about returning my xfinity equipment after I canceled my service last month. The only thing is, I used my own equipment! Furthermore, when I click on the link in the text, it takes me to a page to start the return process, but nothing is listed, which supports the fact that I have no equipment to return. Has anyone else been in this situation? I just want to make sure that I won’t be fined or something due to this obvious error.  Please help, thanks!

Hello and welcome to Comcast @user_j1mq3w. Thank you so much for reaching out to us today regarding the message you received regarding the equipment. You are in the right place and we are happy to assist you today. By any chance did you have a streaming Flex/Xumo Box?

@XfinityRoberto​ hi there. No, I didn’t have one of those. I only had internet from xfinity, and I used my own equipment.

I am currently experiencing the exact same issue, right now.

The worst part --I followed the steps Roberto posted, and chatted with Xfinity Support in chat. They also assured me that I had no equipment to return. They told me it was the end of the issue, and that I wouldn't receive any more texts. Then I received a call today about returning a streaming box, which I had never received. I called another customer service line, which confirmed that I had never received nor needed to return any equipment. This has been a mess.

So, I chatted with xfinity support as I was asked,  and they assure me that my account is closed with no balance due and zero pieces of equipment to return. They also told me the texts I received are auto-generated and general, which they understand can be confusing to receive in this situation. Perhaps they should somehow filter those texts for certain customers it doesn’t apply to…
