Regular outtages, but no explanation as to why, or ability to redeem credit

I understand inclement weather knocking out internet service, especially when the connection is not underground fiber, but Xfinity has been going out in my area at least once a week since I moved in about 6 weeks ago. They always send a "we noticed your internet is out" text 20-40 minutes after it's out, and then it's back up in a few hours with no explanation as to what happpened or why it was out. How is it possible for a top tier ISP to have such unreliable connectivity?

I work from home and cannot have internet cutting out constantly. It's also incredibly frustrating that they offer a way to submit for a credit but if it's only a few hours it says you're not eligible... so you mean to tell me that if my internet goes out for 20 hours in a month, all while I'm supposed to be earning a living working from home, it's not enough of a disruption in order to warrant any form of credit. Unbelievable!
