Requesting Manual Credit Review: Line Financing Limit Stuck at $0.00 (Gold Member / BYOD Account)

Hello,

I am writing to request a manual review of my Xfinity Mobile financing limits by the credit/tier management team.

I switched to Xfinity Mobile roughly 2 months ago on a BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) basis. I am currently an Xfinity Gold Rewards member on the Mobile Plus plan. My account explicitly shows that I am approved for up to 4 total mobile lines.

However, when I try to upgrade my current line, the system blocks me with an error stating I am over my allowed number of device payment plans. The system printout in my cart shows a hard system lock setting my financing limit to zero, despite my good standing:

Up to 0 lines on device payment plans ($1,099.99 currently in cart)

Up to $0.00 total allowed on device payment plans

Up to 4 total available lines (1 existing BYOD line, 1 new device in cart)

Because I brought my own device when I switched, it appears the automated system has defaulted my Device Payment Plan (DPP) limit to $0.00.

As a Gold Rewards member with a solid payment history on my core Xfinity account, I would like to request that a support ticket be escalated to the internal credit department to manually re-evaluate my internal history and assign a standard DPP dollar limit to my mobile account so I can complete this upgrade.

Thank you for your assistance.

Good day Heartbreak23, and thank you for your post in our community! We infinitely appreciate your being a member of the Xfinity Mobile family, so we're happy to help with any questions you have regarding your options for financing a new phone 👍

When shopping for Xfinity Mobile phones or lines, it's important to note that your line eligibility is not the same as your device payment plan credit allowance. While you are approved for up to four lines, those lines would not be available for device payment plans based on the eligibility you outlined. Xfinity Mobile credit limits are reviewed automatically based on internal metrics, and there is no manual reevaluation process we are able to submit for customers as a result. You do not need to take any action for your account to be reviewed, as these take place automatically every six months, and you are notified if you qualify for an increase. Let me know if you have any questions on that 👍

I initiated two new mobile lines in April and attempted to upgrade our BYOD phones. We were told that only one qualified, we could not replace 2. I was told that I had not had an established account long enough.

Even though I have an 850 credit rating I was told that the limitation was length of account, without any further explanation or deliniation. So I passed on the upgrades and decided to come back later. 

So I now decided to upgrade 1 phone. It seems I have 0 DPP credits.

I can only assume Xfinity has no care for their customers.

It seems a little opaque and certainly feels like bait and switch to me since the advertisement is shown on my login but I apparently, magically, invisibly do not qualify for it.

Hello and thank you for reaching about via our Xfinity Community Forums, @user_i1edfv. I can see why you're frustrated. If you were told to check back later and are now finding you have no available financing, that's understandably confusing, especially when you're seeing upgrade offers on your account. I'd be happy to take a closer look and see what's going on. When you have a chance, please send us a Direct Message with your full name and service address. I'll review the account and see what information is available regarding your upgrade eligibility and financing options. Thanks for bringing this to our attention, and I'll do my best to help get some answers for you.
