It says right on the back of one of the pages on my Comcast/Xfinity bill that there is a 10% senior Citizen/Disable discount that "applies to customers who meet the requirements specified under N.J.S.A. 48:5A-11.2 and N.J.A.C. 14:18-3.20.  Sooooooooooooo Xfinity where exactly does one go to get this discount in our accounts?  Where does it give further information for this?

@neitowl  Do you know and/or have you met the requirements specified under N.J.S.A. 48:5A-11.2 and N.J.A.C. 14:18-3.20?
