Service issues in my area since "xfinity upgrades" started 2 weeks ago

Got a notice that Xfinity was doing upgrades in my area about two weeks ago.  Our internet and TV service has had constant service issues since the upgrade process began and continues.  This is unacceptable since I work from home and the service is not reliable. 

I have no way of finding out how long these issues will continue.  I will need to switch my services back to Verizon unless the problems are resolved.  

Getting connected to an agent by phone.  Impossible!

Good afternoon! Thanks for reaching out to us here so we can help to address this with you. Service concerns can be frustrating especially if you use your service to work at home. We are here for you and want to offer you the best support we can.

Often, when work is being done in the area for network maintenance, or even an upgrade, there is the possibility of intermittent interruptions. We have a great team of technicians who will work hard to limit this and complete any work as quickly as possible, though. To stay up-to-date on what’s going on, please visit https://comca.st/3nTqu7N. Can you try this link and let us know if you have any questions, please?

Status Center is only tells you if your service is working or not working.  Or if there are known outages at current time; otherwise Service Center is useless.  It does not tell you when it's going to be fixed but delivers a vague "we're working on it".

How can I find out WHEN the issue will be totally resolved?  What's the phone number to get directly to an agent?

Xfinity Assistant is no more than robotics software that will take you in circles.

Agree with user_40dca4! 

Experiencing the same issues where I live (Griffin GA) - ended up at Xfinity store - where they were nice - gave me a new modem and scheduled me for a service call. Service tech was out - saw issues with the throughput to my house - ended up replacing that cable. He also said that he's seeing issues in my area and has scheduled a tech-support to 'trace the line'.

So far, my internet has been "better", relative to what it was a couple of weeks back - but still experiencing issues now and again - main when I have to use VPN to get into my work system. 

So the question is...  How can I find out about this issue in my area - and what they're doing about it? I'm tired of having to use my cell service hot-spot in order to get a  stable connection! Why am I paying for a high speed internet if it's so unreliable?

@user_c5be5f The next best step would be to reach out to us to see if we are able to look at the network in your area for more information. 

Could you please send our team a private message with your full name and full address? Our team can most definitely take a further look at this issue.

• Type your message in the text area near the bottom of the window

• Press Enter to send it

In my case, the internet and TV were working fine BEFORE so it's not the house internal wiring.  I received a message from Xfinity that they were doing supposed "UPGRADES" and then my problems started.

If you work at home and you're xfinity internet is down you are S.O.L.  S (I'll let you guess a 4-letter word) Out of Luck.
