Start Date for New Xfinity Service

I recently canceled my current Xfinity service, scheduled to end on August 29th, and received a confirmation code over the phone.

I'm moving into a new apartment on September 13th and have already purchased a new internet service from Xfinity. However, I couldn’t verify the service’s starting date during the purchase.

I opted for delayed delivery on September 6th, the latest available date online, but I own my modem/router and don’t rent from Xfinity.

I’m worried that the service might start on the purchase date, August 7th, which is five weeks before my move-in date.

Can you clarify when exactly the service is scheduled to start? Is it possible to set a specific start date?

@user_aojfvm That definitely sounds confusing based on the notifications you received. Our team can help clear things up. If you could please send me a DM with your first and last name along with both of the full-service addresses, we can get started.

To send a "Direct Message" to Xfinity Support:

Click "Sign In" if necessary

Click the "Direct Messaging" icon or https://comca.st/3EqVMu7

Click the "New message" (pencil and paper) icon

The "To:" line prompts you to "Type the name of a person". Instead, type "Xfinity Support" there

 - As you are typing a drop-down list appears. Select "Xfinity Support" from that list

 - An "Xfinity Support" graphic replaces the "To:" line

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

Press Enter to send it

See https://comca.st/3KQF8q9 for an example.
