Texts asking me to return equipment I don't have

I've received texts from Xfinity asking me to return Xfinity equipment even though I used my own modem and router. The Xfinity website doesn't list any equipment that I need to return and Xfinity chat agents are conveniently never available. I am worried that instead of refunding my credit balance within 30 days, Xfinity may fraudulently charge me.

We can look into your equipment concern. Please send us a private message with your name and address.

 

   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.

I am having this same issue. Canceled service earlier this month and keep getting text alerts stating I have equipment to return. I’ve been using my own modem and router for over 5 years.

I'm having the same issue, and when I send a direct message, none of you ever respond.

I'm also having the same issue. However, I have found that people do respond to direct messages. 

I just don't understand why I'm getting this when my account shows I have no equipment from xfinity.

I am having the same problem. I have been on the phone with Xfinity for more than 20 minutes and they're unable to help me. I don't want to be charged anything - but there's no equipment for me to return.
