The worst

I transitioned to Xfinity’s mobile and internet bundle late last year to save money, but it has been a costly mistake. For anyone considering this "deal" in 2026, be warned: the savings are a mirage, and the service is unreliable.
  • Inconsistent Internet Speeds: Despite paying for a high-tier plan, my speeds rarely hit 50% of what was advertised. I experience frequent packet loss and random "ping spikes" that make working from home or gaming impossible during peak hours.
  • Mobile Service Failures: The mobile service is even worse. Calls drop constantly, and I often find myself with "No Service" even in busy areas. They claim to use a major carrier’s towers, but the data is so strictly limited and deprioritized that it feels like 3G from a decade ago.
  • Hidden Fees & Price Hikes: My bill increased by $20 in January 2026 without any clear explanation. They lure you in with a low introductory rate and then stack on "Regional Sports Fees" and other junk charges that you can't opt out of.
  • Non-Existent Customer Support: Trying to resolve these issues is a nightmare. Their "Virtual Assistant" is useless, and getting a human on the phone takes nearly an hour. When you finally do, agents often give conflicting information or accidentally disconnect the call.
Bottom Line: Xfinity seems more interested in predatory billing than actually providing the service you pay for. I am currently looking for any other provider to escape this contract. Save yourself the headache and stay away. It took more than five people to tell me at the end to just go to the store.
