There is supposed to be an outage in my area but the outage map only shows me

All of my services have been out for nearly 5 hours. When I open an outage map in the app or online, it shows nothing but my house. It could be that there isn't an outage and the problem is at my house. But no one will speak with me because there's an outage. How can I contact a person through phone or chat? I get nothing but the automated system and then I'm disconnected.

Xfinity has been out since 5:02 pm 3/19/25.

Says it may be back at 4:00 am. This is the third time change.

Xfinity does not say why nor is their outsge map working/updated.

Why have the map if it doesn’t work or get updated?

Why can’t they post the issue WITH  better accurate times?

user_bz7itt Thanks for your comment. I'm sorry to hear about the disconnection. Have you checked our Suppor Center Page for more information on the interruption? It would be the best way to check the status of it, and you can also request credit after the interruption is resolved from there. 

 

It's a great feature we added to help our customers out when they experience a loss of service due to repairs. We understand the importance of having reliable services and want to be fair in these types of situations. You can click the link, "Check eligibility" in the "Tips in case of an interruption" section at the bottom of the page. I hope this helps.

If you use any of the many sites who hold outage reports, they all show Xfinity outages and in my area.  However, the entire Xfinity network could be down and the outage map says "All Good!" But, if you scroll down, the map may or may not display an active outage even though there clearly is one.  I've reported the outages several times and the Xfinity assistant sends a text update and insists it's on my end and wants to schedule a technician.  Or, the text update never shows up and is typically a sign that it is NOT on my side and they are trying to deflect to buy time.  I've had Xfinity for decades but over the last few weeks, it's up and down constantly and using my cellphone hotspot is not free.  It's time to look at other options especially considering the high cost of Xfinity and the fact that I am NOT getting what I am paying for month after month.
