Transferring Service

I moved from Attleboro MA to Cambridge MA. I tried the online move tool and was told I needed a new gateway. I went to the xfinity store, got a new gateway, and came home. When I tried to activate the gateway, I got a message that said I needed xfinity internet. Checking the app shows the old address and that my account has been deactivated.

Concern moved here to the Customer Service help section for greater exposure to Comcast corporate employees (The Digital Care Team) for assistance.
