Two accounts created for one address causing duplicate charges

I have 2 accounts created somehow but I just need 1 of them. No explanation from customer service about how the other one was created.

Called xfinity representative and asked for cancel one of them, received an acknowledge email 5 minutes later but the account is still ACTIVE today (its been 2 weeks)

I don't know how to cancel the other account since it still charges me. Now the debt collector starts texting me about the payment lol why am I need to pay for the extra line created by mistake?

The issue I am experiencing with Xfinity. I began an internet service with Xfinity for an apartment I rented starting on May 11, 2023, at a monthly fee of $35. However, I recently discovered that they increased the fee to $66.05 on September 4, 2025.

 

In addition, I purchased a home and decided to continue using Xfinity Internet from July 22, 2024, paying $64.18 monthly. I kept the original account active as my friends were using it. When I opened the second account for my home, they offered me a package where I would pay an extra $64.32 for two phone lines (my wife’s and mine) if I switched from T-Mobile to Xfinity, which I accepted.

 

I set up autopay to avoid dealing with multiple bills every month. Despite receiving monthly notifications, I felt that the charges were too high. Upon further investigation, I realized that Xfinity had been charging me for the phone service on both accounts since September 2024. They took 18 payments totaling $1,137.44 for a service that was not provided.

 

Today, I called Xfinity and they disconnected the inactive phones on my home account. However, when I requested a reimbursement, they initially said they could only reimburse the last month, then offered $120, and finally $250. I mentioned that I would consult my lawyer about the situation, as I do not understand how they could charge me for the same phone service on two accounts. They apologized but stated that they could not issue a full refund because I discovered the issue too late. This seems unreasonable to me.
