Unacceptable Customer Service

I am writing this on behalf of my elderly mother who has been having issues with her cable box cutting out. She called your company on Monday (1/5) to request that someone come out and service her box. This brings me to my concerns. First, in trying to talk through her problem, she was given misinformation about her plan and account that has impacted her service. Second, and more importantly, she was told a person would come out to her house to service her box this evening (1/7). No one came. Moreover, when she called Xfinity to inquire why no one came, she was told that an employee called her--this is not accurate. My mother took time off from her job for this appointment. I would like to know how you are going to rectify this situation. Shame on your company if this is not how you treat a loyal customer, particularly one who is elderly. Your communication needs to be clearer and more direct.

Good evening user_b7a08b thank you so much for taking the time out of your day and reaching out on behalf of your mother. I can fully understand your frustrations, and we would love to help in any way possible. We do call and text customers prior to their appointments, to ensure that everything is still in a compromised state, or if things have cleared up or a visit is no longer needed. If we do not have contact with customers it can lead to appointments being cancelled if we can't remotely replicate or see the issues happening.

My mother is unsure if I am an authorized user on her account. I have directed her to go to a store (again) to address her concerns as well as have me added as a user, if I am not one.
