Unauthorized Internet Upgrade Request

I am getting nonstop spammed about approving an upgrade from my 300mbps to 500mbps internet plan that I did not approve or request. An agent offered the 500mbps to me earlier today but I said no thank you and ended the chat. I have screenshots because the download transcript was "not authorized", I have screenshots of that too. Please stop sending me these messages and emails, I do not want to upgrade my plan.

I updated my xfinity account on June 6, 2026 and my order was confirmed, 500 mbps, no charge for third box. I was satisfied. Bill was lowered, speed was very adequate.

Then in September or October (don't remember exact date) i tried to install the X1 system of streaming but could not get it to work so I brought is back immediately to the xfinity store and requested to go back to what i had.  They said there would be some technicalities with the billing but in a month or two all would be back to what it was. 

Also during that time i signed up for Peacock, which was free as a service for me because i am a diamond member. I don't really trust Comcast but gave it a  try and it was free.

Later in October, I signed up for espn unlimited so i could get access to espn+. AI said that since i have a linear connection to the espn channels (espn espn2, espnews) I would bet this for free.

However my bill went up and my broadband speed was bumped up to 1G, not my request.  

Was the AI wrong about the espn linear connection. 

How do i get back to my order status I signed up for last June?

Hi @user_m9zt0e,

You would be correct. Xfinity's members who subscribe to any TV tier that includes an ESPN channel get ESPN Unlimited at no extra cost.

Additionally, it does sound like there is some confusion around your plan right now. We'd be more than happy to provide you with some clarity by performing an account review. We'll need to gather some additional details via our secure direct message channel to locate your account. Please send our team a direct message with your full name and service address.
