We should receive a credit for a 5 day outage
We lost service on Monday 2/23 at about 5 PM. We made sure the outage was reported, via the Xfinity app. Every time we checked the app, the same message appeared with the estimated time of restoration "as soon as possible". And crews would be working on the issue "as soon as it was safe". We had no internet, phone, or TV. We called the 800 number, same response and the automated system disconnected us with no opportunity to speak to a real person. The Xfinity assistant was not much help, providing the same message. FOR FIVE DAYS. Some kind of human response would go a long way to making customers feel like you care at teeny bit! We did finally get to chat with a real (?) person Friday night, but the responses were taking 20 minutes to get to us. I gave up. Saturday morning, we received a text stating that the outage has been resolved and if we were still having issues, we would need to request a tech visit. Of course, we were still having issues, so we set up a dispatch for a technician to arrive between 12 and 2. The tech arrived about 1 PM and quickly determined that the problem was not inside the house but out at the road and he could not correct it. He set up an urgent repair request and told us the someone would be out within 4 hours, and the issue would be corrected today. The truck arrived quickly and fixed the issue at the road. Our services were finally restored at 2:15 PM or so Saturday 2/28. I work from home. I was severely limited to what I could do without service. I've requested a credit, but we are not "eligible". I feel that we certainly ARE due some kind of credit consideration. The lack of communication from Xfinity was truly disappointing. The tech who showed up at our house was terrific! But the whole episode leaves a very bad taste.

Hello, @user_0bnij8 sorry for the inconvenience this service interruption caused. I see that we previously spoke with you in a direct message. I will pick up the conversation there, so we can work on that credit.
