Why does XFINITY think it's acceptable to have the automated phone system hang up on you?

This happens over and over. It's not enough that you have a dozen prompts telling callers to use the online chat (which also never routes to a human being no matter what you do).

The system ignores any requests for an agent, says "Thank you for calling. Goodbye."

The only way to get put in queue is to ignore every prompt and just say "agent" over and over?

I'm going to test out calling Century Link. If their system is any less nighmarish - why wouldn't I switch immediately?

Hello and thank you for taking the time to reach out to us here on our Xfinity Forums. I truly apologize for the frustration with trying to reach an agent. The great news is that when you reach out to us here on our Xfinity Forums you get to work with a team of Corporate Digital Care experts. I would love to help you with any concerns you have. What was the reason for the call today?

@XfinityBillie I want XFINITY to stop spamming my email address. I've been unsubscribed over a year and route all XFINITY email to spam because 99% of it is.

While I appreciate that there are actual humans here, it's no excuse for the phone system to just hang up. At least it could ask if the issue was resolved and this reflects perfectly how XFINITY feels about users.

I reached out to support and - after scolding me for following your instructions and contacting them - they didn't help. They just said that according to their records, I'm not subscribed. That's what I've been saying all along.

What now?

I am having the same issue. Every they keep h going up the line on me. I’m simply trying to add Xfinity mobile to my account. I guess this is a sign to steer clear of I can’t even get through the phone lines!
