Worst company

I never write Reviews this is obscured I recently went into a local store and started services with xfinity spent 2 hours at the store within three days. My services were shut off. On the app it was saying it was shut off due to a $40 balance owed. I started a chat with a live agent Nikita (since you can’t call and get thru to an actual person) inquiring why would I have a bill when I just started services 3 days prior. After on live chat with agent Nikita for over 1 1/2 hours. She assured me I shouldn't had a bill and she was restoring my services. She had sent me a link to reactivate my equipment. I was not at home at the time she sent the link so when I tried to go back to it, it was no longer visible in the chat. I did have a screenshot of it. I tried to do it that way with no luck. Spent another almost 2 hours on a live chat. They kept transferring me from agent to agent by the last agent. They assured me that all I had to do was call a specific xfinity number they gave me in the morning, they were making notes making it a “high priority” and it would be a quick call in the morning and my services would be restored. I called the next morning, another 2 hour phone call they disclosed that there was a block on the apartment due to a prior tenants bill even including the prior tenants name and how much they owe. Which how do you release information on a former customer to a new customer?? Now they are requesting a copy of the lease and a copy of a bill from my prior address. I have spent countless hours trying to just start services with Xfinity I do not believe a prior customers bill should be another customer's problem. I've never heard of a bill staying at a home and not being charged to the former customer. I should not be held responsible for the prior tenant’s bill, you should be able to resolve this issue on your end. I would not recommend xfinity to ANYONE!!

user_tbosri Hello and thank you for reaching out via our Xfinity Community Forums. 

I’m so sorry to hear about the incredibly frustrating experience you’ve had—spending hours trying to set up your service and being asked to resolve an issue that should never have impacted you must be so exhausting. We understand how upsetting this is, and you absolutely deserve a seamless start to your service, not the stress and confusion you’ve gone through. 😔

I’d love to help make this right and get everything sorted out as quickly as possible. If you’d like, I can review your account and work on resolving this issue, including addressing the block related to the prior tenant. Please feel free to send me a direct message with your full name and address, and I’ll do everything I can to assist.

Thank you for sharing your experience and for your patience while we work to fix this. You deserve better, and I’m here to support you!
