XB10 Wild goose chase!

Does the xb10 exist? I see people are getting them and setting them up. But for some reason customer service/support has sent me on this wild goose chase of trying and bing promised a xb10 and falling short. I have been shipped the wrong box (xb8) multiple times. Been to 5 stores in 4 different cities with customer service/support assuring me each location has them and showing up and the stores do not have them and have never had them. Why is it this hard to get one? They have been promising these since 2024. It is now 2026?! Xfinity/comcast this is unacceptable and is seriously making me consider canceling service all together. I should be able to put in a simple request to have the box shipped to me and in a reasonable 7-10 day period the correct box should show up. Not a used dirty scuffed up xb8 box a new xb10 box as promised! Very disappointed unsatisfied customer here with a bunch of others as well!

Hello, user_jymnqs and thank you so much for reaching out to us for help with your Xfinity Gateway. I know how important it is to have equipment you want, and I’m glad you contacted us so we can make sure you’re getting the best experience possible. Xfinity continually updates its equipment to improve speed, reliability, and overall performance. For that reason, we generally recommend upgrading your device every two to three years to get the most out of your Internet subscription. The type of wireless gateway available can vary based on your speed tier, so upgrading can also help ensure you’re using a device that fully supports your plan. The XB10 is  available only in specific situations depending on the speed tier.

I have done all these steps and as I have stated I have zero resolve! Will you send out a box or not it is simple.
