Xfinity cannot activate my phone number ported from T-Mobile. Now I cannot access any of banks or my password manager due to MFA

Two weeks ago, I ported all of my lines from T-Mobile (now regretfully) to Xfinity Mobile. (What a mistake). Xfinity, has 5 of my lines activated, 2 of my lines are stuck and xfinity does not know what-to-do. They open tickets that have a resolution period of 72 hours. When I call to check on the status, they pretend to work on it and then hang up. After hours of standing by on the phone, they closed the ticket due to them not being able to resolve it. They then open another ticket with another 72 hour window. Now I cannot access anything, and worse, I use that number for business dealings and now I am losing out on possible deals worth thousands. What a mickey mouse operation.

And what will happen? I sent the message, no one has responded. How long should I wait?

Here is what I get. 

"I do understand where you are coming from, and our team has escalated it to our proper team that handles the failed ports. We would need to allow the time for the team to work with our support to resolve the port."

Here is my response:
I have been waiting. Really, is it so bad that an entire organization does not know how to resolve this within minutes? Or does xfinity just does not care? Its my life that is affected. I expect this should be escalated. For heaven's sake, I am a new customer and the lack of care is unfathomable. I expect results, not more waiting.

Look at the insanity, trying to reach me on a number that is not activated about a number that is not activated.
