Xfinity chat support scam

A chat agent just went through pretending to help me and in the end promised to fix my problem and lower the cost of my program. He then texted me a link to what appears to be an Xfinity-sanctioned page that asked for my approval for a contract. Now I am paying two separate bills that add up to over $150 per month (nearly double what I paid before and triple the offer I was given)

This was the most disingenuous interaction with a support person I have ever experienced.  

I will be contacting the IL Attorney General's office with the chat notes, screenshots, and images along with my impression of this scam. I'm certain I'm not the only person who has been targeted.
