Xfinity customer service is nonexistent

I pay just short of $400 for service and I can’t even speak to a human?! My cable goes out while I’m watching and I assume it’s a problem in my home after checking the app for outages. I call customer service and of course I can’t reach an actual human being and am directed to the app. I go to the Xfinity app and use the virtual assistant and run the troubleshooting to no avail so I call customer service again only to be repeatedly disconnected after the same instruction to use the app. So I use the app again with the same result and then call customer device again - you get the picture. Finally after 90 minutes I can get in the que for customer Service to speak to a human. The wait time is 120 minutes.. After 30 minutes I decide to try the virtual assistant while I’m on hold only to find out that it’s actually an outage. So Xfinity updated their system and after almost 2 hours and all of that  BS  it was an outage. NO customer service and no human being. This is what I pay more than $4600 a year for?!? I’ve never seen a company put so many things In place to prevent customers from actually interacting with customer service agents.  Needless to say I’ll be switching my service soon.

@XfinitySara​ thanks for the response but the reality is that SELF HELP is available through the app and on the site. Actual human interaction is not. It’s sometimes more time consuming, frustrating, and ultimately futile to be forced into an automated system.
