Xfinity is censoring me!

I am writing to express my outrage and disgust at the appalling service and support I received from Xfinity. Despite being a loyal customer paying nearly $300 monthly, I was treated with contempt and disregard, and left with no resolution to my issues.

The problems began when I moved to a new apartment and discovered that my modem did not provide adequate coverage. I was informed that upgrading to Xfinity Connect would provide me with extender pods to extend the network coverage. However, I was not told that I might not qualify for the upgrade after an evaluation.

Over the course of several weeks, I spoke with at least 20 representatives and made dozens of calls, but received conflicting responses and no resolution. I was assured by one representative that the pods would be sent, only to be denied again later. This was not just a matter of miscommunication - it was a deliberate attempt to deceive and mislead me.

To make matters worse, I was disrespected by a supervisor during a chat session. Despite my patience and persistence, I was treated like a nuisance. The supervisor's behavior was unprofessional and unacceptable.

As a result of this appalling treatment, I have decided to cancel all my Xfinity services and switch to another internet provider. I will not be bothering to demand a refund, as I do not expect Xfinity to take responsibility for its actions.

However, I will be filing a formal complaint with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), detailing the egregious practices and unacceptable behavior I experienced as a Xfinity customer. I hope that the FCC will take my complaint seriously and take action to hold Xfinity accountable for its actions.

I will also be sharing my experience with friends, family, and online review platforms, to ensure that no one else falls victim to Xfinity's appalling practices.

Furthermore, I have attempted to post about my experience on Xfinity's social media pages, but my posts have been repeatedly removed without any attempt to address my concerns or offer a resolution. This blatant censorship and disregard for customer feedback only serves to further illustrate Xfinity's complete disregard for its customers.

I hope that someone at Xfinity will finally take my complaints seriously and take action to address the systemic issues that led to my appalling treatment. Until then, I will continue to share my experience with anyone who will listen, in the hopes that it may prevent others from suffering the same fate.

Thanks for adding the post this is not the experience we want our customers to have. If you have our Xfi complete https://www.xfinity.com/learn/internet-service/xfi-complete , our system will run in Wi-Fi assessment on the Wi-Fi coverage over your home which after about 15 days from the date the X5 complete was added to your account you would get a notification that states if you're eligible for the free Wi-Fi boots pods which that message would indicate your Wi-Fi coverage is not very strong through your home it would have a link for you to click on to redeem the free Wi-Fi boost pods.

 If the Wi-Fi assessment that's done states the Wi-Fi coverage in your coverage looks great then the pods would not be recommended.

 

We do hate to lose you as a customer but we do understand there's other providers out there.

 

If you need further assistance I am part of our corporate escalations team and I'll be happy to assist you with any concerns.

 

If you could please send our team a direct message with your full name and full address,

Right. I had the “assessment” that included that I didn’t have a dead zone. Hysterical that you guys would think I would lie and also how on earth would your Xfinity team know how big my apartment is or the layout of my apartment? How would you know if my L-shaped apartment gets WiFi in the kitchen with the modem all the way in my bedroom on the other side? 

a big part of what you’re missing here is that I keep telling you guys I was told that if I upgraded to Xfinity connect, I would get the pods for free. This is absolutely false advertisement. I was completely scammed

You have my contact information (I had to log in to post this). I believe your client retention team should be reaching out to me, and I shouldn’t have to jump through hoops to get in touch. If you want to retain me as a client, you can call me. If not, I’ll proceed as usual.

I’m even willing to restore my cable service if we can find a resolution for my Internet issue (if you guys send me the pods).
