Xfinity sent an eSim to the wrong device

I got a new device from Xfinity and it was active for a few hours then at around 1:00am I recieved an email asking me to activate the eSIM in the old device that I was going to trade in. I now have no working devices and no way to call support. I have been to the physical location several times and chat support has not been helpful.

I had one working device before calling the mobile sales team. Now I have two devices that do not work and cannot call anyone. I have spent hours in the chat. I just want to port my number over to another carrier at this point but I cannot do that because I do not have a device that can receive the PIN.
