Frustrated with Xfinity Mobile support regarding Trade In

On April 7, 2026 I switched from TMobile to Xfinity Mobile and received an IPhone 17 Pro for both my wife and myself.  I had trade ins for both phones to receive $600 trade in for each IPhone 14.  On April 8, 2026, I sent my IPhone 14 to the Assurant/Xfinity warehouse and immediately received a confirmation email on this shipment.  On April 10,2026, I shipped my wife's phone but did not receive a confirmation email for this shipment.  When i look at the Xfinity website for my phones, it still shows that my wife's phone has not been shipped and says that i have until April 28,2026 to send the phone or lose trade in.   PLEASE NOTE, both have been RECEIVED BY ASSURANT/XFINITY AND I HAVE USPS CONFIRMATION OF DELIVERY.   WHEN I TALKED WITH XFINITY MOBILE SUPPORT, THEY STATED THAT MY WIFE'S PHONE HAS NOT BEEN FOUND IN THEIR SYSTEM AS SHIPPED AND THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO.   I DO NOT WANT TO LOSE THE TRADE IN VALUE OF MY WIFE'S PHONE.  

THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I HAD TO MAIL IN MY TRADE IN.  WITH TMOBILE AND ATT DOING A TRADE IN IS DONE ON SITE AND CREDIT GIVEN IMMEDIATELY.  SENDING IN A PHONE COMES WITH GREAT RISK SUCH AS LOST IN MAIL OR WAITING FOR IT TO BE ASSESSED.

PLEASE HELP AND LET ME POST A DIRECT MESSAGE SO I CAN SEND THE IMEI AND USPS TRACKING CONFIRMATION.   I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT I DID SEND IN THE PHONE SO I CAN GET THE PROMISED TRADE IN CREDIT

user_7aypnp, thank you for taking the time to explain what’s been happening. I can absolutely understand how stressful this is, especially with a trade‑in of this value and after doing everything correctly on your end. You’re right to be concerned, and we do want to help make sure your wife’s trade‑in is properly credited.

Based on what you shared, it’s a good sign that you have USPS delivery confirmation showing the device was received. Situations like this usually require a deeper review, and we can help get that started.

To move forward, please send us a Direct Message with the following so we can review the account and see the best way to assist:

  • Full name on the account
  • Service address
  • IMEI of your wife’s traded‑in device
  • USPS tracking number confirming delivery

We’ll take a closer look and work with the appropriate teams to ensure your trade‑in is accounted for.

One quick note for future posts: our Xfinity Community Guidelines ask that messages not be written in all caps, as it’s considered shouting and can violate community rules. You can review those guidelines here:

We truly appreciate you bringing this to our attention and giving us the opportunity to help. Please go ahead and send that Direct Message, and we’ll take it from there.

Sadly, I am getting pushed from person to person, none of which know what to do and who all seem to have different stories.  A lot of - "not our issue" and finger pointing. Will keep trying.

Good morning, I just upgraded to the 17 pro max, I have email confirmation of when I dropped the other iphone at the post office from xfinity but all of the sudden i have an additional $1000 balance on my mobile account set to come out June 1.  I called and each time after so much time waiting on hold, being pushed around it from queue to queue it seemed like the reps shift was over so he basically said, ahh yes I see you have the email from us and I see it's been delivered but call back in 3 weeks to confirm.  That was 2 weeks ago I need to figure out how to fix this asap.  Can someone here help me out to get it solved? TIA!  The automated email I received I can send to you says,

You're one step closer

Thanks for shipping cc's Apple iPhone 17 Pro. We'll email you again when we receive it.

If your old phone is an iPhone and you haven't turned off Find My, you can still turn it off on iCloud.com.
