Phone stolen during shipping, xfinity refuses to resolve the issue
We placed an order at our local xfinity store for an iPhone 15 pro on Tuesday, October 10th. It was shipped immediately and estimated to arrive on October 11th, but when FedEx handed us the box, the box was empty. Noticing that the box was lighter than it should have been, we immediately told the delivery driver, who reported that the phone had been stolen, as did we. Xfinity started a claim, ultimately requiring us to secure a police report for a phone that was never in our possession. After almost daily stops at the local xfinity store for the last two weeks, we finally received an email this week saying that the shipping claim we filed had been accepted. It seemed as if we were nearing a resolution. However, the representatives at the store now tell us that we won't be able to get a new phone until the next billing cycle because that's when the stolen phone will drop off the account or something like that. Again, this is not a phone I ever had in my possession, but xfinity seems more intent on hiding behind vague policies than on figuring out how to live up to our original agreement. I'm very close to just moving all the lines on the account to another provider, but before I do, I wanted to see if anyone has had any success resolving an issue like this? If so, where should I go? Who should I call? How do I get in touch with someone who can make this right? All I want is the phones I ordered at the price I agreed to pay and not to have to think about this on a daily basis. Thank you!

I experienced the same scenario today. Ordered two new phones on Friday, FedEx delivered two empty Apple IPhone 15 boxes today. It was clear from the beginning that the shipping box had been opened and resealed and was much lighted than anticipated. I’ve filed claim, we’ll see if Xfinity resolved this quickly. All this happened because I finally decided to give Xfinity mobile and switch my service from Verizon.

Just ordered an iPhone 15 as a Christmas gift at the local Xfinity Mobile store. They said it could not be shipped to store and had to be shipped directly to my house. FedEx showed up on schedule 2 days later with the package, but nothing inside except for an unsealed EMPTY iPhone 15 box. It was stolen by an employee from the FedEx hub in Austell, GA. Absolutely <EDIT: Language>.

Then they will post this:
Thank you for leaving a comment with your shared concerns. I'm sorry to hear about the difficulty you've had in getting this resolved. To clarify, are you actively in touch with our Xfinity Mobile team? Don't forget that you can call or text them at 1-888-936-4968 as well as send them a message using our Secure Online Chat where an Xfinity Mobile expert is available 24/7! Please let us know if this helps. And feel free to start your own new public post if things remained unresolved. Our Digital Care Team has limited handling of Mobile accounts, but can get you in touch with the proper team when necessary :)
I have called and called and went to the store and texted and NOTHING other than a $992 balance on MY account and two text messages that say things are being investigated but that was over a week ago. If I didn't make a payment in over a week, my service would have been disconnected, I am sure.
I don't understand what there is to investigate, the phone was never delivered. You investigate the transactions between fedex and your company on your own time, not on my dime. [Edited: "All Caps"]

Curious if anyone ever had their matter resolved or do I have to retain a lawyer. I have been going around and around with customer service for over 17 days now. Thanks for any insight, because obviously Xfinity doesn't know nor do they care.
