Sorry, looks like we are having technical difficulties - Thats the message I get while adding to cart

Trying to upgrade phone, as I work through the screens everything is fine, until I try to 'add to cart' - I get this message:  Sorry, looks like we are having technical difficulties.

I tried all day yesterday, and this morning, still getting the same error.  

Can you advise?

@user_76kfns Welcome to our community forum! Thank you for bringing this to our attention so we can help you get a new phone :). What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far? Have you tried clearing cache and cookies in your browser? Are you noticing the issue on more than one browser? Have you tried the order using another device?

Same, trying to upgrade 4 lines... Interestingly, we were also adding a new line of service and as long as we weren't trying to trade-in to receive the promotion, it was fine and let us order.

Sadly, the direct messages / chat support is even more useless than the broken website at the moment. I guess we'll have to look into another mobile phone service provider in the longer term that actaully has functioning support. Calling 1-800 numbers or visiting a physical store to complete a simple purchase/upgrade is so 2015.

It's still going on today.   I've tried multiple times, different browsers.   Same error.   Very frustrating.

user_yp845s Thank you for letting us know you are running into this error when trying to place your order online. I have found that this can be due to a login issue if you are already a customer, or the cookies. When first visiting, make sure you set your cookie preferences to ensure pages load correctly as you navigate through the order process. If the pop-up does not prompt you to make a selection, you can scroll all the way to the bottom of Xfinity.com to find the preferences link. From there, make sure you are logged in using a device connected to your home network, if possible, and as the primary user or account manager.
