Stolen iPhone during shipping and Xfinity will not help me

I ordered a new pink iPhone 16 Plus 256G from a Xfinity store to be shipped to my house on Monday October 21st, 2024. The package was delivered by FedEx on Thursday October 24th, 2024. My husband signed for the package and then went inside our home to open it. Upon opening it, he discovered the package was filled with metal bolts and hose clamps instead of the iPhone we ordered. We, then, tried to contact the Xfinity store about the stolen iPhone and they said “it’s been happening a lot recently. You need to file a police report”. Seems fishy to me that Xfinity seems to know this is happening a lot. On top of it all, Xfinity wants to continue to charge us for this phone that never delivered nor has been activated.  This incident has happened almost 2 weeks ago, and I have YET to get a response. I have called the Xfinity mobile number and used the online chat every day since the incident. I've been told different wait times for a solution, and no one seems to know the process. I did my part and filled a police report as requested. Has Xfinity told me what to do with the police report? No.

The fact that Xfinity isn't taking responsibility for this is absolutely absurd to me. I have been a loyal Xfinity customer for 10 years and this is how we get treated. 

I called again today (11/5), and I was informed that I should receive an email by November 7th. However, given the customer service I've received thus far, it's hard to have confidence in that resolution date.

As I stated previously, I’ve called and used the online chat option multiple times. It gets me no where.

My package was received last week and had no phone, but instead, a bottle of handsoap in it ('cause, seriously, you can't make this [Edited: "Language"] up). I've contacted Xfinity 6 times, including sending photos and a police report, and received no response at all.

Ordered (2) iPhone 16 Pro Max on Dec 3rd, received jewelry and beauty supplies instead. When I filed a police report the officer said they shouldn’t be telling people to do that as they will not be the ones investigating and all that needs to be handled by FedEx. So I did file claims with FedEx. I went into the store and they had to charge me taxes for 2 more iPhones, add 2 more lines to my account and hopefully get the old charges removed. This is a horrible situation that Xfinity is making worse. I never wanted these phones shipped but they we’re out of stock and gave me no choice. But when I went into the store a few days later after my packages were delivered they did have them in stock. They should stop shipping these directly to customers. They know there is a problem with the mail, especially FedEx yet still continue using an untrusted carrier. Terrible protocol for a big company.
