Xfinity trade-in phones must be shipped within 21 days after your new device ships.
Important Shipping Rules
  • Start Date: The 21-day countdown begins the day your new phone leaves the warehouse (shipped), not the day it arrives at your door.
  • Alternative: You can also drop off your trade-in device at any local Xfinity Retail Store instead of mailing it.
  • Preparation: Remember to back up your data, sign out of accounts (like Apple's Find My), and factory reset the phone before sending it.

@XfinityDemetrise​ i was told by a chat bot on the xfinity app and by online that i can bring the phone in to an xfinity retail store, but when i did, they said that its only for in store purchases.. so i missed the deadline
