Xfinity Mobile one bar issue

Hi,

I recently activated an eSIM with Xfinity Mobile on my iPhone 14 Pro Max, and ever since, I haven’t had any signal bars at home. However, when I travel to nearby cities like Ann Arbor, I get full 5G+ service and a blazing-fast internet connection.

At home, I typically see only one bar. Calls frequently drop, video calls are poor, and audio often sounds distorted. When I called customer support, a representative mentioned that nearby construction might be affecting the signal. However, it’s been over 24 hours, and there’s been no improvement in service.

Has anyone figured out what the fix is?

@user_xneuwd Did you previously have cell service at this location with a different cell provider and receive a good signal? In the meantime, you can enable WiFI calling to mediate the signal issue.

Hello @user_xneuwd. Thank you for reaching out on our Community forum. Have you attempted to use Wi-Fi calling as mentioned above? Also did you have more service bars when you first activated the phone, and then it got worse after a day or two?

user_l9pac8, I see you've been having similar issues as well. I wanted to ask some similar questions to get an idea of your situation. Have you always had issues with coverage, or was this something that started recently? Does it matter where you are, or do you average 1 bar at any location?

I am having the same problem with my iPhone 16 max pro. It happened before with my older model but it is very annoying that is happening with my new phone all the time. Every where else I get all my bars but not at home with my pretty expensive Cfinity service. Is it the modem? Please help. Calling Xfinity for help usually takes 3 hrs and I get no solution.

I have the exact same issue in Seattle. They are telling me they're in the process upgrading a nearby cell tower but cannot give me an estimated completion date. They're also suggesting me to use WiFi calling (which I am, obviously), but this doesn't change the fact that the cell service I am PAYING FOR doesn't freaking work. The only way to get any info is by calling (Xfinity Assistant can only railroad you into its limited pre-programmed options), and this last time I called, the person said they were transferring me to another department, but it just took me back to the automated voice menu, and I had to say "Talk to a human" three times all over again and repeat my situation to the next rep. Really abysmal service.

Thanks for reaching out to us if you're  only having issues with low cell signals in your home that would be most likely based on where you live and what cell towers are near your home.

 

Mobile customers with any carrier that live in areas where there is little to low cell coverage based off the towers generally will buy some kind of cell phone signal booster.

 

So, to clarify are you having any low cell signals when you're outside of your home or is it just when you're with inside your home?
