Xfinity Mobile SCAM (Mobile Data Usage)
I had Xfinity Mobile from 2017 until 2 months ago. I was a by-the-gig user. My data usage was under a 1/2 gig for years. Then it started climbing up. I often had to stop using my phone outside of wifi towards the end of the month. From 9/25-11/25 my data usage jumped. One night in November I checked my usage before plugging in my phone and and going to sleep. It was on my wifi. In the morning the mobile data usage had jumped over 1/2 gig in one night while attached to my wifi and no usage. I verified that there were no outages and no updates. Then it jumped another 300 MB in 5 minutes while I was driving to the Xfinity store.
Xfinity convinced me that it was my phone. I purchased a new phone. It required the highest priced mobile plan. However, they lied to me about the cost. 2 days later I returned the phone. It took months to get my plan back to by the gig.
In the meantime, I spent hours trying multiple times in a store, on chat, on the phone, using "On It" via text, to get help. Several times I was told that a ticket was created, but there was no ticket. Weird things started happening, like they turned off my texting and my friends/family received a message that I had blocked them! I could never get an answer as to why the data usage was jumping up so high while connected to wifi. Finally, I saw where the FCC is investigating Xfinity for data loading internet and mobile users.
I've been with a different company for 2 months now. I purposely used my phone more than usual while not connected to wifi. My data usage is back to where it was years ago... around 1/4 gig per month.
The only explanation is that Xfinity is scamming customers by data loading! Quit Xfinity Mobile ASAP!!!
