Cablecard Activation

I'm having the same issue that numerous people have listed.  I'm trying to get my tivo cablecard activated and it seems no one at Xfinity has any idea.

In the past eventually i would get through to the cablecard department and they would easily resolve any issue.  But unfortunately that number (and perhaps entire department) is gone.

Can i post the cablecard and Host ID info here for help getting it activated?

Thanks

Hi there, @user_091795 and @vohsh, thank you for taking the time to reach out to us through our Xfinity Forums. I am sad to hear you are experiencing issues with your Cablecard Activation. Did you receive replacement cards? is there a specific error message you are receiving?

I no longer work for Comcast.

... I'm trying to get my tivo cablecard activated ...

What I've always had to do is what the poster in https://forums.xfinity.com/conversations/customer-service/cablecard-activation-site-unreachable/64694d9c61f60420f4d7fc5d?commentId=646a1562ae2d900d21c7a0ec did: keep trying, and trying, and trying until you get a phone or chat rep who knows how to activate a CableCard. Where CableCards are concerned most Comcast reps simply do not know what they are doing, or are deliberately trying to kill off CableCards and the devices that use them.
