Billing Error/Fraud charge Xfinity Mobile

Purchased a new iPhone and paid in full. It took a month to arrive, charges verified on credit card. The following month I was charged $50 for a phone payment. After an exhaustive chat message (which I saved the transcript) I was credited $50 and the commitment was made to ensure the problem was fixed. I indicated a healthy skepticism. Sure enough, my credit card was charged and additional $50 for last month and I see the plan to charge $50 next month. I believe the term is "Fraudulent Charge" when a company is informed they incorrectly billed you, when they repeat it. 1. How do I stop the charge; 2. How do I get a refund to my card, now; I plan to put a fraud hold on my cc Monday morning, and will be contacting the BBB. Not sure what else I can do to stop you from cheating this customer.

user_0jvu12 Hello and thank you for reaching out via our Xfinity Community Forums. I am sorry for this recurring billing error and the frustration it has caused. Paying for a device in full should be a seamless experience, and I completely understand why you feel this way after being assured it was resolved. This is certainly not the experience we want for you. I want to make this right immediately. Please send me a direct  message with your full name and address, so I can escalate this right away.

Call the CC company and say you didn't authorize the charge and they should credit you back unless Xfinity fights it.

The fraud hold might not stop it, certain charges as "repeating monthly auto pays" even closing the card and getting a new number does nothing.
People charge things then think they can just close the card and it will stop them from having to pay, so the banks started charging anyways for "certain" types

of transactions.

As an update - I went through the exhaustive process of calling (first month this happened on chat - saved chat, this time with a call - recorded the call) Got the exact same experience. Correcting the issue, will never happen again, crediting account, and.......we have a gift for you.....accept an apple watch and we'll lock you into the very contract you're trying to avoid. Then I responded to the message above with a DM, we'll see what happens there.
