Unlock phone
I am beyond frustrated at this point. I paid off my cell phone early in order to finally leave the poor coverage of Xfinity. I was supposed to be sent an unlock email, which I never got. On Friday 4/21/23 at about 6:15am I contacted Xfinity by chat because I had lost my cell service trying to transfer my number.
I was told it would take no more than 24 hours to be sent the unlock code and that most times it was quicker. On Saturday after about 26 hours, I was told that I was lied to and it is 24-72 hours not counting the weekend. That evening I was able to borrow a phone and call, I was then told it was escalated to the "back end team". It is now over 93 hours since I was told it would take 24 hours, this is impacting my work and family since I can't connect my phone to my new QUALITY service provider.
I again contacted chat this morning. I was told they had a problem on their side. I was repeatedly apologized but no solution was offered.
