Was lied to about buyout

I was told xfinity would pay off my remaining balance(phone) in order for me to switch to them from Verizon.

When will this be fixed? Comcast installed a new part after removing the housing. The housing is too small to fit so they left it like this. Been like this for over a week now.

Xfinity is a SCAM. I regret switching from Verizon.

Xfinity's customer service is an absolute nightmare and the source of all my problems. Xfinity will NOT take responsibility for the mistakes of their agents. TL;DR for anyone reading this: 1.
