5+ years issues with Xfinity prepaid account. No help, ever.

My account has never worked properly. I've never been able to view any page on my account. Never. Any and all attempts to access ANYTHING on my account says, "Whoops, something went wrong!

Sorry—it looks like there was a problem on our end. Please contact support or go back and try again. Or call 855-75-PREPAID"

I've received several credits due to never having good service with Xfinity and I've never been able to use any of them because I've never paid MY bill. I've only ever been able to use the no sign in bill pay. I've spoken to several agents and supervisors and they are always transferring you around from department to department and in the end literally no help at all was given. Similarly my family is low income and we applied and qualified for ACP in November 2023. We spent about 5 months working with agents to get ACP to work on our account then 2 months after ACP was no longer a program at all. I see things about ACP on the website still but whether it's actually a program anymore or not, we couldn't and cannot actually access our account. The fact that it's been over 5 years and I've never gotten any help I'd be inclined to believe this is a predatory tactic to make sure low income and others who opt out of participating in contract plans have no choice but to pay Xfinity the highest price possible every 30 days. (Even though most months are 31 days.)

Notice that none of what I said was addressed at all. I explained I've contacted Xfinity support several times over several years for help with my account and have never been helped. 

"XfinitySara" then replies with 2 links that DO NOT lead to where they say. There are no details about ACP in the first link and there is no direct messaging available in the link provided for it.

 

If it wasn't clear that Xfinity prepaid has no intentions of helping already, now I'm 100% certain of it. I'd be interested to know exactly how legal these practices of purposefully making sure no prepaid member and no low income member can receive any help, any credits, nor any discounts. Someone having this bad of an issue for these many years with no help should prompt the company to contact me to make things right but I know that will never happen and they don't seem to want to actually be contacted by me either.
