Why can't I change my plan online? I AM NOT IN A CONTRACT

My contract expired and I have already paid for one month of service out of plan and the next bill is coming 12/16. I have been trying to review plans, but I get the below message every time. I saw where someone said you can't make changes if you are in a CONTRACT but as I said I am NOT in a CONTRACT; my CONTRACT ended and I saw an increase of approx. $50 per month, so I want out of my current plan/line-up. 

I do not want to spend time talking with an agent who doesn't speak good English and have them make changes to my account that were not agreed to like the last two times my contract ran out.  I want to take my time and study the plans on my own before making a choice.

Why am I not allowed to see the plans? If I cannot view plans on my own then decide, then I'll be forced to leave Triple Play and sign up for internet only. I feel like this is a very shady practice on the part of Xfinity and I have to believe there are consumer protections against not providing customers with published plan options. Under the circumstances, I'd be happy to file that formal complaint.

@XfinityAlyssaA​ I'm still not understanding why I can't see all the plans at a glance and compare. I feel like Xfinity is not engaging in a fair business practice.

I completely understand wanting to review the plans online @hoffmancr. To confirm, are you logged in to your online account when browsing plans? May I also ask if you have tried a different web browser?

Yes, I am logged into my account. Then I click Change Plan at the top which offers multiple options:

1. New Deals (see offers) 

2. Customize Your Plan which has links to Manage TV Plan, Manage Premium Channels, Manage TV Equipment and Upgrade Speed of Internet. 

Every single option outlined above results in the message below.  I have gone through this process in Edge and Google Chrome with the same results.

Never mind, I'll have my husband call tomorrow and switch our plan to internet only. If I can't see to compare our options, then there are effectively no options.
