DVR storage limit changed after service change

The storage on my DVR was reduced sharply to 20 hours. This occurred after adding phone services to my plan. The service changes were framed to me as an upgrade. 20 hours on the DVR is clearly a downgrade from what I had previously. Can Xfinity please restore the previous DVR storage settings (100+ hours)? 20 hours is extremely limited.

Same thing happened to me last year when a foreign agent totally messed up my account. Both times I have used chat, they have totally messed up my account. I will never use it again. Now I have to pay an extra $10 to get storage that is already on the device. I also lost my Netflix and my inside wiring which is no longer available. Really ticked me off.

It seems just recently my DVR capacity was reduced to 20 hours with no warning or explanation. I called for support and all they want to do is upsell me a "back to" 150-hour DVR capacity.  I love how Xfinity can change the rules and my cost at their whim.
