Xfinity 4k - XG1v4 Cable Box Availability
Called Xfinity and asked about the availability of XG1v4 cable boxes at my location (WA state), which has the capability to stream 4k content through Netflix. Was assured, with repeated confirmations, that they were available to the local service store, would just have to bring in my existing cable box and exchange it. Bought a nice LG OLED TV, upgraded my Netflix account to receive Ultra HD, and took my box down to the local service center for exchange, per customer service direction. You can probably guess what happened next - "sorry, we don't have any 4k boxes, don't know when we will". Anyone else been misled by the Xfinity garbage customer service? Went online to see what lies they convey on their website regarding this matter, and found this: https://www.xfinity.com/support/cable-tv/uhd-4k-faqs/ More misleading BS. Wanted to warn anyone else potentially in the same situation as myself not to believe anything you are told or read about the availability of XG1v4 boxes; go to your service center first to confirm.

Hello ComcastElla,
Kindly assist me with ordering a new XG1 version 4 DVR box and a self installation kit. It’s frustrating not to be able to view available 4K content at the highest resolution on my 4K televisions. Moreover, my current X1 DVR frequently drops live feed sound and lately records blank video instead of scheduled programs.

i currently have the x1 operating system 4k dvr box for my main bedroom tv. but i want to get a non dvr x1 operating system 4k box for my other tv in other room. are there any 4k non dvr boxes available and one that would not require me to hook up about 150ft of ethernet wire to the box.
if a official comcast employee can please reply or imbox me i would appreciate it like someone like @CCElla for example...
as i have 2 4k tvs and the box currently hooked to the one tv is just the regular tiny x1operating system box thats non 4k
also does anyone know of any way to get the ID channel back in the upper tier lineups besides dropping down to the lowest tier to get that channel and also the Wgn channel and military history channel
