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.

others may have more to add but my thought is you are correct. the only content so far is the Olympic on-demand 4k offerings and netflix. but if you have a set top box on your 4k tv, why not upgrade so when sources are added (if added?) for 4k you are ready to go. it is all the same price.

I would like the Xfinity XG1v4 TV Box self-install kit sent to me.
This post (http://forums.xfinity.com/t5/X1/Xfinity-XG1v4-TV-Box/td-p/2907630) says to create a new post in this forum to request one.
I live in the Boston area.
What other information do you need for me to procure the XG1V4 Box?
