XRE 250

We swapped out our standard box for a new X1 box. We get an XRE 00250 error and message that tells us to reset.
1 week later, 3 hours on the phone a 2 hour tech visit and 2 hours on the chat line. ( first phone tech was condescending and arrogant said my HDMI cable or Samsung TV was defective. Still had old box & it worked.
Still see same error. Last chat & tech said it had been escalated, but no calll back, no e mail.

According to this article:

https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/x1-errorcode-xre-00250-this-device-needs-to-be-activated-before-we-can-continue

 

The device is not activated so it may not be on your account yet. Contact the Billing Dept to resolve the issue.
