Automatic payment keeps turning on and off

My automatic payment did not go through last month because for some reason something on the app is turning it off. It would say it’s on on my app but the agents see it as off. I don’t want this to reflect on my credit score so please keep it on. I just found out that you get charged extra $10 if your automatic payment is off. I’m not sure why this keeps happening. My app says it’s on so please keep it that’s way.

@user_a51406 Thank you for reaching out to the Digital Care Team. I hate to hear this has been your experience and would love to investigate this for you! We do not have the ability to turn automatic payments off, so if it is happening online we would need to take a deeper look into it.

I've had the same problem - twice. The first time I set it up with an agent who gave me a surprise call because my account was overdue. After giving her payment info, she assured me automatic payments would be in place moving forward. I then went in to the account for something else, and saw it wasn't place so I set it up again, and even received a confirmation email for auto payment on Oct 24.

When I logged in today for something else, I saw the account was overdue again! The billing shows my stored payment method with "automatic payments" next to it. But there is another tile that shows Automatic Payment is off. 

Honestly Xfinity, this is pretty simple stuff and you are making it very confusing for customers who are trying darn hard to give you money.

This keeps happening to me as well. Obviously something is wrong and Xfinity doesn't care, or knows and is acting maliciously which I fully expect from them. If I had any other options where I live, I'd never do business with any NBC/Comcast company again.

Hello, @pzwhite. I'd like to look into your payment concerns further and help figure out why autopay is not staying active for you. I know it's important that the feature stays on, so it doesn't lead to a missed payment! Please send us a Direct Message with your first and last name. The message icon is located at the top right of the Community Forum page, clicking on the message icon will allow you to initiate a chat conversation with us directly. Please ensure you are sending your message to our 'Xfinity Support' handle. 

I no longer work for Comcast.
