This is how I fixed my "no show" reminders. I had had 3 xfinity updates and 1 system update but nothing worked. I started to set a reminder and noticed that the "display" said "All TVS". I changed it to "This tv" and then hit confirm again. After doing this the reminders worked. The only problem was that you have to change the display on every reminder. It is set up to say "all TVs" and I can't find a way to change it, but it's better than nothing. Hope this helps.

Thought this was fixed. Worked couple of days and gone again. Employees don’t have any idea how to fix when you call. Only reboot system again. This doesn’t fix it.

@funbugin  Apologies - as mentioned last week  - 

 

We started rolling out the update about 2 weeks ago and are looking to finish next week so some areas are likely feeling the improved performance already.

 

We’ll be monitoring our networks to make sure everything continues to roll out smoothly.

 

Thanks again for your patience and persistence.

 

As per the above, should be finished for all areas this week.

Thanks. My point was they began to work for a few days and disappeared again. We appreciate your work!

They worked for a few days, but now are not working again. Looks like you didn't fix it right.

Thankfully they seem to be working however I have 2 complaints. Shouldn't the pop-up reminder display the CHANNEL it is airing on? Also, shouldn't the remain on the list until the end of the program? It would also be helpful if the popped up on the bottom of the screen instead of obscuring what you are currently watching.

Sorry to say, reminders are hit and miss after abt 3 weeks of working fairly consistently.

Program reminders are now hit or miss.  Worked for about the last 3 weeks.  They are single reminders, not series reminders.  Tvs frequently go to black screen.  Today it went to snow.  And I swear they'll just shut down.  Everything is slower: using last watched, checking the guide.  It just takes a bit to catch up to what I want to do.  I go from being creeped out to rather aggravated.

Generally, the Reminders issue that was brought up in this thread has been resolved on our end. 

 

From our Reminders team  below: 

 

We’ve completed our architecture update for reminders and also did a review of our general reminder health - our systems seem healthy overall. 

 

If others have  some specific examples for reminders that aren’t showing, we can do some additional research. 

 

Example - Reminder for Situation Room on Tuesday 5/26 didn’t go off.

 

If we can pinpoint some cases we can dig a deeper dive to see what went wrong with those specifically.

 

Thanks for your patience.

Comcast won't let me set up reminders. I go into the bell click to remind and nothing happens. It doesn't turn off or set it up.
