WiFi home assessment is a joke you don't get free xpods

[RPrieto91]

I am currently on the phone with someone from Xfinity like I have been for the past 3 months. I completed everything and when I call no one seems to know about the xfi pods they say that I have to wait. Ofcourse that’s a great scripted response but no one can ever figure it out. It’s not about the pods it’s about the fact that as a company you think there would be integrity to follow through and not have me wait in limbo and have to work extra and spend hours of my free time to get information while having horrible service that isn’t cheap.

I’m fed up



You can improve your home WiFi coverage with xFi Pods.

They're included with your xFi Advantage service at no extra cost.

This is what I got and went through the link on 11/25/2019
Your Home WiFi Assessment is complete. Over the last 14 days, our advanced algorithm analyzed your use of WiFi in your home. Our results show that your coverage will benefit from a few xFi Pods. Three xFi Pods are available to you at no extra cost as part of your xFi Advantage service.

Hi @RPrieto91 

I've escalated your issue and a pods order should be created for you soon. I'll keep you posted.

In the meantime, would you mind sharing the link you got in your wifi assessment results email with me via private message? 

Thanks,

Hana

A few weeks ago, I upgraded my modem rental to Xfi Advantage. I never got an email about the pods, though I knew about the offer from a page in the website, and this was one of the reasons I decided to upgrade.

I talked to someone from support who told me I had my order for the free pods recorded but I needed to pick them up at an Xfinity store.

After waiting for 50 minutes at the store, the representative told me that this information was incorrect, and that Comcast would no longer give the free pods to Xfi Advantage customers.

I will take the most caritative interpretation, which is that Comcast just changed policies and didn’t update the information they had online on time to avoid misleading me. I thought the Xfi Advantage service was more than just unlimited data, but it turns out that is all there is.

I wasted a lot of time. Hopefully this post will save others the pain.

Can you look at my account and see if I can get the free Pods?
