Bill has doubled in the last month with no warning

My internet bill went from $60/month to $110/month with no reason and no warning. What the heck is going on? How can I get my bill back to a manageable amount?

@user_hni0ec Thank you for taking the time to reach out to us here on our Xfinity Forums. It sounds like a promotion may have expired. Typically you'll see a notice that your promotional rate is expiring a month or two before hand on page 3 of your billing statement. You can easily access your billing statements with our amazing Xfinity app. 

I'm happy to take a look and see what new promotional offers we have for you. Please send us a DM to Xfinity Support with your full name and address.

To send a direct message:

Click the "Direct Message" icon or  https://forums.xfinity.com/direct-messaging
Click the "New message" (pen and paper) icon
The "To:" line prompts you to "Type the name of a person". Instead, type "Xfinity Support" there.
As you are typing a drop-down list appears. Select "Xfinity Support" from that list.
An "Xfinity Support" graphic replaces the "To:" line.
Type your message in the text area near the bottom of the window 
Press Enter to send it

Same thing happened to me. My bill went from $35/mo to $86. Needless to say I've had it with xfinity. Every year I've had to go in and change my package to get a decent deal, now cheapest package that is 4x slower than what I have is still nearly double what I was paying. This is ridiculous. This is as bad as AT&T.

Ends up, after canceling my account, it was easy to get someone on the phone to discuss. I have been getting a call every week from someone at Xfinity now trying to make me a deal, even after I asked them to take me off their calling list. New issue unlocked! Definitely not going back.

@XfinityChelseaB​ Hi, this also happened to me and I don't want to pay $120 for my internet. I am not seeing the option to send a direct message, can you help me see if there's a promotion to lower my bill?

I would also like to speak to a representative for what promotions I can now use, now that mine may have expired. My bill has also doubled in the past few months.

My Bill has increased twice now within two bills. I went from $85 a month to $146 last month. Now this month just came out of my account and it has increased once more to $152. I am very confused at this moment. I can understand if a promotion had ended and it increased once, but not twice between two bills. I have tried calling the number to get help, but I have only dealt with a bot that is unable to assist me. I have tried to use the site, but it has not been helpful in my efforts to figure out why the bill has increased nor how to fix it. I have run myself crazy trying to figure this out, so please, I need any help I can get right now to either understand why my bill has increased twice within two months or how to change my plan. I have tried to do this on my own on the site, but nothing I do has worked.

Please if anyone can help me I'd really appreciate it.

We’re so sorry to hear about your billing frustrations, and we completely understand how confusing this situation must be. We’re here to help get this sorted out for you.

 

The double increase you’re seeing could be due to a promotion ending followed by adjustments in service fees, but we’d like to take a closer look at your account to give you a clear breakdown of the charges and ensure there are no errors. If you’d like to explore ways to lower your bill, we can also review your current services and check for any available promotions or plan adjustments that better fit your needs.

 

Can you initiate a direct message and start with your full name and address? To start a direct message, you must be signed in. Please click the "Direct Messaging" icon in the top right of the page next to the bell, and send your message to "Xfinity Support". Talk to you there!

I have just experienced the same thing, $55 to $104. How can I speak with someone about this? I can only find the AI assistant on the Xfinity website and feel frustrated.:(

Hello, @kenzief. We are happy to go over your bill with you and look for any available promotions that can save you on that. You can see your detailed billing statements in the Xfinity app. You can review promotions and make changes using our Plan Builder. I see that you already sent through a direct message so I will continue there. 

Please also note that sending unsolicited private messages to myself or any other user is a direct violation of our forum guidelines. You must first create a Public post requesting assistance, and once a Comcast verified employee responds and asks for a private message to be sent, you can then proceed with doing so. We are happy to continue helping you, but please keep that in mind for the future.
