Scams Galore & False Promises

Originally signed up for a $40/mo offer for 24 months. Received confirmation via phone (if you can actually get a person on the line) that that was indeed my original contract. Have been spending the last THREE MONTHS regularly disputing charges for a $20/mo increase in my bill. 

Have written confirmation and was admitted to that I was outright lied to TWICE when I was told my account would be adjusted according to my original plan. 

Will be canceling next month since I still couldn’t be promised my original commitment price, and will likely have to have yet another conversation about this continuous scam. 

Do yourself a favor and avoid XFINITY like the black plague. Constantly have outages and they “work to improve your service” at least twice a month. When you’re not spending your day wondering why your WiFi isn’t working, you’re spending it trying to get through to someone via their ridiculous chat line or god forbid on the phone (seriously, good luck - but if you call the number, hit 1-1-2 to connect with someone). Even then, you’ll be lied to and have to rinse/repeat the process the next month. 

It wouldn’t surprise me if they filed for bankruptcy or end up with a lawsuit soon given how shoddy their business practices are. Who knows though, shady businesses have a way of operating longer than they should.

Where are these icons and chat boxes even located? It’s unclear on where exactly I’m supposed to be starting this conversation.
