The worst customer servise you will find

I spent over an hour tonight playing phone tag with customer service. First I was given incorrect information by the woman I was initially speaking with. Then when I was connected with someone else they said the exact opposite of what the first repressive told me. This 2nd individual was able to help with my billing and service issue, but again gave me incorrect information about how to get ahold of them after I paid my bill. I was stuck in a loop with the awful automated system for 10 minutes, as it wouldn't re-connect with anyone from customer service. It was a pain. I still was never able to speak with someone about my ongoing issues, and was left with the situation unresolved. I am angry with being told the wrong information twice, and being stuck in a loop becuase the terrible automation system you use is very unfriendly to users. 

A better system is needed, and it should be easier to connect with a real human. Being forced to speak to a computer makes me even more frustrated to begin with when I'm already mad about a technical issue. Hire more and better humans, and phase out this computer nonsense.

Good evening user_l84te8, thank you very much for taking the time out of your day to share your thoughts here on our Xfinity Forums.  This is never the experience that I'd want for you as our valued customer, and am happy to help here with whatever questions you have.  You mentioned both billing and service/technical issues, so I'd like to address all of these as completely as possible. 

 

Please send a direct message by clicking the chat icon in the upper right corner of the page, clicking on the pen and paper icon, and then entering “Xfinity Support” in the “To” section. Please include your name and address, and we can get started anytime.

While i appreciate this response, being in a random chat with xfinity support isn't helpful. I tried this several times in the past and tonight and had technical issues which is why I called xfinity's support phone line. Which should have been helpful, but wasn't.

If you have the contact information for a specific PERSON I'd happily reach out. But given the poor track record of your automated and technology based systems I won't be doing that. If a human representative wants to speak with me and provide a contact number or email i will reach out to solve my ongoing concerns, but this response doesn't encourage confidence that a human will able help me and that i'll be directed at yet another failing computer system.

Again, no. I won't be doing that. 

Please provide the contact information for a real person working in customer service, or have them reach out to me directly. 

Continuing to pressure me to use your automated computer systems feels inappropriate when I've told you "no" several times. I want a real person to speak to, not a random person thought a computer who could be AI for all I know. 

Trying to force customers to speak through technology when they want to talk to a real human feels counterproductive. Hire more real people and this won't be issue.

@user_l84te8 I apologize. We are the Digital Care Team, and we work on this platform to assist Xfinity customers with billing and service issues. If you choose not to get assistance through here, that's not a problem. You can visit a Xfinity Store near you. You may find one here: https://www.xfinity.com/local/index.html, and I would recommend scheduling an appointment. Otherwise, you would have to call Customer Service at 1-800-266-2278. You have to follow the prompts to be directed to the correct agent for assistance.

I did this earlier which lead to my post here. The prompts directed and the people you have answering these systems is the issue becuase they seem to be providing inacrutate information like i experienced tonight. 

If someone higher up in customer service could contact me that would be appreciated, so I'm not continued to be direct in these endless circles. Because it appears to me that these departments don't talk eachother, and i would like to speak to someone who can see the whole of the issue here.
