Xfinity keeps asking me to return equipment they never gave me

Hello!

I canceled my Xfinity internet services. I keep getting emails/texts asking me to return a cable equipment not received. I was using my own modem/router.

Pls help :(

Hello @user_vbkqq7! I am so sorry for the confusion and the persistent messages you’ve been receiving about equipment returns. Since you were using your own modem and router, there shouldn't be any rental gear to send back, and I know how annoying those automated alerts can be! Sometimes, our system may have other equipment entry, like an old TV box or a Xumo/Flex streaming box. 

Did you happen to have any other services with us, such as Xfinity cable or a Flex streaming box?

@user_vbkqq7 I appreciate the update of only having Xfinity Internet service. Our internet only customers can get a Flex (old name)/Xumo (new name) streaming box, which typically is the equipment I see being referred to when assisting with similar concerns. 

The box in question is the Arris Xi6 which is the last picture on this link: https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/x1-hub-vs-companion-box

- Does that equipment look familiar?
