Need exception for Flip 7 upgrade

Can you please help by making an exception for my upgrade to a Flip 7 ?

I have completely paid for a Pixel 9a.    The trade-in special offer is $900 over 2 years.  

The rep in the local store tried to place this upgrade offer.  She got stopped when the system said this phone costs $100 more than my credit limit. She was unable to submit a credit increase application. The system said I had to have been a customer for at least 12 months.    I first subscribed to Comcast cable in April 2025 (recently.).  I have the “Premium unlimited” plan that allows 2 upgrade each year.  

The rep said I would be eligible for a pricy upgrade in April 2026.  She said the only way to upgrade now is to pick a less expensive phone.  

I am set on the flip 7.  I do not want any other phone that costs less. 

My FICO credit score is high, in the best category.   But the rep says that xfinity will not increase my credit to be $100 higher unless I wait til April 2026.  

Can you please help by making an exception for my upgrade to a Flip 7 ?

Thank you.
