Xfinity call guard - Receiving error (Your plan option does not include Xfinity Call Guard)

I recently changed my plans to the Premium Unlimited level for two of my three lines.   I downloaded the app and when I try and go thru the setup process, I am receiving an error that states:  Your plan option does not include Xfinity Call Guard. Xfinity Call Guard is only available for customers on select Xfinity Mobile plan options.  I rebooted the phone and deleted and re-downloaded the app but the error remains.  I was advised that this was one of the benefits of upgrading my line to the Premium Unlimited level of service.  Is there a waiting period before this feature is available to me since I switched levels of service in the middle of a month and if not, can someone from Xfinity tech support help me get this resolves so we can use the service on the two Premium Unlimited lines?  Thanks in advance!!

Hi there, @user_e52051! Thank you for upgrading 2 of your lines to Premium Unlimited. You are correct that Call Guard is a plan feature. Are you seeing the error as soon as you try to login to the Xfinity Call Guard app? When you check the 2 lines in your Xfinity Mobile account is Premium Unlimited reflecting as the plan?

Thanks for your message. I launch the app and press get started and it generates the message that I entered in the title.  It gives me two options, learn more and got it.  Can’t get past that point.  Looking at the Xfinity app, it shows the 2 lines as premium unlimited and the third line as by the gig which is correct.  I did get a prompt to upgrade the call guard app this morning on my iPhone and did that hoping it would fix the issue but it did not and I am still experiencing the same error

@user_e52051, thanks for that information. I would like to check your account to confirm if your account is showing that you're on what is called a 5th Generation mobile plan. This is required for Call Guard to work.
