I seem to be having the same problem.  I get a purple screen that says "Xfinity stream" and then three dots that just keep blinking.

user_ury0k4 Thank you for taking the time to reach out to us here on our Xfinity Forums! I can understand how frustrating it would be to suddenly not be able to access Xfinity Stream. Can you provide a little more detail on what's happening and any troubleshooting steps you may have taken? For example, have you tried clearing cache/cookies, what web browser are you using? Have you tried to use a different web browser?

Using safari.  It is set to use www.xfinity.com/stream but does seem to change itself to www.xfinity.com  If I change it to www.xfinity.com/stream manualls sometimes it works.  But then other times it looked as if it was working and displayed all the thumb nails for the various TV shows, but when you click one nothing happens.

Thanks for confirming. Are you able to try a different browser to see if you receive the same screen?

@user_ury0k4 I heard there is a known issue with the xfinity streaming portal, the work around is to use the Xfinity app on mobile device until the issue is resolved

Well, this is sad to hear.  The technical wizards are xfinity can not fix a streaming website in about a week.  Does not fill you with confidence!

Update: I spoke with an Xfinity rep 2 days ago, who confirmed that my problem was real.  He said that they put engineers on my case, and that I would be contacted when they solve my issue.  Have yet to hear back, one week after this all began.

Hello user_ury0k4 ,  our engineers are still working on the issue with the Stream App not working on web browsers. We are still waiting for an update. We appreciate your patience while this gets fixed. Steam App should still be working on the TV/tablet/mobile platforms in the meantime.

At some point I am going to just have to cancel the TV subscription.  I am paying for this and getting nothing.

(4) Days of "Troubleshooting" - PROBLEM STILL EXISTS... I would post the transcript to show the insanity of the "Chat Agent" but let me not bore you! IT IS TERRIBLE! I have not received a single communication outside of the chat log. They are holding multiple chats and confusing my support issue with others. They are forcing me to go through the same schedule of questions each time. Might as well say, "Is the computer plugged in?

I would love to expose this insane chat to someone in Support so please contact me so you can read through my experience!

user_3s0bol Good morning! Thank you for reaching out to our Xfinity Forums Support regarding your Xfinity Stream services. I can definitely see how this would be frustrating. Let's take a look, and see what's going on. I'll need a bit more details. Is this live TV, recording, On Demand? Are there any troubleshooting steps you have tried?
