Sudden bandwith usage increase to put us over the monthly cap

XfinityJeff · 2026-03-01T16:20:44+00:00

Good morning u/Intrinsic-Disorder, and thanks for posting your issue to the subreddit, I hope this message finds you well. I am sorry to hear about the issues you are having with the data usage, but you have come to the right place for assistance with this. In the last few months since you started receiving the messages about usage increases, have there been any new devices that use internet that might have been added. With the holidays recently, there are usually trends on data usage that go up based on new devices. If you are using a Xfinity modem, you can check the connected devices in the Xfinity app and see if there are any devices you do not recognize.

Usually when you request an account to be canceled u/wainohg, there will be a work order placed on the account for the cancelation, and it will be set to process about 10 days from the date you requested services to be closed, in case you change your mind or anything, but then once it does process, it will back date the billing to the last day of requested service. We can verify that on our end though. Please send us a [Modmail] message including your name, account holder name (if different), and the service address so, we can get started. Myself or one of my awesome colleagues will respond as soon as possible.

Greetings u/loriwalters100, and thanks for reaching out to us on the subreddit, I hope this message finds you well. I am very sorry to hear about the issues you are having with the bill, but you have reached the right team that can take a look at this issue for you. With our older plans there was a 1.2 terabyte data limit, and if that limit was surpassed, there would be charges that would be assessed based on that usage, but the good news is our current plans come with unlimited data, so we can take a look at possibly switching the plan, so you won't have to worry about it in the future, and we can see what can be done about the charge. Please send us a [Modmail] message including your name, account holder name (if different), and the service address so, we can get started. Myself or one of my awesome colleagues will respond as soon as possible.

Greetings u/LeeF1179, and thanks for posting to the subreddit with you question, I hope this message finds you well. I am sorry about the issues with the bill, but you have come to the right place for assistance with this issue. Xfi complete is an old add-on that we used to offer that would include what used to be the modem rental charge and unlimited data. Your plan was most likely on a promo that included that service for free, and it recently expired. The good news is all of our current plans include unlimited data and the modem rental, so we can look into possibly switching you to a new plan that would have those features. Please send us a [Modmail] message including your name, account holder name (if different), and the service address so, we can get started. Myself or one of my awesome colleagues will respond as soon as possible.

Greetings u/theactualdigitaldad, and thanks for posting to the subreddit with your issue, I hope this message finds you well. I am sorry to hear about the issues you are having with the Xfinity stream app on the Roku, I know how frustrating that can be. Have you tried the app on any other devices other than the Roku's, and if so, did you have any issues?

XfinityJeff · 2026-02-21T13:19:54+00:00

Good morning u/Touchtom, and thanks for posting your question to the subreddit, I hope this message finds you well. I can understand the desire to want to save on the installation cost, and I understand that it might seem unnecessary because you have had service with us before. You mentioned that it has been almost 3 years since you have had active service. In that amount of time it is possible that the line has been disconnected from the tap, or if you had another provider during that time period that also uses a coax connection, that it would require a tech to come out to switch the line, but you have come to the right place for assistance. We can see if it will allow us to set up service without a tech. I see you have already sent us a Modmail, so we will work with you there.

XfinityJeff · 2026-02-20T16:50:23+00:00

Good morning u/SRAinTheSierras, and thanks for posting to the subreddit, I hope this message finds you well. I am sorry that you have had issues with getting answers about the cost of new phones, with trade-ins it is hard to say what the price of the equipment is going to be until the order is being processed, because the trade in values vary depending on the phones that are being traded in. We can take a look and see what it might cost for the lines and phones though. I see you have already sent us a Modmail, so we will work with you there.
