We're considering changing from AT&T to a different carrier and since we get our internet through comcast they're schmoozing us to switch to their service with promises of cheaper internet and better service...typical sales pitch.

Some of the reviews I've read have been mixed and I wanted to check in here and see if anyone has the service and what your thoughts are.

Thanks.

Yes, I have.. been on it for a little over two years and have not had the first issue! Pricing is a lot better than AT&T’s. I would recommend it!

They are just reselling the same phone service of one of the big 2. I don’t know if it is Verizon or AT&T.

Whichever carrier they use, they just put you in a lower data priority than their other customers at times of congestion. It is essentially like having a prepaid phone with Cricket or any other flyby night wannabe cellphone company that doesn’t own their towers or maintain cellular equipment.

FWIW, three of the 4 lines we have is here in GA. My kid, who is in the USAF in NM has the 4th. I guess I need to check the coverage map. It's my understanding that Comcast uses Verizon's towers.

Family has 3 phones on Xfinity and am very happy with the service. Pricing is very good. Uses Verizon towers. No issues or complaints.

Xfinity Mobile app easy to use also.

Yes & I got an email yesterday. They are now $30 a line, all stuff included. That is the same price I get for 2 people at T-mobile & that is w/ my over 55 age discount. I had xfinity mobile for a while & it was pretty good. I only switched to help out a sibling who was under 55.

My wife and I are in the +55 group. What kind of data plan does that include? Hopefully unlimited or a generous amount.

I do not have them specifically but I switched to my Internet provider for cell phone (spectrum) and it has been great. They use Verizon towers. I would research who your Internet provider uses for cell towers. I pay $29 a month for 2 cell phones on unlimited. It's a legit cheat code

Xfinity cell service is great. Much better than ATT.

I use Verizon internet bundled with my cell phone. I live in a 5g area so it’s nice. Wayyyy cheaper than Xfinity.

Cox just started offering cell service too. I guess they are all doing this to combat AT&T offering deals to bundle your wireless service and internet for a discount.

Yes. Mobile works off Verizon towers. Been fine. Price hard to beat.
