Electronics LPT: If you currently have Xfinity internet (either at or under 300mbps), it might be worth it to cancel it and get NOW Internet for a likely lower price

From what I seen, there are little differences between the two; noticeably the free xfinitywifi hotspot and the xfinity rewards; but outside of that, you might want to switch.

The reason you must cancel it for a few days is due to Xfinity not allowing current customers to get NOW Internet as their traditional internet is a CA$H COW

You need to cancel Xfinity for about a week (according to other testimonies) before you can get now.

hope this helps someone out there

A week without home internet might be rough for a lot of people if that’s what you’re saying is required

Im no expert but hard wiring your PC and using ping plotter to collect proof, sending it to them, the FTC and FCC is what I'd do if they send someone out to your house and it's still not fixed.
