Deal Details
I had 1-gigabit internet with Xfi Complete (for unlimited data) for a couple of years and was paying $115/month. I was tired of spending so much, so I called to decrease the plan or find any promotions. I got an upgrade to 2-gigabit with a 2-year contract for $88.

The 2-gigabit plan was not an option online.
Number I called: 1-800-934-6489
(I had to go through many menus to talk to a real person.)
Your mileage and availability may vary.

Note: I understand that I will not even be able to utilize 2-gigabit on most of my devices, but I plan to run some new CAT6 and get a 2.5Gb switch for my primary desktop.

couldn't replicate the deal but they offered to let me downgrade from 1GB/s to 300MB/s and save $1 per month or "switch" to an identical plan for an extra $29 a month ...

No thanks!

I pay $50 a month for 1GB with xfinity but it's not a monopoly here so they have to fight with Shentel and GloFiber

So you were on contract for 1gb @35 and now it's going to $80? I'm on gig extra but my deal is ending in another month and I'm sure it's going to jump up huge. I'm going to see if I get snag a new deal tomorrow. I'm also in MI.

Depends on the your market division and whether your area has been upgraded to midsplit/FDX(Docsis4.0).
Most Comcast plans are/were limited to 35mbps tops on the upload prior to their misplit upgrade. If your area has been upgraded to midsplit, you'll get at least 100mbps upload on most plans Connect More(200mbps down) and above. Gigabit gets 175mbps up & Gigabit x2 gets 300Mbps.
If you're REALLY lucky and live on an FDX area, you'll get symetrical for all the plans. Of note, you'll need to use their gateways to get these new uploads or modems designated as "Next Gen Capable" on their lists. As For FDX symetrical, you're stuck using their equipment as there are no Docsis 4.0 modems available to the public yet.

Not sure if it's the same with their 2 gig plan, but their 1 and 1.2 gig plan have atrocious upload speeds (like 40mbps). I host a server that a lot of my family accesses, FIOS having equal upload and download speed is important. If you're only concerned with downloading it's not as important.

Xfinity smart. Huge cancellations fee I am sure. ATT fiber is coming in strong in MANY areas and offering $65 for true 1 gig. Which destroys fake cable 2 gig old technology higher latency. By xfinity offering this they are hoping less customers even think about switching let alone switch

So the rep messed up my order, dropped me from Gigx2 to just Gig, no free modem rental, and my bill is about the same as before. Can't find a rep that speaks English well enough to fix the issue!!!!!!

If it's any consolation, giving you trash service is extremely profitable for large shareholders.

$88 is lower than what I'm paying for 1.2Gbps but what's it balloon to after 2-years?

This deal is for unlimited. Cap doesn't apply.

Oh, nice. Although, it is still not go if I have to "rent" comcast equipment, even if it is "free".
