This is not fiber internet! Same old coax. Very asymmetric connection with 1gbps down but only 40mbps up

Xfinity Internet is powered by fiber and connected to premises by coaxial cable
One drawback to this is upload and download speeds are not symmetric - the headline advertised speed is the download speed, but upload speeds are typically significantly lower. For example, looking at the Broadband Facts of the 1 Gig plan in my area, they specify typical download speed at 1170 mbps and typical upload speed at 117 mbps. In the past in different areas, I've seen advertised typical upload speeds as low as 20-40 mbps.
That may be perfectly fine for many people, in which case this is a good deal. But make sure to take a look at the upload speed for your area and confirm that it's fast enough for your needs.

I was able to add the $50 plan then as other users stated when I got to the create user account page, I just logged in and I was able to fully check out
and get the $50 gift card. I wanted to keep my Diamond status with Xfinity as you get Peacock Premium for free regardless of that 2 years.

I guess I should have tried to initially try a price match on the current account, but having dealt with Comcast for years it is just easy to cancel a account.
I was able to keep my Diamond status, so Peacock Premium will not turn off after 2 years and got the $50 gift card.

So I asked them to give me the account information I needed so I could port the number out and then port it back in under my new account number. They set things up on their end and added my phone's IMEI so the free mobile line would be ready to receive the number once I ported it back.
When I got home, I ported my old mobile line to Tello for $10 and activated it on my iPhone. After that, I got the port-out details from Tello and used the Xfinity app to activate the line on my new account number and port the number back. I ended up keeping the same number and the free unlimited line.
It was a bit messy and took some research, but everything worked out. Extra cost: $10 to port to Tello + $25 Xfinity activation fee.
I'm not sure what they're shipping to me since I have my own gear... and hopefully I can wait 90 days to activate the mobile line, let's see how it goes. i believe someone said the duplicate account will automatically resolve itself after a few days?

I asked what happens with my Xfinity Mobile line and she only told me to call Mobile support, which I don't really see a need to do.
