8 years ago

Students can get Xfinity services immediately…

Xfinity Fall RushComcast recently announced its Xfinity Back To School packages for college-bound students in Illinois and northwest Indiana who want some of the fastest Internet speeds available and access to a massive library of TV content.  Specifically created for college students, Xfinity Back To School packages, which include Xfinity Internet and TV service, coincide with the school year and run on a month-by-month basis for nine-months.

Comcast is hosting several campus events at schools in Illinois and northwest Indiana to make it easy for students to sign up, get their equipment on the spot and start their service immediately. Students also can pick up cool swag at the events and enter to win high-end prizes.

“Today’s college students need fast Internet speeds and access to news and information,” said David Williams, vice president of Sales and Marketing for Comcast’s Greater Chicago Region.  “Our Back To School packages not only offer great value for students, we’ve made it easy and convenient for them to pick up their equipment and get up and running right away.”

The three Xfinity Back To School packages include:

  • $79.99 a month with Digital Starter TV, HD DVR, HBO, Showtime and Xfinity Performance High-Speed Internet with download speeds up to 25 Mbps
  • $69.99 a month with Digital Starter TV and Performance High-Speed Internet with download speeds up to 25 Mbps
  • For extremely fast speeds, students can opt for Digital Economy TV and Blast! Plus High-Speed Internet with download speeds up to 50 Mbps

Restrictions apply. Back To School offers are ONLY for students and new customers not currently subscribing to any Xfinity services.

Students unable to attend one of the campus events can visit a local Comcast Service Center, call 1-800-XFINITY (934-6489) or visit www.xfinity4college.com for more information or to order service.
