Comcast offers additional option for cash customers

Comcast customers who prefer to pay their TV, Internet or phone bills with cash can do it at more than 7,700 participating 7-Eleven stores through a partnership with PayNearMe.

With most 7-Eleven stores open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, cash-paying customers now have an around-the-clock option to pay their bills close to home.

Here’s how it works:

• Go to the ‘Pay Bill’ section of the XFINITY My Account app and select the new ‘Cash via PayNearMe’ option.

• Choose the amount you want to pay and follow the instructions provided by PayNearMe until you receive a barcode.

• Head to a nearby participating 7-Eleven store, scan the barcode on your phone and pay the amount you selected. There is a $1.25 PayNearMe convenience fee per transaction.

7-Eleven will provide you with a paper receipt and you will receive a digital receipt on your phone confirming the payment amount.  The payment will post to your account within 48 business hours.
