Xfinity Home Monitoring Plan Explained
Xfinity Home's monitoring plan is very different from the plans offered by most alarm companies. Instead of multi-tiered plans that let you choose the features you want, Xfinity offers only two monitoring plans. The first plan, for $40 a month, already covers everything from home security monitoring, to home automation and even video monitoring. The second plan, for $50 a month, also includes all those features plus 24/7 video recording. The difference between 24/7 recording and video monitoring is that the latter only records short clips when an event is detected. With 24/7 recording, your cameras will record continuously day and night to capture every moment of everyday, allowing you to look back on moments missed by your sensors. Recordings are stored in the cloud for 10 days, during which you can play back, download, or share parts of the video.
Ways To Save
One thing we like about Xfinity is that it doesn't shy away from offering discounts. If you're looking for the best deals in your area, simply enter your address on Xfinity's website. If you're still looking for other ways to grab discounts, here are a few tips:
Bundle Up
Xfinity is a triple-play company that offers security, cable, and internet. If you bundle all three or any two of these services, Xfinity is willing to give you a discounted introductory price. The discount varies per region, but to give you an example, we were able to get a $70/month quote for Xfinity Home ($40/month), cable ($30/month), and internet ($50/month). That's $50 saved per month by just bundling up services.
Take note that the introductory price is only for the first year. After the initial year, your monthly fee will switch back to the regular price. Unfortunately, you can't cancel service right away because Xfinity Home requires a 2-year contract. Cancelling it without finishing the contract will incur penalties.
Go Paperless
On top of the bundle discount, we were able to get an additional $10 discount on the monthly fee by agreeing to autopay and paperless billing. This applies whether you're bundling up services or getting Xfinity Home only. Unlike the bundle discount, going paperless will subsidize your monthly fee for the duration of your contract.
Military Discount
If you're a veteran or an actively serving military personnel, you're entitled to a $100 Visa Prepaid Card courtesy of Xfinity and a one-time $25 Xfinity coupon. Simply purchase any service with a contract agreement and go to Xfinity's website to claim your reward.
Check Back For Promotions
Xfinity is known for actively offering promotional discounts and offers. If you time your purchase correctly, you'll be able to save even more. That said, we're committed to helping you find the best deal there is. We'll regularly update this review, so check back to see the latest promotions from Xfinity Home.
