Comcast Targets Mobile Customers With BYOD Offer

Comcast will give customers a $100 prepaid card through Aug. 4 when they bring in an eligible, unlocked Android phone, activate a new line and port their number to Xfinity Mobile, it said in a "BYOD" (bring-your-own-device) promotion. The offer applies initially to Samsung Galaxy S9, S9 Plus, S8, S8 Plus, Note 9 and Note 8 devices. The operator expects to be able to activate more Android devices on its mobile network later this year.
