These features will be coming soon to new Xfinity Voice customers. This feature can help families cut costs because children can use an iPod touch, for example, to communicate, eliminating the need to subscribe to an additional monthly cellular plan.

Personal Phone Numbers work within the Xfinity Connect Mobile app so users can make calls and text for free when on a WiFi network, either in the home or on the go. Xfinity Voice also now offers up to four Personal Phone Numbers, which can be assigned to family members, and are separate from the primary account holder's phone number. The service works with virtually any phone, including iPhones and Android-powered devices, and when calls are forwarded to the Xfinity Connect Mobile app, customers can even receive calls on iPads and iPod touches. A customer can set up the service to ring on the work phone in their office, their work-issued cell phone, personal cell phone or even a vacation rental's phone. With the Xfinity Voice Advanced Call Forwarding feature, customers can automatically forward phone calls made to their home phone number to up to four additional phones or devices so they will never miss a call. As was announced recently, customers also can send and receive text messages domestically and internationally to more than 40 countries, including Canada, Brazil, China and, soon, Mexico. Alternatively, calls can be made using a customer's 4G or 3G wireless data plan, which don't use wireless minutes. Using their home phone number and the new Voice 2go feature of the newly redesigned Xfinity Connect Mobile app (formerly the Xfinity Mobile app), customers can now make phone calls and send text messages for free and calls made within a WiFi network, such as in a customer's home or on a public WiFi hotspot, are free. "These new tools enable customers to stay connected to their home phone service and take it with them virtually wherever they go."

"We continue to enhance our Xfinity Voice service by adding new features consumers have come to expect from smartphones and mobile technology," said Cathy Avgiris, Executive Vice President and General Manager, Data and Communications Services. The new feature, called Voice 2go', is part of an ongoing effort to expand the variety of ways Xfinity Voice customers can communicate across a range of consumer devices, including smartphones, tablets, laptops and PCs. Comcast, one of the nation's leading providers of entertainment, information, and communications products and services, today announced a new, free Xfinity Voice feature that brings some of the best mobile voice technologies to the home phone and will change the way customers communicate both in and outside of the home.
