They require social for credit check when signing up, then they're now using the last 4 digits for account verification. It seems really awkward and forced. They then also have you provide address, name, phone number when speaking to the CSR, which seems redundant. If I have someone's social, I probably know where they live. And I certainly wouldn't be calling Comcast on their behalf.
- Casseres 12y agoThey probably don't require your Social Security Number. I've avoided giving mine out by paying a deposit to my cable internet company, my electric company, and I use prepaid (which is cheaper than post-paid for the same service) to avoid giving it to a phone company. I also leave it blank on my doctor's forms and other forms. No one has ever hassled me about it.
