Comcast has announced new steps to help people stay connected as the nation responds to the coronavirus pandemic. On Friday, the company said it was making two months of broadband service available for free to low-income customers. Now the company says it’s making its Xfinity WiFi hotspots across the country available to anyone who needs them for free, including non-subscribers. In addition, Comcast says it’s pausing its data caps for customers for the next 60 days, and will not disconnect a customer’s internet service or assess late fees if they contact the company and let them know they can’t pay their bills during the same period. Comcast Cable Chief Executive Officer Dave Watson says as the COVID-19 pandemic continues, “it is vital that as many Americans as possible stay connected to the internet – for education, work, and personal health reasons.” This is many companies encourage employees to work from home due to the coronavirus.
