Comcast said it will extend its commitments to help people connect to the internet during the Covid-19 pandemic as millions continue to stay home in the US and workplaces and schools operate virtually. Comcast will continue to provide free internet service for the first 60 days for new Internet Essentials customers, and free access to more than 1.5 million public Xfinity WiFi hotspots through 30 June 2021.
The announcement marks the third time Comcast extended these commitments. These commitments are part of Comcast’s efforts to help families and individual stay connected, and to help empower small businesses during the Covid-19 pandemic.
