Comcast plans Xfinity Store in Bloomingdale

BLOOMINGDALE - Comcast announced plans to open an Xfinity Store in Bloomingdale at 152 Gary Ave., in the Stratford Crossing Shopping Center.

The 4,200-square-foot store, which is slated to open this summer, is designed entirely around the needs of customers, providing them with the opportunity to explore, learn about and interact directly with the latest Xfinity services or get help if they need it.

The store will feature comfortable seating areas and contemporary displays to give visitors hands-on experience with Xfinity's range of products and services, from the company's mobile phone service, Xfinity Mobile, high-speed internet and cable TV, to its home security and automation platform, Xfinity Home.

The store also will feature iPads and other mobile devices visitors can use to explore Xfinity's mobile apps.

"The goal of our stores is to give customers an awesome experience," said John Crowley, Comcast's Greater Chicago Region senior vice president. "The stores give our employees the ability to demonstrate the latest Xfinity products and services and educate visitors about how to take advantage of all of their features and benefits."

Along with product and service demos, customers will be able to pay bills, pick up and return equipment and get assistance from trained, knowledgeable technology and service consultants. In addition, there will be a dedicated space within the new store where visitors can learn about Comcast Business' commercial services and discuss their business technology needs with an expert.

The store will have around 15 full- and part-time employees. Store hours will be Mondays through Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Sundays from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
