Official Xfinity material and a 2026 review both describe a 5-Year Price Guarantee on select internet plans, which the post linked to Xfinity Shield. The sources do not explicitly say the guarantee is a feature of Shield itself rather than of internet plans, so the claim holds on a standard reading but leans on that linkage.

An ad makes this claim. It counts as passed on, not against the post.

This claim is about the present, so it is judged as of the day it was checked.
