Moving to Chicago - does Xfinity work with Tivo?

Yes, assuming you can get the tech to bring Cable Cards during the install or get them from an Xfinity store. It’s been a long time since I tried either but it shouldn’t be a problem.

 

Yes, & you will NO longer have to deal with Tuning adapters, since Comcast has never used them.
HOWEVER, do be aware that there are several newer channels (mostly HD versions of SD channels) that are IP-only, & are viewable ONLY with Comcast's X1 boxes, or can be viewed on Roku & Firesticks.
Here's an example of some of the IP-only channels:
Comcast IP not QAM?

 

In terms of CableCARDs, Comcast has been a great company to work with over the years. They even have a dedicated CableCARD hotline ... (877) 405-2298.

Won't that be the big question? Will they allow cable cards for new customers?

I'd probably call them now and see. Or try to set up service now and see what happens.

Here’s a recent post from someone just outside Chicago who was able to get a card at a store.

Comcast cable card use until 2031?

 

I bought a Bolt in 2019, picked up a cable card at the Comcast store in Morton Grove, and called the number Comcast gave me to activate it. It was really no problem.

 

I'm in the exact opposite boat. I'm moving from Chicago to Arizona next year. Will Cox provide me with CableCARDs for my TiVos in Scottsdale? This thread makes me very nervous ...

It's Official COX San Diego phasing out Tivo support
