What router are you using?  Are you setting a PD hint to ask for a /56?
When I had Comcast, the default was a /64, but if you sent a /60 hint
that's what you'd get.  IIRC it took a little help to change, because
their DHCPv6-PD would send you the same prefix, ignoring the hint, if
your DUID was in the DB (although maybe a proper release/request
worked?).

I've always set a hint since, and get a /56 from GFiber.
