Cancel Account/Direct message

Supposedly I need to send a direct message to cancel my account however the DM button is nowhere to be seen. All the support documents show a message button next to the top right notification bell but its completely gone for both desktop and mobile.

Concern moved here to the Customer Service help section for greater exposure to Comcast corporate employees (The Digital Care Team) for assistance.

Be advised that sending an unrequested direct message to the support team is a violation of their forum guidelines. It may get ignored.


Please see this post about direct messaging the support team;

 A representative will reply to you here shortly.

I'm not sure how its a violation when I see dozens of references to doing just that from xfinity reps

Your link is also broken.

I'm going off of this how to guide:

My problem seems to have been resolved (for now at least). The message icon is back but I'm still concerned that it just wasn't there yesterday.

Did you miss this part in the link you posted? "To help maintain our forum design, we ask that you never send unsolicited/unwanted direct messages to any employee (even to the Xfinity Support handle) unless specifically asked to do so." 

Your link is also broken.

It works for me.

I am not a Comcast Employee.
I am a Customer Expert volunteering my time to help other customers here in the Forums.
