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.

It's a silly ask when its necessary to send them a direct message to close an account but it does not say its a "violation" in that guide.  

I don't write their articles or make their rules.

And I'm glad that old link worked for you, however I can see that you edited your post to remove it and replaced it with the one that I provided. 

Not so, sorry. That's not what I edited.
