Chat or New Message Icon?

Hi, I see some messages where a chat or new message icon was referred as a way to contact the Xfinity Support - for example see the following post. I can't find that icon. I have a similar question on serviceability (or rather relocate our service 1000 ft from where it is currently located).

... I can't find that icon. ...

The Direct Messaging icon for private messages doesn't appear until you have made your first post. You should be able to see it now as long as you are logged in to the Forums (you may need to reload the page).

Please be aware that using Direct Messaging before you have been asked to do so is considered a violation of the Forum Acceptable Use Policy. See https://forums.xfinity.com/conversations/guidelines/xfinity-forum-acceptable-use-policy/602d9c64c5375f08cd574236.

Please wait until you are asked to send a Direct Message before using the facility.

Please be aware that there are 2 kinds of responses in this Forum: Replies and Comments. When you Comment on a post by scrolling down to "Comment on this post here...", I am notified of your response. But if you select Reply, I am NOT notified and may not be aware of your response.

I can't find a new message button either.  Can somebody help me?   I am trying to get appropriate credit for a four day outage - the system is offering me a totally inadequate amount.

@user_59ec6a​ 

Please start your own thread with your issue.  Also, you will need to wait until an Official Employee requests that you send a direct message, otherwise you are in violation of the Forum Guidelines and the Acceptable Use Policy.

I am closing this 4 month old thread to further replies.
