never get text message with code to verify mobile number
I've tried everything I've seen saying how to fix it. Still don't get a text message.
The 'direct message' doesn't work - the paper/pencil to start a message isn't clickable.
The AI chat thing is a joke.

In your Forum user Profile Settings, is "Opt Out from Direct Messaging" checked? If it is, clear it, and click Save.
You'd think employees would know these things.

To send a private Direct Message ("DM") to Xfinity Support from any forums.xfinity.com page:
• Click "Sign In" if that prompt is visible
• Click the "Direct Messaging" icon above or https://forums.xfinity.com/direct-messaging
• On the DM page click the "New message" (pencil and paper) icon
• The "To:" line prompts you to "Type the name of a person" but don't do that. It won't work.
Instead, type Xfinity Support there. As you are typing a drop-down list appears.
• Select "Xfinity Support" from the list. An "Xfinity Support" graphic replaces the "To:" line.
• Type your message in the text area near the bottom of the window
• Press Enter or tap the > icon to send it
