secondary email password reset

My youngest son has a secondary email on my former account.  When we moved 4 years ago, Xfinity wasn't available at our new address, so we cancelled our service.  The email accounts however are still active and used frequently.  I have been unable to reset the password for any of the secondary email accounts through the Xfinity web page - attempting to access any of the secondary email settings sends me back to the primary user page.  I have now been on hold a total of 4 hours with Xfinity support with no resolution.  I know I'm not the only one dealing with this issue - this is totally unacceptable customer service.

Dealing with the same issue!

There's many 1,000's that are. I believe the management didn't think everything out before making some code changes and it caused this issue.  It took me longer than 5 hours over 2 days to get mine back up and running. It's a shame that it was made on my wife's old business account that's no longer in service as they can't migrate Commercial account email addresses to Residential accounts. If your email address is from another Residential account I'd ask them to migrate it to your new account. FWIW

Oh and all 5 support people I talked to were polite, understanding the frustration and other mental issues because of this happening. I didn't go off the rails screaming at them as they have no stick in the fire that caused this. They all thanked me for being calm, polite and not like many others they have helped that were not nice people.

Finally got to a real person after 5 hours and resolved the problem.
