Thank you for reaching out @user_os8kvc. Can you provide additional information for your question? If you are speaking of a verification code we can send emails, for customer approvals links we also can send emails as well.

In changing personal information I was asked to receive a text to confirm. I do not text so I cannot use this method of confirming actions. I need an alternative, preferably email. 

I received this notice at the correct email so the change apparently went through.

We can help you further with what needs to be done here, user_os8kvc. We can email you the authentication code and make the change you are requesting. If you do not have a cell phone number listed with your Xfinity ID, the agent should always ask to email you the code. My thought is maybe they were in a routine with asking to text it to you instead. I apologize you went through that and will happily help you here.
