Comcast.net email is going away!

... Comcast.net email is going to go away ... Is this a true statement from the employee???

Maybe. https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/account-email-information says:

... Beginning June 3, 2024, customers will not be able to create new Xfinity Email (comcast.net) accounts.

If you have an existing Xfinity Email account, you can continue to access and use your existing Xfinity Email account ...

No idea how long it will be between "no new email addresses" and "no email addresses".

Since new Comcast internet customers now cannot have a Comcast email account, and existing customers can no longer create new secondary accounts, it means the total number of people using the email will keep dwindling due to normal attrition.  Since the given reason for the new policy is "too few customers are using it"-------it does not bode well for the long run.

Just sayin  🤨

...  Where is the notification from XFinity that this is going to happen?

They never gave us one. They just posted the "account-email-information" article and pulled the plug. Unusually low, even for Comcast. Usually when they take something away they give us advance notice. Not this time. And IMHO this was a MAJOR change.

Thanks for reaching out the change doesn't affect current e-mail accounts it only affects the ability for customers to create new Xfinity e-mail accounts, For more information please go to https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/account-email-information

Suggestion------------Pin a post about this subject with links to the top of the email forum.  Right now there is nothing up there about it, and we will keep getting questions like this since there was no

advance notice about it.  At least with the pinned post readers will have a chance to see it before posting.
