When logged in with the Primary UserID you may be able to remove the ad panel along the right-hand side of Xfinity Connect webmail. Sign in to the "Manage your account preferences" page at https://www.xfinity.com/privacy/opt-out#Preference-opt-out (if the page is working), scroll down to "Allow banner ads in your inbox", and move the slider to "Off". You may have to sign out and back in again for the change to take effect.

Hello @user_6vo4rk, thank you for taking the time to reach out on social media.

To turn off pop-up ads in Xfinity Email, follow these steps:

Visit the Privacy Center.
Scroll down to **Account-based choices** and click **Choose your preferences**.
Scroll down to **Manage Digital Advertising** in the **Manage Preferences** section.
Click the toggle next to **Opt in/out of Email Banner Advertising**. Note that text ads are not included in the opt-out process and will remain in Xfinity Email. This process specifically applies to Xfinity Email and does not remove ads from other Xfinity pages.

Hey there, @user_8k4z9n. I am not quite sure what you're referring to when you mention pop up ads on your email. Are you getting emails about ads in your inbox? Can you describe what is happening in a bit more detail?
