Change Community Forum ID/Name

I don't want my email address to be my community forum ID. I don't recall ever being given the option of choosing an ID for the forum. Can you help me change it?

Thanks

I had a username of AGM1204 (which is what I want to continue using) but when I tried to login to user the forum today it would only bring me to the "Create a Username" page not a login page and when I entered AGM1204 it told me, of course, that that username was already in use.  Yes, duh!  It's me!!!  So, the only way to get around that and get into the forums was to create another user name (addimoore) which I am using currently but do NOT want to use.  Would you be so kind as to change my username back to AGM1204?  Thank you!!!


 

@AGM1204,

 

Welcome back to the Xfinity Forum. We sincerely apologize for the issue you are experiencing with your previous username @1204AGM . After searching the username it does appear that the username is still active and is available for you to access with the correct email and associated password. I can also tell you that the email you used for this new username is not the same that you used for that other username. 

 

If you do not remember these credentials for the AGM1204 username, feel free to private message me with your full name, address and phone number to discuss/update this information. 

 

Please let me know if you need anything else or have any other questions.

Seems there is no self-serve way to do this.  I notice in the archives, changing my forum user name is possible....

There are several threads where other customers had the same question. 

See https://forums.xfinity.com/t5/Getting-Started/Community-Forum-Username-Change/m-p/3234189

You have to get the attention of an appropriate Xfinity agent who can assist.  Hopefully, one will see your post.

@Perrier1 

 

The username Perrier was already in use by another user, so I changed your username to Perrier1. If this does not work for you or you would like another username, please let us know here.
