Still no (I have 12 posts already if that was where you were going with that)
Actually one thought your reply with 'Unknown User' address triggered however - why do I have no screen name? (i.e. not applicable) I can't even see where that would be either?
Is that related to why PM's aren't enabled?
If my Screen name were to be enabled it should be decosse - same as my Xfinity Username
I am having the same issue with not being able to send a Private Message when I've been asked to by a Comcast employee (comcastmorgan & comcastche). I don't have the "Send Message" option in the upper right conrer between the "bell" and the circle profile picture. I have posted a public post, with numerous responses. I've checked my settings and I don't have Private Messages under the preferences. I'm at a loss. I'm trying to get an issue resolved.

@ComcastCSAEmail said to send PM for frequently required password resets, but I cannot send PM''s - no notification icon. Can you please fix this for me? I'm sick of it.
You needed to make at least one public post before sending a private message. And you shouldn’t send one unless an Official Employee specifically asks you to. Since this your first post that hasn’t happened yet
I'd like to make a suggestion. This forum's policy about not sending unsolicited private messages is understandable once explained, but definitely differs from policies on numerous other fora I've visited. Yes, it is spelled out in the forum guidelines. Perhaps we would alleviate a lot of confusion if the message composition screen included a reminder of this policy with a link to the relevant portion of the guidelines.
@requaIt's a nice suggestion, but I can guarantee you that after the third time of it showing up in the composition window customers would complain most heartedly and heatedly. FWIW, customers are supposed to read the Guidelines and Acceptable Use Policy before posting - something that should be done when first joining and posting in any forum across the internet.

Thank you. It was actually an open request by an official employee in an older thread - PM to fix a specific problem.
