have to sign in twice?

For a little over a month now I have to enter my password twice to sign in. I called and they said to clear cache/ restart/  all that good stuff. I already have and it still the same. Anyone else have this happening? So weird

Hello and thanks for taking the time to reach out, @paolini. I am sorry you are having issues. It has been a couple of days. Are you still having issues or were you able to get this resolved? Also, is this specific to your Xfinity Mobile?

@XfinityAaron​ It's actually not on mobile device. That was the only option I was given. Had to pick one to post comment. Yes, still having same issue. Have to enter password twice.

@paolini Thank you for confirming that as well. I would be more than happy to help get to the bottom of these ongoing login issues once and for all! It is the very least that we can do for a valued member of our Xfinity family! Are you experiencing this same issue with having to enter your password twice on all devices, including when trying to login via a mobile device or personal computer?

I only sign in on my home pc. So I have no idea about other devices. I don't have or use the app.

Thank you for letting us know. Can you please reset your password, log out, then log back in? Did that clear up to the double log in concerns?

I have the same problem. When logging in on my computer, I have to enter my user name, password, and Xfinity code TWICE. The code I use the second time is different because when I am prompted to log in for the 2nd time, it sends another (different) code to my phone.

@XfinityAngie​ Yes. Actually, it's worse now. Sent to 2 step verification page repeatedly once the help started. Couldn't get by it anymore. Now I have to sign in 3 times. Twice with password and once with code. Listen, If other people are having this issue, than obviously it's nothing I'm doing or not doing. Not a browser I'm using. Not a matter of clearing my history. Not a matter or changing my password.   It's a change within xfinity. I'm not sure why that can't be figured out. Whomever designs/ monitors this website within your company will have the answer to this conundrum. Otherwise, I am fully exhausted with this and feel If we continue, I will eventually not be able to sign in at all. As it's just getting worse not better.

@XfinityAngie​  Could someone at least explain to me how to turn 2 step verification off?  I mean besides deleting my phone numbers from this website? I don't want to do that as I want notifications.

@paolini Removing your email address or mobile phone number will automatically turn off Two-Step Verification. You can change your email address or mobile phone number while keeping Two-Step Verification on but until verification of the new email or phone number is complete, the previous email or phone number will remain in use.

Same here for desktop browser login. I have to login twice. Also the customer.xfinity.com is slow. Please fix and optimize. It's unbelievable that an internet provider company's website is so sluggish.

Just a quick question for those of you having the sign in issues, when you sign in the first time are you checking the “Keep Me Signed In” box on the page that asks you for your password?  Also, make sure that your browser isn’t set to automatically clear cookies or cached web data.  Those can each contribute to the issue you are having.  I am not saying it is guaranteed, but some things you can do on your end that don’t require all the resetting of credentials or dropping 2FA.

@sraym5​ I've personally tried it both ways. No change.   So, if not having cookies/cached cleared automatically might help, why are xfinity agents TELLING me to clear cookies/cached because that will help?? I gotta say..at this point? Sorry I even brought it up. It is never going to change. It is my life now. It will never ever be resolved. Not ever. I'm calling it right now.

@sraym5​  No help. I have clicked the "keep me signed in" and not and it is still an issue.

I'm sorry this is such a frustrating issue for you all! @user_253935, you mentioned that this doesn't happen on your Android device; are you by chance using a mail client like Outlook or the built-in app on that one?

Hi, @user_a8c94e. I see you are having the same issue on your end. Please let me know any troubleshooting steps you've taken so far. I'll be glad to help. If needed, you can disable Two Factor Verification. This was covered in great detail here https://forums.xfinity.com/conversations/email/turn-off-two-factor-authentication/602daf9fc5375f08cd11f91e let me know if that helps.

Hello @user_d1e576. It has been a couple days since you reached out. Are you still haing issues or where you able to get this fixed?

Just another so-called community board that comcast hopes you like but which they very probably never pay any attention to. These sign in issues get tossed aside as bothesome by the same comcast employees who tell you how they are officially from xfinity care, product, leadership teams. It's smoke and mirrors valued customers. I've had this same issue and also, email issues for years that are never resolved and I have even received canned comcast emails asking me to rate the customer service I received. Tonight the tv cable connectivity is the problem du jour. It comes and then freezes up about every 30 seconds. Also, just received a promotional email from comcast asking me to try their phone service plan. Gee what should I do? Pathetic.

Both times I have to enter my email and then password.

I have the same problem. Just tried calling and wasted 15 minutes getting the run around. This is not safe. Many password scrapers do the same thing - harvesting your credentials during the 'extra' time. So I have been hesitant. This needs to be fixed. Someone with tech skills needs to set up a test user so they can see what we are seeing. Thanks in advance. 

Also: it only occurs on my main login, where I use Chrome to access web email. It does not make me login twice for a separate comcast email account, although I use Firefox for that one (in case that matters)

@user_7cc4ea​  15 minutes? I spent over an hour 2 times getting the run around.  That's my same concern, that it feels unsafe/ like phishing. I have Microsoft edge.

2. Hit the compose button to the right of "conversations"

3. In the 'To' line, type "Xfinity Support" there. A drop-down list appears. Select "Xfinity Support" from that list (an "Xfinity Support" graphic replaces the "To:" line)

4. Type your message in the text area near the bottom of the window

5. Press Enter to send it. An official employee, such as myself or whoever is first available, will respond. Thanks!

@user_f762fe​ Same here ever since the improvement within the past couple weeks.  Went to log on and came to a page I'd never seen before.  Figured out how to log on, then went to check emaail only to have to log on again...rather annoying.  Followed instructions to get xfinity support and got no response after 5 min...not even an indication that someone would respond.  Probably a dead end.

Having the same problem. Also tried everything described in the forum. Clear cache, then don't clear cache. Xfinity has no answers to the problem, but they will put in endless effort to sell you more of their products that most likely are also inferior.
