can't link new account

I recently moved to a new house and ordered service for my new address.  When I log in to Xfinity My Account, I see the account number for an old address I lived at 2 years ago.  I have tried to link to my new account, providing my phone number and address, and I get an error message.  I've also tried to do the "add user" workaround, and I get the message "you can not add users to this account".  I've read the troubleshooting articles and the linked account articles and didn't find anything that worked.

 

I do have the new account number, and I have received a paper bill and was able to pay it using the "pay without signing in" option.  That is not an acceptable long term solution, though.

Does https://forums.xfinity.com/t5/Sign-In-and-Account-Management/Top-Identity-Troubleshooting-Steps-START-HERE-BEFORE-POSTING/m-p/3366881#M34006 help? When you move, Comcast may or may not transfer the UserIDs/email addresses from the old account to the new one. This article is intended to allow you to fix that.

Yes I read that page, tried all the suggestions, and none of them worked. 

I did the ID lookup and I only have one ID.  I tried the invite workaround and got "you can't add users to this account".  Trying to link the account using address & phone number gives me an error message.

I am having the same problem.  I need to link two accounts and have tried many times with no success.  It's very frustrating!  Please help!
