I messed up and am beside myself!

I have kept 3 Xfinity email accounts since ending other services with Xfinity and they are very important to me. I did something over the weekend to 1) lose my primary account altogether, 2) switch one secondary account to primary, and 3) lose the my other secondary account. Have searched and searched online for help from Xfinity, have called the Xfinity # and tried chat but I keep running into a wall. Any ideas as to how I can get help? Thanks!

Hey @user_j8ngc9, Thank you for visiting our official Xfinity Forums Community support page. We greatly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience regarding the Xfinity Email service. I would be more than happy to offer my assistance looking into this further for you.

 

With the Xfinity IDs, I would recommend visiting our 'View your Xfinity Email account status' support page where you can quickly and easily sign in to view the status of your Xfinity ID/Emails and see if they are still active. You can also learn about our Xfinity Email Activity page to see how to keep your Xfinity IDs active. 

 

If you happen to forgot your Xfinity IDs, you can visit our 'Find or change your Xfinity ID' support page which will guide you through the primary account and Xfinity ID Look Up Tool

 

Please give these a try and let us know if you were able to view the accounts.

Thank you SO much for reaching out. I am so nervous about this loss. I visited 'Find or change your Xfinity ID' and then customer.xfinity.com/settings/xid/uidemail -- but the only email accounts listed are the formerly-secondary-now-primary account and the backup personal email address (a gmail address). No sign of the other 2 accounts. I have all the Xfinity IDs and passwords, if that's any help.

I appreciate you taking a look @user_j8ngc9. With not being able to locate the Xfinity IDs using the methods above, we can try and see if we can locate them and the status. 

 

Please send a direct message by clicking the chat icon in the upper right corner of the page, clicking on the pen and paper icon, and then entering “Xfinity Support” in the “To” section. Please include your full first/last name, complete service address (Including the city, state, and zip code), and ALL the Xfinity IDs that are in question which may assist us if the accounts are linked in any way, and I'll be happy to help.

One more thing. I'm still receiving emails to my "lost" secondary account on my iPad (it's the address used by my New York Times subscription), though that email address no longer shows up at Xfinity.  Not receiving emails sent to my original (now deleted) primary account that I've been using for probably over 27 years.
