Not 'Manager' but I am a member on my account, can't change it.

I have no permissions to do anything on my account since my user role is member.
I can't change it to manager.

I have internet essentials, is that why I am considered a member?
I'm just trying to access membership benefits but I'm not eligible to redeem benefits since I'm a member.

So I noticed I have two account numbers, my old address is inactive.

Do I just unlink my old address?
I dunno how this happened.

@user_yyhvxl, It is likely the old address, what does it show when you select each of them?

both account show when I go into Xfinity & identity on computer.

I can't click on either one but I can unlink the inactive account, I dunno if it will go through since my account is restricted.

I can't get into the old account at all so I can't transfer admin rights.
