Two accounts of three can not login

I am writing in regards to family members who I do not recall ever changed their Xfinity passwords and they are not able to login in any way right now.   This account I am typing from IS associated with the account (the overall bill ... there is one primary "email" and two secondary ... this is one of the secondary, where i have changed my pw over the years)

The only thing i am seeing on the site is to give the last 4 digits of a SSN number (which xfinity doesn't have for them and they wouldn't give that to Xfinity) and a phone number.  The alternate way is to call up Comcast ... I am writing to see if there is a way where they'd not even have to call up.   Right now I dont have "detailed" info (like xfinity "account number" or whatever on the bill and nor would i post that publically of  course) .... If its just sending a DM to an Xfinity rep here ... and saying the two "...@Comcast.net" email accounts including the overall primary account being one of them and say verifying the address the bill goes to or something ... I CAN do that.  I just want to see if i can make it easier for these family members.  

IF they do have to physically call up ... what info is needed? ... do they need details on the bill or is it say automated and it just reads a code you have to type in?  IF they have to call I'd like to give the info on what to expect in advanced.

I will (or can if that is all it takes) can provide an alt email account for each of the two email accounts in question because i am 99% sure they never setup a "if i cant login, email this alt email" ... email.   

thank you for your time.

Hello @Mmmradar, and thank you for reaching out with your account concern. This is the information you will want to provide your family members. They need to call our Customer Security Assurance team at 1 (888) 565-4329 which would be the team to help with login issues. The infromation they would need is account address, name on account, and account number which can be found at the top of any billing statement. That is what the CSA team will need from them to get account access. Hope this information helps!

@XfinityEricB​ thank you for the info.   I am going to ask a question without running it by them first ... even though I dont have the account number, I am sure i could ask them for a bill to get it ... I wondered if (direct message, NOT in a public forum of course) this could be done over the website here.   I know other than the bill # i can verify (the other info listed).   I would just have to ask them for a bill to get that bill number and if it saves them a call (just say it can be done this way) i am sure they'd prefer it over calling support. 

Again thank you for your time,

Mike

I completely understand the concerns, @Mmmradar! I know working via our Forums makes it super simple, but with the account security, and the details required with the Xfinity ID to login to the accounts, it would require to call into our system to receive help from our Customer Security Assurance team. Our team will be able to get everything squared away, and access back to their accounts.

1. Tried normal logon:

Reset your Xfinity password

As part of our commitment to you, Comcast routinely reviews and monitors account security. Please update your password to help protect you and your account.

2. Please work with your primary account holder to reset your password.

We are unable to change your password because there is not an eligible verified mobile number or email on file; you will need the Primary account holder to make the change for you. Once you've reset, please add a mobile number or email address to your profile so we can better assist you with future password resets and troubleshooting.
If you are still unable to reset your password, please call us at 1-800-XFINITY.



I could not logon to primary account, either.  When I called CSA, the message said wait time over 20 minutes.  After 5 minutes of waiting, the call was disconnected.
