unlinking a linked account does not work

I have a linked account to an account that is no longer active. Every time I try to unlink it says "Something went wrong please try again later".

This is never resolved, and I cannot get the Xfinity assistant to understand my question.

There is no path to call a human being and after an internet search I found this forum.

PLEASE help me on this!

Hi there, @user_b97s5k I do apologize for the trouble you are having trying to unlink your account. If unlinking a linked Xfinity account isn't working, ensure you're not currently signed in to the account you're trying to unlink. You also need to disable automatic payments and remove any pending scheduled payments before unlinking.-Richard

This is an inactive account (I suspect it has been inactive for more than 1 year).  There is no auto pay or scheduled payments.

At this point I would need the assistance of someone who has access to Xfinity computer systems to perform the unlink

Thank you for your reply back, @user_b97s5k you are in the right place for assistance, We do not have access to your account to perform that unlinking. Are you logging into Xfinity.com? Are these the same steps you are performing?-Richard

 

  1. Click the Account icon and then select Account and Identity
  2. Click Xfinity ID and Security.
  3. Scroll to the Your Accounts section and click Manage and link accounts.
