Xfinity account does not have a primary user

I am trying to manage the billing for my Xfinity account, but it appears as if there is no primary user for the account. I am able to sign in using my email address on the Xfinity website, but when I select Billing & Pay -> View Bill & Transaction History, the page states that I do not have permission, as I am only a "Member". When I select Manage Plan -> View & Manage Current Services, it logs a request error to the browser console and loads indefinitely, although previously it stated there was an issue with my account and I would need to contact support. When I select the account menu -> Account and Identity, only a single account is shown for my address, which I expect. From there, when I select Xfinity ID and Security, there is also only one account shown. The phone number I used to start service at my address is the same phone number associated with my user account, although I have previously changed the email address. However, I was encountering the same issue prior to changing the email address. I have tried searching for additional accounts at https://idm.xfinity.com/myaccount/lookup, but I always end up signed back in as the same user. I am encountering the same issues using the Xfinity mobile app.

@jdist Our team is here to help.  I would like to start with checking which username is currently attached. I understand you changed it recently. If you could click on this link xfinity.com/username as it will show you the primary username for your account. From there you can verify if it changed over.  You can use http://www.xfinity.com/password to reset the password.

Thank you for the quick reply. It appears the link you provided simply directs me to the page I linked in my original message (https://idm.xfinity.com/myaccount/lookup). As mentioned, I have attempted to run through that page using both my email and my phone number, and the only account I can find is the one that has the Member role.
