Access Not Authorized – Xfinity ID not recognized as an Xfinity user

Hello, I am the primary account holder and I currently have active Xfinity Internet and Xfinity Mobile service with 3 mobile lines.

When I sign in to my Xfinity account, I receive this message:

“Access not Authorized. You signed in successfully, but you must be an Xfinity user to enjoy this service.”

I am definitely an active Xfinity customer. I have already tried signing out and back in, using Safari, using the Xfinity app, reinstalling the app, clearing browser data, and trying different devices/browsers. I also contacted Xfinity customer service by phone, but they were unable to resolve the issue.

Please check the backend association of my Xfinity ID with my active Internet account and verify that my Xfinity ID is correctly listed as the Primary User/Account Holder. Please also check for any linked-account or profile association issue.

I need access to my account and I do not want to cancel my existing Internet or Xfinity Mobile services.

Yes, I’m still having the same issue. I’ve tried signing in again and again, but I keep getting the same message and I still can’t access my account. I’ve already tried the troubleshooting steps, but nothing has worked so far. Could you please help me figure out what’s causing this issue?

Thanks for clarifying. If you have an active account, it most likely means you're not signing in with the right Xfinity credentials. I recommend signing in and if you see two different addresses, select the correct address as your ID can be linked to a closed account.

 

 If that doesn't work, I recommend reaching out to our customer security assurance team at 1-888-565-4329. They would be able to help correct your Xfinity ID to make sure it matches the correct account
