Xfinity can help you get or reset your password in two ways:
- A verified personal (non-Xfinity) email address, which is not your Xfinity email address
- The mobile phone number on your Xfinity account.
If you don’t have at least one of these saved, you may get a pop-up message when you sign in with your Xfinity ID.
You may also see this message if:
- Your mobile phone number hasn't been verified in the past six months, or
- Your personal (non-Xfinity) email address hasn't been verified in the past year.
Enter password recovery information
Choose one of the methods below:
Personal (non-Xfinity) email
- Choose Add an email address.
- When you enter your personal (non-Xfinity) email address, you’ll get an email with a code to verify it in case you need to reset your password.
- Enter the code into the window that pops up within 72 hours, or you’ll need to enter your email again to get a new code.
You can’t use your Xfinity email address to reset or change your password. You must use a personal (non-Xfinity) email address (e.g., gmail.com, yahoo.com, hotmail.com, etc.). If you don’t have one, use the mobile phone number method below.
Enter a mobile phone number
When you enter your mobile phone number, you’ll get a text message with a verification code.
Enter the code into the pop up within 15 minutes, or you’ll need to enter your mobile phone number again to get a new code.
