Two issues with @Xfinity and @XfinitySupport in the past few months, and no way to get help. Unless it's the help they and their AI assume you might want. Hours of frustration.

I am locked out of my @ZohoOne business account and @ZohoCares stopped responding to desperate emails 16 hours ago. Please, @Zoho, call me to resolve this. I’m in the bizarre loop of needing to sign in to @ZohoOneAuth to authorize my sign in to @ZohoOneAuth.

I should add that nothing has changed other than I got a new iPhone. I know my login and password. I have access to my email and my phone number. Security is not just about keeping people out—it fails when it blocks legitimate users.

Zoho relented and gave me access to my account. What a waste of time and energy that was.
