| Hello Glenners!
Please see the updated information from Comcast below. A courtesy phone has been installed at Fireside Lodge (w/ Comcast instructions) for members to call Comcast.
Members who signed up on June 22 but were not seen:
“We have held the names of those that came down last week but were unable to be seen. They will be the priority appointments and we will verify with the resident when they come down.
We will locate them on the list and they will be seen first.”
Members who received equipment on June 22 but can’t connect:
- Call the bulk COE at 1 855 307 4896
- Put in zip code of the glen 98244
- State New Customer
- It will ask if you are activating new equipment, state no you are getting new service, (This is the work around otherwise it will want to send you a message) and with no cell reception, there is no way to receive the texts.
- Once you reach an agent you can state “I’m Part of the the glen at maple falls, address is 7159 Mount Baker Highway, Deming WA 98244”
- The resident provides their Division and Lot such as I’m in Division 8 lot 141 (or if they have their account number provided when they picked up their equipment – that is the fastest)
- The resident then lets the agent know, (I HAVE HOOKED UP MY MODEM NOW I NEED TO SET MY USER NAME AND PASSWORD) The resident should be prepared to write this down, they can select their own user name/password)
When they return to their unit they can now access the user name and password (including searching for it on their phone)
