You can't stop service for just a couple of weeks. It's not an option.
OP asked is it was as easy as Comcast claims, didn’t ask the minimum or maximum of hold. Just answered the question, YES it’s easy to do. Who would stop service for couple of weeks?

Since 2009 have put Comcast on vaca hold, (north) or seasonal hold, (TV)

North at both homes, minimum is 30 days max is 6 months. In TV minimum has always been 90 days, and the maximum I have used is 9 months, with no problems. I go online, and remove whichever hold on either home, while driving, by the time I arrive it up and running.
