It works well if you are a true snowbird and are in TV for one extended period and away for one extended period as you are allowed just one "hold" per year and it is for a minimum of three months.

If TV is more of a "holiday home" for you and you visit several times a year you can still only put the service on hold once.

Turning the hold on and off is very easy - just a phone call to an automated service. You have to provide departure and arrival dates, but you can change these. We have arrived without remembering to activate the service but a phone call had it up and running within the hour.

Our experience of cancelling the service then coming back on the cheap, introductory deal has not been the same as an earlier poster's. Xfinity keep your account details and, in our experience, won't treat you as a new customer until you have been away from them for two years.
