I'm on my 3rd Xfinity "new user" contract here. Sign up ONLINE under someone else's name/email in your household then cancel your service. Give yourself 2-3 days between canceling and new service starting. Been doing that for 30+ years with every cable company I have had (Cablevision, Comcrap, Fios, DirecTV) and have always been a "new subscriber" getting new subscriber promos. Never have had to speak to a person other than to cancel, although now you can do it on chat. You can also cancel and switch to another provider for internet only. There should be at least one other around.
With internet only (no TV) you don't have as much direct bargaining power. If you can get 2yr contracts, it's much easier to rinse and repeat. Not sure you can do that with internet only.
