Default Comcast hook-up

I had decided to get Comcast Tripple Play for $114 a month in the home we are closing on Dec 11.

I called Comcast to get everything set up and to get our new phone number. They say they cannot open a new account for our new address until the owners close their account. Therefore, I can't get a phone # until after we close on the house and then I have to make an appointment for installation. That appointment will be scheduled then for an available date in the future.

It seems like I could be without cable, phone and internet for a week or more after the closing. Also, we will have no land line phone number. If this is the way it works, I will pick up my Directv portable dish and skip Comcast.
