if your service is like my friend's comcast triple play bundle [village of silver lake] your cable service is still connected and live when on vacation mode - BUT - it only offers the basic service plan. so if/when you have short, surprise visits to tv after your cable goes 'on vacation' and IF you can abide having only basic channels, you can disconnect the digital box and connect the cable directly to the television for service! no cost for reversing and restarting the 'vacation' mode and no need to call comcast during the short trip.
your 'on vacation' phone is also available for use to make outgoing calls - BUT - only in the local calling area - no long distance available!

We only have Cable in the Villages. What you stated here is very informative, I did not think about just the basic cable part of our service when planning on our return trip, very interesting to say the least. Thank you for this information, I will keep it in memory (hopefully) if and when this happens to us again.
