I hate to pay added cash, without exploring others.
Comcast often offers special deals to entice NEW customers. If you have Comcast, sometimes there is a financial advantage to putting Comcast "to sleep" when you leave, and thereby not paying reinstall fees. Sometimes, instead of putting our Comcast "to sleep", we cancel it. Then when we return we qualify for the special deals.
