we currently put our nj comcast account all the way down to limited basic cable when we leave for the villages. then we activate our less comprehensive fl comcast account for the period of time we are snowbirding. when we fly north we put the fl comcast on vacation/seasonal since we don't return again until the following winter season.
all of that saves us some $$ - but it does limit viewing for hubs when snowbirding. just wondering if it is worth it to forego the savings and increase his snowbirding viewing pleasure if an account transfer can be done.

I did that for a couple of years with Comcast. Their policies and the fact that "up north" seemed to be an altogether different company than Florida Comcast drove me nuts. Then I found that with DirecTV, you can just call and turn it on or off on one days' notice, with no 'maximum periods' like Comcast. Another reason to like DirecTV.
