Took me about 5 minutes and no hassle to cancel Comcast. I simply took the equipment into the local Comcast office and turned it in, no dealing with phone representatives or anything. When asked why, I simply refused to answer and that was that.
When I attempted to do this a couple of years ago, the line to return equipment went out the door and around the corner. We decided to just drop our equipment in their return box (and call later), which turned out to be impossible because the box was outdoors and overflowing.
