Hmm ...

Does anyone know if they need to roll a truck if I drop limited basic and just keep the HSI? I haven't had their vile cable television service TV in years (there is nothing run to the TV at all) but always kept the basic service as well, that's what I've always had. If it'll save me any money at all, I think its time to drop legacy cable TV service.

If they're going to charge me like $30 to have someone roll out and probably break my HSI connection while they're at it; I'll just pass.

I think you can just drop off your cable box(es) at a comcast office.

They need to roll a truck, yes. A "no-video" trap has to be placed on your line blocking out the analog tiers. And, for a non-addressable change of service fee (usually charged on the downgrade)... the average I've seen is $15.00

But, if you pull the usual rouge, if/when they charge that, tell them you'd kill all of it and they'll usually waive it. However, just remember that when you downgrade your video, the price of your HSI will also go up, usually about the same price of having limited basic (about $10.00)

My opinion is, if you're not watching the TV at all, and you'd save even about $4 a month, that's still $48 a year savings.

basic costs about the same as HSI only.
