Asked for delayed shipment, got two shipments immediately

I recently signed up for Xfinity internet service for my vacation home which is 3 hours away. I won't be there for another month. There used to be an option to delay shipment of equipment, but there wasn't one when I signed up. I immediately called support and they said they would cancel the order and send out the new order in a month. Instead, I got two orders delivered within two days. I don't plan to be there to activate this service until mid-October, so I want to make sure I'm not billed for this service until then.
