Need to cancel my internet service without a phone call

I've been trying to cancel my Xfinity Internet for months. The website only offers a phone call, a callback, or a store visit, and the Xfinity Assistant live chat fails every time with "Unable to start a live chat session." I do not want to do this by phone. Can an Xfinity employee invite me to a direct message so I can cancel in writing? I want the service disconnected as soon as possible and I am not interested in retention offers. I also have a rented gateway to return and would like the return instructions.
