Seasonal Hold

I am trying to put my internet on seasonal hold from 4/1/22 - 10/1/22, and received a message 'Your account is not eligible to schedule a suspend during this seasonal program since there are not enough days left in the program period to allow for a minimum length seasonal plan.'  Also, I had a question on the 2022 rate plans.  I was previously told by Xfinity support that it would be $8 to put internet on seasonal hold, but the 2022 rate plans on your website (comcastseasonal.com) show xfinity internet service (email only) - $8/month and Seasonal xfinity internet access - $29.95/month.  I would like to understand the seasonal hold program/max#days/cost, etc. so that I can make an informed choice. Thank you

Concern moved here to the Customer Service help section for greater exposure to actual Comcast corporate employees (The Digital Care Team) for assistance.

Hello, @user_3fcb2d. I hope you're having an amazing day so far. I'd like to thank you for taking the time to reach out to us via Forums to get your questions answered.

 

The Seasonal Convenience Plan is available if you will be away from your home for 90 to 270 days. With that being said, the months from 4/1/22 - 10/1/22 should qualify. You may sign up if you haven't enrolled in this calendar year. Were you on a seasonal plan at one point this year? 

The Seasonal Internet Access plan offers 3 Mbps download and 2 Mbps upload speeds. While on the standard Seasonal Convenience Plan, you'll only have access to existing email accounts and the ability to create more Xfinity IDs.

I would be more than happy to investigate this further to identify the reason why you're unable to enroll your account on a seasonal hold. 

 

In order to get started, can you please send me a private message to Xfinity Support with your full name and full address by clicking the chat icon in the top right?

It make no sense to pay for no service on a per month basis ? just to have the pleasure of keeping the router and box at my home ..add up to $40.00/ month .

Hello! I have placed my services on seasonal pause in April and would like to reactivate them for 10 days in August and then re-put then on seasonal pause till November. Is that possible ? And is there a fee associated with that ? Thanks

Hello and thanks for taking the time to reach out, @user_2acd3e. We could remove your seasonal suspend, but we would not be able to start another seasonal plan after 10 days. Also, if you turn your serves back on, and it has not been a full 90 days, you will be charged full price for the services that are in the seasonal plan. Please let me know if you have any questions, or if you would like to proceed with removing it out of the Seasonal Convenience plan.

Hello @user_4445e2, thanks for taking the time to reach out to us on our Forums page. We appreciate you being a customer with us and these are great questions about our Seasonal Hold plan. We can definitely assist you with getting these answered.

 

So customers have the option to suspend their Xfinity Internet or place it into a Seasonal Internet Access plan. While on the standard Seasonal Convenience Plan, customers will only have access to existing email accounts and the ability to create more Xfinity IDs. For an additional monthly fee, customers can upgrade to the Seasonal Internet Access plan, which offers 3 Mbps download and 2 Mbps upload speeds in their homes during the plan. 

 

I hope this helps! Let us know if you have any further questions we can answer for you, we're here to help!

I would like to put our service on hold, but we are not sure if we will be gone for the full 90 days.  If we aren't, is it a problem to have our service turned back on?  Also, if it is before the 90 day minimum will they just bill us what we would have paid had we not used seasonal hold?  Will there be a penalty fee for not having it off for the 90 day minimum?  Thank you for your time.
