Transferring account ownership

I'm reaching out to see if anyone else has had issues with transferring account ownership. I've called up Xfinity twice to transfer the internet account ownership to the person currently residing in the residence. I had moved out of state and unfortunately I'm no longer in contact with my former roommates. I've attempted to do the right thing and just transfer the internet service ownership to one of my former roommates to leave on good terms, but I have not ever received confirmation that the account transfer was finalized. I'm still getting billed for internet service I don't use, and it's been over a month since I've moved out of state. Should I just cancel the service then??
