    To play devils advocate, my guess might be that consumers will have to schedule to return hardware or something. But honestly, it’s just so they can bully people when they try to cancel.

        Shit, Comcast has a pretty decent change of charging you for the hardware even if you do return it.

        The ‘hardware’ is also $30 crap you can buy off eBay or wholesalers usually. Some of the modern ones even overheat because they are so poorly constructed, lol. I love the little “Designed with ❤️ in Philadelphia. Made in China” tagline on the label with the implied “Overheats in any climate above 40F indoors” just afterwards, lol. Comcast quality.

      Since they don’t let you to keep the hardware in the case they unsuccessfully bully you to keep the subscription, this is a not a problem, the hardware need to go back in both cases.
