Switching from DirectTV to Comcast

I'm moving into a new place and the previous owner had DirectTV. Not knowing that, I chose to self install Comcast. Am I going to have to call a tech or is there a way for me to switch it where it comes into the house?

I'm sorry, but under no fricking circumstances should you switch to Comcast. They are a cesspool of a company, maybe the single worst organization in the history of the United States. If you've already switched, please proceed to shove a stick of margarine up your arse and prepare yourself for the epic arse-ramming you are about to receive.
They've made this year for me an absolute living hell. To start off, they wouldn't allow me to cancel my grandmother's Comcast subscription because she wasn't there to cancel in person, and she just died. Never raised more hell in my life, asking if I should summon the local necromancer to bring her back to cancel her subscription. Had to get my mom to come in and lie and say it was her.
Then I move to Atlanta, and low and behold they aren't there to install my internet on time. I ask them to come install it on Saturday, they say they will, and they don't come again. Takes until fricking Monday after work before the moron finally shows up.
Few weeks back I moved from Atlanta, and after dealing with their bullshite yet again for over 3 fricking hours on the phone, I have to go to 3 different Comcast locations in Atlanta to drop the damn thing off and cancel it. Got a bill last month which bills me for the month of September. Needless to say, I'm pissed. The morons back in Atlanta apparently thought I wanted to temporarily store it there (despite the fact that I had the receipt that said otherwise), and I need to fly all the way back to Atlanta to pick it up and resubmit the cancellation in person. After another 2 hours on the phone, I finally raised enough hell to get it canceled.
I don't care if Directv is 20 dollars a month more than Comcast, don't go with Comcast. Directv is a quality company that doesn't treat you like a fricking leper. It's not worth the absolute living hell the Comcast people will put you through. They are either the biggest bunch of dumb fricks in the world that make McDonald's employees look like Apple programers or they are a bunch of narcissists who get off on making your life an absolute living hell. frick Comcast since I don't know anyone who hasn't had an absolute living hell dealing with those assholes.

Comcast customer service is very bad. They also charged my brother and I for an extra month of cable and Internet even after we canceled.. We couldn't even get it taken off our bill and tried to explain that it was wrongly charged, they didn't care.

Why would you do this?
If its for the internet, you can get comcast internet stand alone for 25 a month.
