How do I switch to residential service?

Many years ago I got Comcast Business because it was a superior solution... but now I find that the residential service is 3x the speed for 1/2 the price.  I have 50 Mbit down and 12 up on business and I pay ~$150/month!

 

My question is, how can I switch from business to residential?  Do the two share the same cable?

If I sign up with residential, they will send me a modem.  Should I at that point unplug the cable from the business modem and plug it into the residential one? And then call to terminate the business contract?  Or how is it done?

I have the same issue as a number of other people on this forum.   I have a very small business (3 employees) and have Comcast Business service.   I am paying over $150 for a business 150mbps plan and am only getting a download speed of 35 mbps.   I have Comcast residential service at my home and pay half the price for 10 x the speed, and that is with a family of 6 with cable, cell phones, etc. .   I am interested in switching from a business plan to a residential plan for better speeds and better pricing.   Can you please assist with this issue?

How do you want me to send you a private message?  Do you want to provide your email address so I can email you?   I am not going to put my personal info and account # on this reply that posts to a public message board.
