I just hang up and call again. You'll eventually get someone who doesn't care and will just disconnect you.

I once had a Comcast agent claim that he needed my father's death certificate to cancel my service! (No it was not under his name, it was always under my name.)

Wtf, really? That is simply unconscionable. Are these even people on the end of the line? What kind of worthless piece of shit asks someone for their father's death certificate to cancel a cable service?

That's the instant that you tell them to escalate to their supervisor.
