How to Cancel Breezeline Internet in 2026
Breezeline (formerly Atlantic Broadband, now owned by Cogeco) serves parts of New England, the Mid-Atlantic, and the Southeast. Cancellation is phone-only โ no online option. Here's what to expect.
How to Cancel Breezeline
By Phone (Required)
- Call 1-888-536-9600
- Verify your identity (name, address, account number)
- Request cancellation of your services
- Decline retention offers (expect 1-2 rounds)
- Get your cancellation confirmation number โ write it down
- Ask about your final bill and equipment return instructions
๐ก Best time to call: Tuesday-Thursday mid-morning. Monday mornings and Friday afternoons have the longest hold times.
In Person (Alternative)
Visit a local Breezeline office to cancel and return equipment in one trip. Bring your account info and photo ID. Not all areas have physical offices โ check breezeline.com for locations.
Equipment Return
โ ๏ธ Return ALL equipment within 10-14 days or face charges of $100-300+ per device. Modems, routers, cable boxes, remotes โ everything.
- Drop off at a Breezeline office โ get a receipt
- Ship it back โ ask the agent for a prepaid return label during your cancellation call
- Keep your receipt for 6+ months โ ISPs have a history of claiming unreturned equipment
- Take a photo of the equipment and serial numbers before returning
Retention Offers
Breezeline agents will try to keep you. Common tactics:
- Discounted rate for 6-12 months โ promotional pricing that reverts to full price
- Speed upgrade at the same price โ sometimes genuinely worthwhile if speed was your issue
- Free month of service โ delays your cancellation by a month
If you're leaving due to price, the retention discount might actually be worth taking โ Breezeline's retention offers tend to be reasonable. But if you have a better alternative available, just decline.
Your Final Bill
- Breezeline bills in advance โ you've already paid for the current month
- You may receive a prorated credit for unused days (varies by location and plan)
- Any unreturned equipment charges will appear on your final bill
- Early termination fee may apply if you're under contract (check your agreement)
Alternatives in Breezeline's Service Areas
- T-Mobile Home Internet: $50/month, no contract, good in most suburban areas
- Fiber (if available): Check for AT&T Fiber, Verizon Fios, or local fiber providers โ usually better speed and reliability
- Starlink: $120/month โ only practical for rural areas with no cable/fiber options
- Local ISPs: Check broadbandnow.com โ smaller providers often have better service in Breezeline's coverage areas
The Name Change Confusion
If you're confused about the branding: Atlantic Broadband rebranded to Breezeline in 2022 after being acquired by Cogeco (a Canadian telecom company). Your account, equipment, and services are the same โ just a different name on the bill.
