This is not fiber internet! Same old coax. Very asymmetric connection with 1gbps down but only 40mbps up

Xfinity Internet is powered by fiber and connected to premises by coaxial cable
One drawback to this is upload and download speeds are not symmetric - the headline advertised speed is the download speed, but upload speeds are typically significantly lower. For example, looking at the Broadband Facts of the 1 Gig plan in my area, they specify typical download speed at 1170 mbps and typical upload speed at 117 mbps. In the past in different areas, I've seen advertised typical upload speeds as low as 20-40 mbps.
That may be perfectly fine for many people, in which case this is a good deal. But make sure to take a look at the upload speed for your area and confirm that it's fast enough for your needs.

After first year, I can cancel and go somewhere for mobile.
update - CS totally messed up trying to close one account and activate the other. I'm somewhere in-between one being active and the other on its way becoming active. it's confusing everyone at Xfinity on how I got two accounts on the same address. fingers crossed my internet eventually stops working and I can activate my existing modem on the new account pending activation. Right now I can't add my existing modem to the new service because it still belongs to the old account. Haven't gotten a clear answer on how long it takes to 'remove' service from my old account and release the modem's mac address.
A couple of years ago, I was on Comcast and signed up for a comcast.net email account. When AT&T fiber became available in my area, I canceled my Comcast service and switch to AT&T fiber, but was still able to keep my comcast.net email account at no cost. About 2 years after that, I moved and the only real option at my new place was Comcast. So now I'm back on Comcast and still have that same email account.

I know I'm being overcharged compared with other providers and rates I see advertised, however, I do not want to lose my longtime comcast email addresses (6 in family) if I switch my service to another provider or if I put my account in my wife's name.
How does my monthly charges compare with others? What advice would you suggest for lowering my monthly rate (I'd prefer to keep the internet land line as my cell reception (Yes, Xfinity Mobile) is poor. Same as all other major carriers since I seem to live in a dead zone. I've tried them all via either friends' phones and/or trial Sim testing. RSRP is -123dB... (terrible).
Thanks!
