Down cable line

On Monday, a garbage truck hit a cable line and as a result, the cable line which goes across our front yard is now only 6 1/2 feet from the ground. It was up to 12-15 feet off the ground.

I reported this to Xfinity by phone on Monday moments after it happened. In fact, there is a police report. The police were called to the scene to fine the driver.

I also have an Xfinity ticket number to reference.

The issue is: no one has been out to my property yet to fix this. We are still getting a signal, but here’s the issue: we have construction and contractors coming Thursday afternoon to do backyard work, and their vehicles will be driving across said front yard! That means the lower cable line will be in their way.

This needs to be done ASAP.

I called and getting someone out for this is like pulling teeth but the nice woman I spoke with, Anna, is trying her best.

Concern moved here to the Customer Service help section for greater exposure to Comcast corporate employees (The Digital Care Team) for assistance.

I have the exact same issue. The Xfinity line that crosses our property and driveway is sagging and work trucks hit it coming and going. we own a motor coach and will be leaving for a trip and will most likely pull the entire line down. This needs to be corrected and I’ve attempted for over a year to get a technician / subcontractor through Xfinity many many times   nothing at all done. At my wits end.  any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated

We would be happy to get this resolved for you as we want to ensure that this is resolved for you once and for all. I know how frustrating it can be to reach out to support multiple times.
