Bury cable line

On 5/15 or 5/16 I was notified via text that there was some disruption in service. I was not home; reported nothing to you. I returned 5/17 to find a cable hanging from the pine trees in our front yard. I have been trying for two weeks to get someone to come and bury the cable. On 5/28 and 5/29 someone was supposed to come between 6 and 8PM. NO ONE CAME. I want this resolved ASAP!!!!!!

Hello @user_t4ah86, thank you for bringing this to our attention. I would like to let you know that unlike traditional technician visits our cable burial appointments are tentative. The team that works those orders aims to have the work completed within a 14-day window of the work order being created, and even then there are many factors that can cause a delay. Their work can take varying amount of times depending on the complexity of the jobs they work which is why the appointments aren't set in stone. We can take a closer look at the work order to confirm the status, and escalate of need be. Just send our team a direct message with your full name and service address.
