Bury Line
Hi,
I recently moved into a new residential property and did not have internet service available at the time of move-in. Xfinity sent a technician on January 18, 2026 to inspect the property. The technician determined that the existing cable was defective.
He also advised that running an overland cable was not feasible, as the internal pedestal is positioned in a way that would require the cable to cross a sidewalk, creating a potential trip hazard. As a result, a buried line was identified as the appropriate solution.
I have been patient while waiting for this to be addressed, but I would appreciate an update on when the buried line will be placed. Could someone please contact me to provide a status update or next steps?
Thank you for your assistance.
Best regards,



EG
