cable left on ground

It has been a month since the technician put a drop cable for my internet in my yard.  How do I get you to bury it?  I runs across my driveway and we constantly have to move it.

Hello Xfinity, similar issue. A drop line is on the corner of my property, passes through the rain gutter in front of my house and goes two houses down. The line was placed there on June 9th. I called to complain about it on August 7th and the agent on the phone said they were scheduled to take care of it on Monday the 17th. That never happened.
