Comcast cable line buried in my back yard

I submitted an 811 request today to have the coaxial cable located in my back yard. I got a response from Comcast saying "Comcast has determined there is no conflict based off the information provided by the one call center ticket." However, I'm sure there is a cable buried in my yard in the location I'm going to dig. How do I go about getting this located and marked so I don't cut it when I dig?

jeffcreek0103 You will not see the direct message option until you have made your first public post. We ask that you first start any Xfinity Forum interaction by posting your concern in the most appropriate related public board. From there you will start receiving responses right away. Sometimes you may receive a reply from an employee, but more likely, you will receive assistance from another Comcast customer. If you do receive a reply from an employee, they will invite you to send us a direct message if needed. We ask that you please refrain from sending any employee, our XfinitySupport team, or any Xfinity Forum user an unsolicited direct message. Sending unsolicited direct message is a violation of both our Xfinity Forum Guidelines and our Xfinity Forum Acceptable Use Policy. Please remember, by having an account and utilizing these forums, you have already agreed to the rules, policies, and guidelines contained within those documents as well as any other posted documents throughout the community.
