Damage to my sewer line from cable installation

Good morning, 

In early August 2025, our sewer line had a clog, which we snaked with a plumber, alleviating the blockage. Two weeks ago, we had another blockage - again snaked, and the blockage cleared. Earlier this week, we had another blockage.

Independent camera analysis performed by a third party indicates that the blockage is caused by a Comcast underground cable installed through our sewer line. I am happy to share the video and the independent analysis.

To date, we have incurred approximately $1,000 in costs associated with your cable. 

Currently, we cannot use our sewer system. 

Here is what I want:

1) Reimbursement for all future costs associated with repairing my sewer line caused by your cable. 

2) Reimbursement of all past costs associated with clearing blockages directly associated with your cable

3) All work and reimbursements must be done before December 19th. 

4) Coordination between our plumbing and your Comcast team so that the cable can be moved during the repair process. 

If the work is not completed by December 19th, we will incur additional costs, which we will pass on to you. 

I would appreciate your timely resolution of this issue. 


Thank you

Good morning. I was supposed to hear back within 1 business day of opening the case. That did not occur. Please understand that if your team is not willing to take this seriously and work with us, we will have no choice but to cut your cable during the repair process. Please respond immediately.

@user_j77dor, Good morning. We definitely do take this seriously. I chatted with you last week and let you know what the estimated resolution date was, so you would be aware. That is still the case today. I am confident the team will get this resolved as soon as possible. Thanks for bearing with us.

@user_j77dor, I'm not sure what the reason would be that no one reached out yet, and I apologize for that, but I can see that the documents were received, and the wheels are in motion. I notated the case  that you are looking for contact as soon as possible. If you have any more questions in the meantime, our private conversation is still open as well. Thanks
