Downed cable line

We have a downed cable line that is laying across our yard that came down in a storm. It was ripped out of the side of my house and I no longer have service. We have since cleaned up the storm debris that took it down and also have power restored. Xfinity assistant is not helping me contact someone for a solution. Would you be able to help?

I'm having the same problem here. I had a cable line ripped off the side of my house during bad weather on Thursday, February 3rd. I called xfinity immediately to report the issue, but was told that the customer service agent couldn't send anyone out to my house because there was an outage detected in my neighborhood. I've called back or chatted with an assistant almost every day since this happened. It wasn't until I reported it as a safety issue, that I was told a technician would come out. The person was supposed to come to my house on Saturday (2/12), but no one showed up. I haven't had cable or internet for what will soon be two weeks. I was told that a person couldn't come out today because of the weather, but it was 60 degrees and sunny.

I'm so confused and frustrated. I don't feel like anyone can help me. Were you able to get the issue resolved?
