Drop Burial Request

A temporary drop cable was installed to replace an old one at my home on 9/9/2024 and a drop burial request was submitted that day to bury it under my driveway.  I received an email confirmation that the request had been submitted and I called Xfinity to make some changes to the request.  I believe my call was routed to someone in Billing who said that someone was scheduled to come out that same Wednesday to complete the job.  I rescheduled it to Monday, 9/16/2024 8-10am, however no one showed, neither Xfinity or a burial contractor.  Now, in the request submission email I received, it says a Dig Safe provider should be sent to locate and mark my underground utilities, but that has yet to be completed.  I have tried requesting a status update on the burial request through the Xfinity Assistant, but am only getting a canned response.  I'm concerned that the drop burial request is not being tended to and may start to collect dust in your work order queue.  Any suggestions on if this can be looked into or how to get the ball rolling on the request?
