Overhead Comcast line needs removed

Hello,

I have an old rotten utility pole on a small easement. The pole used to feed power to my house and at one point it looks like Xfinity attached to it to feed the neighbors house. The pole is in bad shape and the utility company has approved me to take everything underground and remove the pole. The last thing attached is the Xfinity line. I have tried to call and use the chat function with customer service a few times now and keep

getting ran around with no one able to help. How do I get ahold of someone who can assist with seeing if this line is still active or if it can be removed completely? In talks with my neighbor he thought that it was an old

line that used to feed his house before the new utility poles were installed and cable was rerouted to his house.
