tree trimming

i m aware of previous posts regarding tree trimming and removal. I have 2 more specific questions regarding lines in trees and potential problems.

The first being a dead tree on my property entwined with what i believe are 3 comcast trunk lines on a comcast right of way that I'd like to remove. The second being i a tree I'll be cutting down with a power and comcast service cable in. The power company will be coming to lower and deenergize their cable when i remove it. What is comcast's protocol for such a thing?

I talked to a comcast representative who said comcast will not move anything and their policy is only to show up and replace and repair when it is damaged. Is this true?

I have a similar issue in my yard with significant vegetation on cable lines, professional companies wont go near them due to liability, I have spoken with the call center but they refuse to deal with this other than to take down or replace lines. Seems odd that you'd be happy to let the lines fall rather than to proactively protect them from dead trees and vines. Would be great to speak to someone who can resolve this
