Unburied cable in my back yard

Weeks ago comcast line techs had to replace a cable from one node to another and that cable crossed under by yard.  I talked to the techs that day the assured me that it will be buried fast and it hasn't.  Even though this will affect me right now if the cable is not buried this coming week I will remove the liability from my back yard if Xfinity does not bury the cable.   I already have talked with a sales rep at Ezze Fiber about replacing Comcast.

It has been longer then 14 days and still no action has been take.  Comcast need to come and fix this issue before I fix the issue myself

Just a update Comcast still has not buried the cable and trying to find someone to contact this issue is not a easy task.

Comcast still has not come and taken care of there cable that is just casually laying in my backyard.  I will not be responsible for any damage to this cable because Comcast will not come out and correct the problem the made.
