Xfinity contractor cut through Invisible (dog) Fence

On Thursday, April 23, 2026, a contractor hired by Comcast Xfinity dug a trench through my yard to replace “old” conduit. In the process, the contractor that Comcast Xfinity hired sliced through my Invisible Fence line (the cut Invisible Fence line was located on my property, not the utility easement running across the frontage) leaving it nonfunctional. The funny (not funny) thing is the utility easement area was not touched with their shovels and Ditch Witch machinery, only my property. 

I contacted Comcast Xfinity that evening (April 23, 2026, 10:30pm) and a ticket reporting the damage was created to repair the Invisible Fence. The agent on the phone (John) gave me a confirmation number and repeatedly assured me I would be either compensated or the line would be repaired at no cost to me. It’s been a week now and my dogs are still not able to go outside without supervision. I have also not been contacted or updated about any type of remedy except with the following message through my customer portal:

“An agent is now reviewing your ticket.

 

WHAT'S NEXT:

If you have a number on file, you I'll get a text message when this has been reviewed. You can check your ticket status by logging into xfinity.com

I have checked that ticket status each day and zero progress has been made. How long does it take to review? It’s actually quite simple, Xfinity’s hired contractor cut through the Invisible Fence line on my property…done, no more review needed. Fix it. 

Comcast Xfinity made it a top priority to satisfy a single customer (my neighbor across the street) and screwed over another Comcast Xfinity customer (me) in the process. You should care about ALL of your customers. I did not request you to dig up my front yard and I certainly did not cut through my own dog fence line. Comcast Xfinity and the contractor you hired are at fault here. Treating anyone like this, especially a 20 year customer (again, me), is completely unacceptable. I am demanding this be addressed immediately. 

P.S. I have seen the other related posts on this forum. I am sure I won’t be the last person complaining about this type of thing. Clearly, this happens a lot with the contractors Xfinity hires. You should vet and choose these companies more carefully as THEY DO represent your company.
