Cox did not fully bury our cable.

Cox buried the cable in our yard, but to give us access, they had to put cable in a neighbor's yard as well. That section of cable was not buried when ours was.

It has now been several months. Our neighbor was gracious enough to spell out the problem. I did not realize their unburied cable was ours. Since then, I have tried to use the sub-optimal AI/chatbot Cox uses to no effect and I even went to a Cox store to physically talk to someone. (She wrote down my address and a week later, nothing has happened.)

What has to happen? Who do I contact? This is a disaster, for my family, waiting to happen.

  • Hi, Greg. I'm really sorry for the unburied line. Although we are unable to address it here, please email us at cox.help@cox.com with your full name, complete street address, the details of your concern and a link to this post. We would be glad to assist you.

    Ostensibly, I was told this would be resolved within 72 Business hours of an offline communication via e-mail. That communication took place on Dec 10, 2024, at 11:39 AM. Here and now, Dec 13th, 2024, at 4 PM, the fiber optic cable is still above ground, in their yard.

    As of 4:02 PM, 12/16/2024, the cable is still unburied and no one, aside from Chris, has contacted me.
