Nothing to do with cable, but depending on what kind of a tree, and how big, you might be able to sell it for lumber, and they will take it down, or so others have done in the past.

Success!
After talking with a lady in the office of the City of Hoover this has been fixed, but I still dont think they know what happened.
 
A man from Charter's office called early today saying that he was going to look into what happened and find the contract company that came out to bury the line. He said he would have that office call me.
 
While I was out and a good ways from the house I got a call from the contract company saying that someone would be at the house in 1 to 2 hours....????? I was not even sure what they were going to do.. I just wanted to talk to someone first.
 
So I get home and they are there. Guy got a little attitude with me because they had been there for about 20min and could not get in the yard!!!!!!!!!!!!! (We got key locks by brinks and they are on the inside of the fence this time!) I asked why they were told to come... honestly I could not understand 80% of what they were saying. So we got it figured out that they would see if they could move the line in a direction where it would not go over the septic tank etc. Not having the best luck because of the ROCKS. The guys boss calls and tells them to stop what they are doing and leave! so they do and they tell me that a Charter crew has been sent to re-hang the line!
 
and where is it now.... in the air Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin
 
The 2 man crew that came hung the line with no problem and also said that if the first crew/man that had come out 2 weeks ago had done it right in the first place we would not have had to go through all this.  
 
So thank you thank you to the Charter guys who came out today, one said he lived in the area (just a few streets over)

Glad to hear your line is back in the air!
 
I've always had good experiences with charter. We have their cable, internet, and phone package and anytime I have a problem they have always been right out to take care of it.  I don't think  they have every sent "contractors" out to do anything- its always been someone in a charter vehicle/uniform.  Maybe thats the key to get one fo their people and not let them send an outsourced contractor.

Another happy DirecTV user here.  I've been with them for over 5 years and never had a problem.

I had been with Direct TV for over five years.  I was tired of paying the "higher rates", so I went with a Charter bundle.  What a mistake!  Charter has terrible HD TV.  I stayed with them for almost one month and now I am back with Direct TV, but I did keep the Charter for my broadband (computer).
 
Oh, Charter when they installed the Cable, they did bury my line.  That was nice.  They only go down about four inches, but it was a pretty good job.
 
If you decide to go to Direct TV or if you need an additional box from Direct TV, let me know.  The contractor that did our installation was very friendly and they also do a professional job. Smiley

I am going to check and see if we can get Direct TV, not sure about the trees and if they will block satellite. I am tired of never being able to watch the ONDemand movies we pay for.  
 
One day 2 years ago I go so mad at Charter bc of how badly their Internet Service was (I cancelled during this episode and now have Bellsouth DSL- vastly superior) I wrote Honk If You HATE Charter on my car and drove around town for a day like that. I got a few honks, but mostly crazy looks. I went home and washed it off. Just an example of how crazy Charter makes people!!!  Roll Eyes

I have bundled with Bellsouth. Dish Network has been great.  Rebates of 250.00 for switching from charter. You should look into Dish over Direct
