During the installation of my Verizon triple play at my new home, the technician performing the installation drilled into a live wire in my home, causing a shortage and tripping the breaker for my basement, garage, and bathroom. I told him to call his supervisor and get someone to take care of it, but the supervisor refused to talk to me over cell phone and insisted that I get two quotes and contact him via his office phone and leave a message.
First of all, most electricians don't make house calls simply for a quote without some sort of fee. Secondly, why do I have to go out of my way to fix a problem that an employee of Verizon created? The integrity of my home has been compromised, and this manager didn't even seem to care. I tried calling him multiple times and was sent straight to voicemail every time. I left a stern message, demanding he take care of this, but it's been over 24 hours with no reply. I called Verizon and the representative simply stated that an agent would contact me the next day (now today) about fixing my wire, and I have yet to receive that call.
I'm furiously trying to remain calm, but my patience is running thin. I need to know who to contact to get this fixed IMMEDIATELY. There is an exposed wire in my home, and I have no power in three important locations of the house. Could somebody please point me in the right direction before I lose my mind.
