Property Damage Claim - Water line

I have read a few posts here about property damage going unresolved for some time, but after reaching out to different departments it appears I am still stuck. I was having an install on 11/26/16 and the technician hit my water line underneath my sidewalk while drilling for the connection. The technician assured me that I would receive a call about a claim, and honestly he was quite apologetic and sincere. After not receiving a call I called AT&T and they said there was no claim, but they created one for me. Since then Sedgwick has contacted me once to get information about the claim. Since then, I have gotten a quote from a plumber to repair the damage($1,600 mind you), but the adjuster told me that they cannot move forward without the technicians info. I actually gave that info to the adjuster 2 weeks ago, but I have not been able to get in contact with them since. Calling AT&T does not appear to help, as they do not process claims, they simply can see them on the account, and calling Sedgwick has not helped either.. Because they won't answer their phone. Is there any way other than complaining to the BBB to get this resolved?

Sorry to hear about your problem with your water line. Have you been able to resolve this issue? In your case, I strongly suggest you hire a PA so they can help you understand your rights as the policy holder. They will document all the damage to determine the cause of the problem with your water line and negotiate with your insurance. The most appealing part is that most public adjusters only get paid when you've been paid (by the insurance). You don't pay anything out of pocket, and if the public adjuster can't help you, then they don't receive any money. Good luck!

Hello, I have a similar issue and have found that AT&T acted irresponsibly and in an attempt to obfuscate to hide the publicity deleted the post on facebook (a picture has been taken to prove they attempted this in case its needed later).  Because AT&T has been so flagrant about their issues, It may be better for all those affected band together for a (Edited per community guidelines) (Edited per community guidelines). What do you think, AT&T?  Please contact me at [email scrubbed] as I would rather get this taken care of amicably.

Additionally, I addressed this issue on Facebook. I was asked to email them my contact information and the deleted the post without calling, messaging or escalating.  Please inform me where we can go to report this as it shows intentional action to perpetuate a cover up of damages done by AT&T.
