I have pictures, and I promise I won't send another cent. We're not talking major damage, but it needs to get fixed nevertheless.

Update:
They fired the crew that did my job and sent a different crew over on Saturday to fix/complete everything that needed fixing/completing. They knocked $150 off the price for the "damage" which was fine by me.
I paid them off and sent them on their merry way.
I'm having my deck replaced today and these guys have been here since 10 a.m. working -- in the rain -- and will be done today. It looks beautiful.
I look like I have a whole new house!

I have to take new "after" pictures, and then figure out how to post them.

Notice how he waited to see if you'd electrocute yourself before offering assistance. You won, because not seeing you die in a spectacular flash put a damper on his day

phone lines are low voltage. They have enough zap to piss you off, but not enough to create amusement for someone else, unless you run around screaming like a pussy.

If you electrocute yourself on those little phone wires, you are a moron.

Done that, splicing a off shoot using a phone plate on a phone line in a 110 degree attic

I am a moron simply because when I was still living at my parents my dad installed a new light switch in my bathroom. He put it in upside down and after looking at this thing for a month I decide to fix it. Grab a screwdrive take the plate off unscrew the light switch and grab it to flip it around. Jesus christ! wooooooooh! Oh yeah circuit breaker? What circuit breaker? DOh.
