There could be about 1,568 reasons. Need a lot more information. It's hard to imagine the cable tech would leave your house without testing the cable to see if it works. You should call your local Comcast office and they can troubleshoot it over the phone. It's probably that your remote isn't set up correctly, but becase we don't know what kind of cable box, TV or remote you have, we can't be of much help.
