Don't tell Comcast

All the channels available come into your home via the cable - it's up to the decoder boxes which ones you can watch. Often the cable com will authorize some of the boxes to get more channels than you're paying for, hoping that you will call and sign up for them when they get switched off again in a couple of weeks.

This. space-time largely had the same thought. Since cable companies have done their best to require access to leased equipment that the cable company has full control over, I take the position it is their responsibility to figure out what channels can be properly accessed. If it's a true mistake, they'll eventually filter the channels out

On the flip side, it is fair to say your responsibility is to make sure Comcast is actually providing the channels in your actual tier. If one of your actual channels disappears, Comcast may never fix the problem unless you tell them.
