We called our credit union, and they said the check was never presented, plus we have "overdraft protection", where if there isn't enough money in the checking account they still pay it and just charge it to our Visa account.
Comcast wasn't impressed by this, and said that bottom line the only way to solve the overdraft would be to pay the balance over the phone with a credit card number, and they would not consider waiving the penalties involved.
I wonder if Direct TV operates so shabbily...

The bottom line is if the check was presented and returned than Comcast will have it, with the NSF stamp on the back. IMO, your best course is to get the bank to tell you in writing that they never got the check, then escalate it with Comcast.
