Did your phone work properly with the previous modem? If not, you could have a faulty tap. Internet and TV operation may function properly, but phone service can fail. That happened to me.

It's also possible the new modem isn't an eMTA (modem with telephone capability). If there's no issue with your modem or other equipment, the new modem may need to be provisioned. If your phone not working is caused by any of the things I mentioned, you shouldn't be charged for the Cox tech visit.
