yes they did, they were in action
The 11th Armoured Division was the first to receive the new tanks in December 1944
The Comet was involved in the crossing of the Rhine and the later Berlin Victory Parade in July 1945. The Comet's maximum speed of 32 miles per hour was greatly exploited on the German Autobahns.

@AOEPWNS11 yes most unfortunately

Actually they didn't. The British used the Centurion and in some recon units the Cromwell. But the Comet stayed in British service until about 1960, last serving with the Hong Kong garrison. The Comet was also in service with Burma, Finland and South Africa.

An extremely fast cruiser tank with a heavy gun and high reliability... so yes.
