Installation charged without consent

I basically had a house move and had to transfer the Internet. I had a replacement of model by visiting a physical store. But they couldn't scan that modem into the system so I had many calls and visit to the store to sort it out.

Finally they said someone has to come and look into it. I thought it was because of some issue on their side and no one told about the dollar 100 fee. 

When I finally saw the 100 in the bill I called back customer service. I was told that it was part of some fine print that I should have known about that charge. I also read in this forum that I should have given verbal consent or something like that I was not told about this charge by anyone before the scheduled visit. The visit wasn't even something I asked for as I did self installation on my own previously.

Also the person who came in found that a given port was not working and that I just had to use another port in my house and no other wiring or replacement was done.

Just wanted to know if I can get back the 100 or not?
