What is the fine print did they say when you signed up? Below is what they said now.
Two-year contract required. Early termination fee applies. To qualify for offer, service must be ordered via www.comcast.com. After first 12 months, monthly service charge for Starter XF Triple Play goes to $119.99 for months 13-24. After 3 months, monthly service charge for HBO® goes to $10.00 for months 4-12. After promotional period, or if any service is cancelled or downgraded, regular rates apply. Comcast’s current monthly service charges vary, based on area, as follows: Starter XF Triple Play: from $136.99 to $144.95; HBO®: from $13.95 to $23.95; HD DVR service: from $15.95 to $26.95. Comcast’s current monthly service charge for XFINITY Streampix™ is $4.99. TV and Internet service limited to a single outlet. Applicable equipment, installation, taxes, franchise fees, the Regulatory Recovery Fee and other applicable charges (e.g., per-call or international charges) extra.

They have charges here and there after you sign up. The $99 does not include taxes & other charges from where you live. Did they charge for installation fee as a separated charge? I don't see any detail in your original post.
