Get your internet bill cut by having ChatGPT negotiate in the provider's live chat

After a door-to-door rep offered fiber for $50 a month, AJ Stuyvenberg had ChatGPT negotiate their Verizon bill through Verizon's own live chat. After a little over an hour it got the bill to $69.99 from $94.99 plus a $47.50 loyalty credit, which they said saves $347.50 over a year.

Try it yourself

What you get

A lower monthly bill or a loyalty credit, negotiated in the provider's chat while you do something else.

Tools

  • ChatGPT with computer use, in a browser already logged in to your provider
  • A real competing offer

Time / cost: A little over an hour in live chat (per Business Insider)

Steps

  1. Get a real competing offer first (the author's was a $50/month fiber offer from Comcast) and note your current bill.
  2. Log in to your provider's account in the browser the agent will use.
  3. Give the agent the competing offer and your current bill, and ask it to negotiate a lower bill in the provider's chat.
  4. Watch the chat and approve any plan change yourself before it's accepted.
  5. Compare the final offer with the competitor's. The author's agent reported Verizon wouldn't go below $69.99 and suggested taking the Comcast offer; the author stayed for the service.
