Haggle my Fiber 1000 bill down in the support chat

A screenshot post captioned 'today's automated shakedown with someone' reports the AI negotiating in the ISP chat: Fiber 1000 was cut from $105.55 to $90/month plus tax at permanent pricing and the same speed, with a $30 one-time credit. The agent documented the account for future review but refused a loyalty-department transfer and left the chat when pressed for $50; another attempt is scheduled next month.

This only partly worked. Read what happened before you try it.

How it works

  1. The AI opens the ISP support chat
  2. Negotiates the Fiber 1000 price
  3. Secures $90/month plus tax, permanent pricing, same speed
  4. Obtains a $30 one-time credit
  5. Documents the account for future review
  6. Declines a loyalty transfer and exits when pressed for $50
  7. Follow-up attempt scheduled for next month

Why it’s worth knowing

It banked the discount, documented the account for next time, and knew when to walk away from the chat.
