My agent chases the money I am owed, by email and by phone

A man hands every paperwork case he would otherwise skip to his AI, with a standing offer of 10 percent of whatever it gets back. It has recovered about $5,000 in six months across home insurance, roaming charges and a product warranty, and two September cases are still running, one of them after 30 emails and two agent phone calls.

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

How it works

  1. Hand the case to the AI with a 10 percent recovery offer
  2. The AI works the claim by email
  3. The AI makes AI phone calls where email stalls
  4. Money recovered or case stays in progress

Why it’s worth knowing

It does not just draft the complaint. It sends the emails, makes the phone calls and keeps going for weeks until the money moves.
