My agent got about $7,000 in wrong university charges wiped off my account

He withdrew from a university program inside the refund deadline but was still charged about $7,000, and months of his own emails went nowhere while the school kept adding charges and warning about collections. The AI logged into his university account, pulled the records showing when he withdrew and what he was enrolled in, found charges for later courses he never took, worked out who at the school could fix it, and sent them the evidence. The balance was removed.

$7,000

How it works

  1. Log into the university account
  2. Pull withdrawal and enrollment records
  3. Spot charges for later courses he never took
  4. Find the staff and departments with authority to fix it
  5. Send the dispute with the evidence
  6. Balance removed

Why it’s worth knowing

It did not just draft another email. It went through his account, found charges he had not noticed, and got the proof in front of the right people.
