They somehow accessed a bank account I rarely use and they sent me an invoice asking to pay to see only a day later after the invoice was sent they charged this account anyways. I found them through mint and not sure if that’s how they accessed it or not. And customer service refused to refund that account to let me pay out of another. Beyond annoying and frustrating.
They reduced the bill by canceling services, something anyone can do. Then take 40% for two years. the point of hiring them is negotiating a lower bill while maintaining current level of service. Any idiot can save me money by canceling things.
I used Billshark in the hope to get savings that I can't get on my own. But they simply choose the lower cost plan and charge me 40% which I can just do it by clicking a button on my App. What a scam

@hnshah Thanks Hiten, you always share great hunts. I just uploaded my Dish and Time Warner bills so we'll see what happens!
@hnshah@steve_mckean@hoody11100@thisischrisbell Here's a screenshot from my BillShark dashboard taken a few minutes ago:
I spent only about 15 minutes total creating an account, uploading 3 bills (pdfs) and talking on the phone to Jennifer from BillShark to answer a couple questions. In total I saved over $1,100 on Verizon, DISH and Time Warner (not including BillShark fees). Totally worth the time spent.
Keep in mind the honor system is in full play here, you're giving them access to your accounts, but you might be surprised at how little personal info they actually need to make these changes.

Great to see Billshark on PH! It really is awesome. Saved ~$3,500 by uploading att wireless and DIRECTV bills. Super simple.

@jsbullseyestrat That's awesome. I just uploaded Comcast and Verizon, so let's see where we get to.
@jsbullseyestrat Good: they renegotiated my Comcast bill- my bill was reduced by $13/mo and the speed went up. Bad: you have to pay their cut up front via invoice.
I love this idea and I call to reduce my bills all the time. But I am worried about how it is done:
1. Do the sharks pretend to be the individual? I know some companies require the person on the bill to make any changes to the account.
2. Are there any partnerships with these companies to make better deals?
3. How do sharks get the "best" deals if they don't threaten to switch or cancel?
@matthewtwhuang to answer your questions: 1. Depends on the provider. Some require it, some do not. In cases of the former, we work with you to along with the provider to achieve authentication. 2. Not yet. 3. Who said we don't 'threaten'? 😉 serious though, we work with the right departments at the provider (most customers just dial the number on their bill), and know what to ask for and how to ask for it. There are lots of "incentives" that aren't offered unless you're persistent or know how to ask for them specifically.

When I send in bills, do you call to get permission before calling or just call after the bill is uploaded?
@amyers Hi Aaron! Can you please clarify your question?
Report
@hoody11100 If I submit my bill, do you go and call them right then? I've seen other services that make you call in and talk with someone before they'll call in. So they can have your "recorded permission"
@amyers gotcha! No. We go right into negotiating your bill. When you enroll, you agree to the terms, giving us permission to negotiate on your behalf. There are some providers in which we may need to contact you to before-hand, but we only do so if necessary.

if a user has the legacy AT&T unlimited digital plan, is there any risk that would get negotiated out by billshark unknowingly?
Hi @ifthenplay! Not if you tell us not to. We have a "special instructions" field in the enrollment process. If you annotate that specifically, we wouldn't switch you. We've done it with some customer's in cases where we were able to put them in the NEW unlimited plan at a lower rate.

Ok.. I took the plunge and saved (net) $10/month on ATT and got a $20 (net) credit on Comcast. I have to say now that I have gone through the process I'm a little fearful that Billshark staff now have enough information to impersonate me on other services I use (banks, credit cards, etc). I gave them my name, birthdate, last four digits of social. How are other peeps feeling about this? Two security issues. First Billshark is probably storing my info on their servers. Second are the people on the team.... who have successfully impersonated me and could walk with that info? Just sharing my feelings after a couple days.
