$43 a month
Lower recurring bill · from the bot's own report
The poster's claim
$113.90 to $70.90 a month for 300 Mbps, no contract ($43 a month less).
The money
- Type
- Lower recurring bill
- Measured against
- Compared with the previous bill
- Per month
- $43 (from the bot's own report)
- Per year
- $516 (from the bot's own report)
- Rough first-year value in USD
- $516 (from the bot's own report)
How this is counted: Monthly cut of $43 x 12 months = $516, assuming the new price holds for a year (no contract, no end date stated). The plan is slower than his previous one.
What the post shows
Evidence: Bot's own report The post shows the bot's own messages. The provider's side is not shown.
Only artifact is a cropped screenshot of the bot's summary (order number redacted). No Xfinity email, chat or bill. The bot says the lower price will appear as an adjustment on the next bill, not yet seen. In replies the owner says he was on 500-600 Mbps before, so the new 300 Mbps plan is slower.
Stage: Reported done As reported, the change is in effect or the money has landed. This says what was reported, not how well it is proven.
What they asked the bot
Prompt (adapted)
Told the bot to go figure out how to pay for itself.
Paraphrased from the post, not the exact words.
What the bot did
Picked the Xfinity bill, negotiated with an Xfinity rep, turned down a mobile-line upsell twice, got the owner's approval, and said it would check next month's bill for the adjustment.
