WHAT THEY SAY

The claim

Total bill went from $275 to $71. The author plans to add a couple of streaming services.

Grok Bot: what it did

Negotiated the author's Verizon cable bill in a chat session while the author watched; both suspect the other side was an AI that escalated to another AI. Cancelled TV, set up autopay and added a veteran's discount.

Paraphrased from the post, not the exact words.

The money

Lower recurring bill

Per month
$204
First year, in USD
$2,448

How this is counted: $204 a month x 12 months = $2,448. Part of the drop comes from cancelling TV, and the author plans to pay for streaming services instead.

WHAT THE POST SHOWS

Evidence: Text only Stage: Reported done

Text only, across the post and two replies by the author. $275 and $71 are the total bill; the drop includes cancelling TV, so not all of it is a lower price for the same service. The bill is taken as monthly.
