Billshark is a bill negotiation service that lowers recurring costs for internet, wireless, cable TV, satellite radio, and home security without interrupting service. Customers upload a bill, our experts analyze line items, spot fees, and promotions, then negotiate directly with providers. The model is performance-based: if there are no savings, there is no fee. Communication is handled through secure channels with SMS and email updates, and renewal monitoring keeps rates low over time. Businesses use Billshark for bulk wireless plans and multi-location internet, while households rely on us to remove unwanted add-ons, secure loyalty discounts, and catch overcharges. Typical outcomes include reduced equipment fees, better promotional pricing, and credits for billing errors, all while keeping accounts in the customer's name. You can submit multiple bills at once, track status, and benefit from negotiations completed in days or weeks depending on the provider's response. What Billshark does step by step: collect your latest statement, review every fee, identify promotions, loyalty credits, and competitive offers, call the provider, negotiate to a lower monthly rate, confirm changes, and report savings. Common wins include lowering equipment rental charges, removing unused add-ons like premium channels or device protection, applying promo bundles, correcting billing errors, and securing contract extensions with better terms. The service covers major carriers and regional providers across the US, including cable internet, fiber, DSL, wireless plans, satellite radio subscriptions, and monitored home security systems. Why the performance-based model matters: there are no upfront fees, no retainers, and no payments unless savings are verified on your bill. Billshark aligns incentives with customers by only charging a percentage of realized savings. This approach encourages thorough negotiations, transparent reporting, and clear communication about what changed on your account. Customers keep control of their accounts and can decline any proposed change that does not fit their needs. Security and privacy: bills are uploaded through encrypted channels, stored securely, and managed by trained negotiation specialists. Personally identifiable information and account credentials are handled with care and not shared outside the negotiation process. Renewal monitoring helps avoid surprise price hikes when promotional periods end. SMS and email notifications keep customers informed about progress, approvals, and completed savings. Who benefits: households looking to cut monthly costs without switching providers, businesses managing multiple locations or large wireless fleets, and anyone tired of long calls with customer service. Billshark helps renters, homeowners, students, retirees, and small business owners who need predictable bills and want to avoid paying for unused services. Multi-bill submissions are welcome; the team sequences negotiations to maximize total savings. Typical timelines: many negotiations complete within a few days; some providers require one or two billing cycles to apply credits. Customers can check status anytime and receive confirmation of the new rate, credits applied, and the one-time performance-based fee. Example savings scenarios: negotiating a $20 monthly reduction on cable internet by switching to a loyalty rate, removing a $10 equipment fee by returning unused hardware, applying a $15 promotional credit for 12 months on a wireless plan, or securing a $200 one-time credit for repeated outages. For businesses, savings may include bulk plan optimization, pooled data plans, and reduced overage charges across multiple lines. Frequently asked questions answered: Do you cancel service? No, the goal is to keep service active while lowering cost. Do you require contracts? No, you authorize negotiations and pay only if we save you money. Can you work with bundled services? Yes, we negotiate bundles and stand-alone plans. How often should I submit bills? Annual submissions or before promo expirations keep rates low. What if my provider says no? We escalate, retry with additional offers, or confirm that the current rate is already optimized. Getting started is simple: create an account, upload clear photos or PDFs of your bills, and confirm contact preferences. Billshark takes it from there, handling calls, documenting offers, and presenting results. The service was designed to be easy, transparent, and risk-free for every customer looking to pay less for the same service.
It was the dragging seen ‘round the world. A man who had paid for his seat, and already boarded, refused to remove himself to make room for an employee from a subsidiary airline of United. So the airline called in local police to “re-accommodate” him (with a broken nose, two missing teeth, and a concussion).
Yes, it was outrageous, but something else contributed to the feral howl that emanated from nearly every one of the millions who viewed the video. Who among us hasn’t felt manhandled, even assaulted, by the giant corporations who hold sway over pretty much every aspect of our lives?
For example, flying used to be fun. You had room not only for your belongings, but for your body. You were served full meals on white china bowls and plates, not six pretzels plus soda you have to pay for. Then came deregulation in the ‘80s, when airlines were released from the so-called “heavy hand of job-killing regulations,” and they went from operating as a public utility to performing as profit-making corporations whose sole aim was to extract as much money as possible from the flying public while seeing how many service cuts that same public would stand for.
Consuming used to be enjoyable. You could purchase a product and expect it to last for many years. If by chance you had a problem with the product, or a service you’d paid for, you could pick up the phone and find a human on the other line, whom you could understand perfectly. Then came the days of unfettered corporate power and the decline of union membership, when the employees who built and maintained your business came to be considered just another bottom-line expense to be “slim lined,” “downsized,” “outsourced.”
In days gone by, you could call your phone company or bank or insurance company—without pressing buttons—and find a friendly operator who would ask, “How may I direct your call?” If you weren’t sure, she would listen to your story and help you find the right person to resolve your issue.
Recall the scene from “Back To the Future,” when Marty McFly lands back in 1955 and sees a car pull into a Texaco station. Four smartly uniformed attendants rush to pump his gas, check his oil, clean his windshield, and refill his tires. When shown in theaters, audiences regularly guffawed at the scene, because even by 1985, such service was already a distant memory.
The customer these days, hamstrung by lack of competition among product and service providers, and by binding arbitration clauses in every contract from your credit cards to the software you use, has become an afterthought at best, a pigeon to be fleeced at worst.
All in the name of maximizing corporate profit.
In the aftermath of the United incident, airlines rushed to retool their policies regarding boarding, bumping, and compensation. But notice that the flurry of revisions were confined solely to that one area. Have any of them announced that they’ll reconfigure their seats to accommodate anyone larger than a child? Or that they’ll reintroduce actual meal service? Or even stop charging their passengers for pillows and blankets?
Don’t kid yourself. These new policies were put in place only partly to mollify furious flyers. They were also a preemptive strike against the reintroduction of any kind of government regulation. Which might cut into their huge profits. (As an aside, United’s CEO Oscar Munoz, is expected to receive $14 million in pay this year.)
This is why you need someone like Billshark on your side. While we may not be able to finagle room for your knees on your next flight, we can help you fight the good fight against the corporations who are out to extract every extra dollar from you that they can get away with. We know their tricks, and we can help you keep every cent possible in your own pocket.
