Use a chat agent to push for a lower support quote

An AI agent handled a GoDaddy support chat and secured a cheaper price after the person set the rules and waited for the result.

Done with Custom agent· Intermediate

What they did
The person connected a custom agent through FillApp, a Chrome extension, and asked it to talk with GoDaddy support about getting the price reduced. They told it to return to the conversation every 60 seconds so it could catch incoming messages and continue the back-and-forth without constant supervision. The person mostly left it running while the agent carried the exchange.
How it went
The price ended at $278, which they described as a $70 reduction. They also said the attempt cost about $0.10 in LLM credits. Because the full chat was not posted, it is not possible to tell which parts of the exchange mattered most.
Tips
Build in a pause before any acceptance, checkout step, or payment entry so you can review the offer first. Treat the outcome as situational, since the thread does not show the full negotiation.

Try it yourself with Operator

Open a live support chat with [company] about [product, renewal, or plan] that is priced at [current price]. Ask for a lower offer in a polite, persistent way, and use any safe details that might help, such as [loyalty, timing, or competitor pricing]. Return to the chat about every [60] seconds to read new replies and keep the discussion going until you get a better offer or a clear refusal. Stop before you agree to anything, make a payment, or submit the chat, and show me the latest offer so I can decide whether to continue. Then give me a short summary of the final price and savings.

Fill in the [brackets]. Agents can make mistakes, so review anything before it is sent, paid or deleted.
