You are signed into my Xfinity account in Chrome. Negotiate the lowest monthly price for the same internet, cable TV and family cell service I have now. Prefer retention offers over cutting features. Summarize every concession and the new annual total before I accept anything.

Before you start, ask me 1–3 short questions about the details below and wait for my answers. Once I've answered, confirm the plan in one line and run the whole task start to finish. Goal: Negotiate a lower Xfinity bill without cutting the services I need. Questions to ask me first: - Which services must stay (internet speed, TV, lines)? - Current monthly total and promo end date? - Any competitor quotes I can cite? Inputs (fill in or confirm): - Account signed in: [XFINITY TAB] - Must-keep services: [LIST] - Current bill: [MONTHLY $] - Competitor quotes: [OPTIONAL] Rules: - Aim for retention pricing before service cuts. - Track what share of savings comes from real cuts vs rate fixes. - Never change payment methods or cancel without my OK. - Hand control back if identity checks or CAPTCHAs appear. Checkpoint: After the first offer, pause and show the dollar impact before pushing further. If you get stuck: If chat disconnects, reopen and resume from the last written offer. Verify before you finish: New monthly and annual totals are stated, with % from service cuts called out. Output: Negotiation log plus final offer numbers for my acceptance. Done when: I can accept or reject the offer myself.

Outcome
Ofer Ronen gave Claude Cowork the challenge of lowering an Xfinity bill for internet, cable TV and family cell service without changing service level, using the Claude Chrome plugin on a signed-in Xfinity tab. Over about 45 minutes the agent negotiated in chat support with a human agent and cut the bill by $3,200 a year—almost half—with only 17% of the savings from reducing service. Ronen mostly watched; credit for the idea goes to Kyle Vamvouris.
