Billshark does one job: it calls your providers and asks for a lower rate. You upload a bill, the team negotiates, and you pay a one-time fee of 40% of what it saved, or nothing if it saved nothing. The company says it succeeds 90% of the time and averages $450 per successful negotiation, which would mean a $180 fee and $270 kept. Its blog adds that the fee is capped at 24 months of savings and that a six-month payment plan costs a one-time $9 setup fee. Eligible bills include internet, wireless, pay TV, satellite radio and home security. Two details set it apart from rivals: you can start without handing over provider passwords, and Billshark tracks when your new rate expires and restarts negotiations so the bill does not jump back. Updates arrive by SMS and email. It also runs a business billing service. The trade-off is price: WisePal takes 35%, and Billshark offers nothing beyond negotiation.
