Hiatus: Bill and Money Manager for Positive User Reviews

✓ Some hassles, but ultimately saved moneyOverall, I recommend this app, but make sure to double check your plans with your providers a few days after negotiations conclude. I caught 2 errors: 1. The reported savings on my cable bill came back wrong, it vastly overestimated my savings. Customer service at Hiatus cleared this up right away. Ended up saving a solid $10 a month. 2. My cell phone plan got changed to a more expensive plan. Hiatus claims that this was a mistake on my provider’s end. I believe them. After sending some screen grabs to Hiatus, this was cleared up as well. Unfortunately, I did not get any savings here. I want to point out that customer service is done via a chat box. You aren’t going to get resolutions immediately, but they do follow up with you within a reasonable amount of time (that day/next day). It also looks like one rep gets assigned to your case, not a different person every time. In that regard, it’s way better than a 1800 support line where you have to re-explain yourself over and over. My rep was very good. She gave clear and thorough explanations..Mick DullenVersion: 2.6.0

✓ Thoroughly impressedI was optimistic Hiatus would negotiate some savings for my Uverse bill, and they did, saving me $360 for the year (of which Hiatus will keep 50% as payment). When my Verizon bill was flagged for being too high, I thought it was unlikely they would actually get me a discount, as I already have a generous corporate discount on my account. They proved me wrong! $144 in full year savings! Keeping half of the savings for the first year can feel steep, but considering the fact I didn't even think there was savings to be had with my Verizon bill and I didn't have to deal with Uverse customer service at all, I am all good with their 50% share. They earned it. 😊.Frankiestein22Version: 2.5.4

✓ Great service saved me $$$I downloaded the app and requested a negotiation to lower my cell phone bill. Then I completely forgot about it. I get a text this morning asking if I’d like to save money on my cell phone bill. I said of course! Well Hiatus negotiated a credit and a significant cut in my phone costs. They saved me $70 or so dollars a month and the credit I received is going to mostly cover the next bill! This is the important part I learned today. The first negotiation is free. The fee is $7 to $10 a month depending on the plan you choose. This cell phone bill was my first negotiation request. I keep the entire credit. Hiatus will receive 50% of all future savings from successful negations. If this cell phone bill negotiation hadn’t been my first free negotiation and Hiatus had taken 50% of my savings I would still have come out ahead because my future bills have been so drastically reduced. Make sure what you are going to pay a bill negotiator makes sense for your situation. Your paying someone to do the talking to save you money. If someone offered to do that for free I would be suspicious. The app. It’s useful, uncomplicated, shows me banking activity at a glance but not in great detail. The categories don’t always make sense for my spending but the numbers are correct so I’m happy. Over all very satisfied with the service even if the fee structure isn’t as clear as it could be..HelpingHoundVersion: 3.8.2

✓ Customer service is the worst-updateAfter reading that they randomly charge you, I told them to stop negotiating for me and cancel it all, and they didn’t and WILL NOT respond to me! I’ve read other reviews and it appears that the savings charges and charges from your bill do not line up and will go for 12 months, even if the savings negotiated was for less than that time frame. I’m NOT OKAY with paying with the savings is over or on any date that does not correspond with my bills! They should be more clear about that! UPDATE They finally responded and cancelled for me, but they had already negotiated. They said that they will just let me keep the six months of savings without charging me for them. We’ll see how it goes...I definitely cannot afford the random charges others have complained of or the charges past the savings date..WhiterinVersion: 2.4.5

✓ It’s true! They really do save you money!!I found out about Hiatus through an ad and was a bit skeptical about their service. I read the reviews on here and decided to give them a chance. Right away the first thing that I was alerted on was my AT&T bill, and I thought I was already getting a great deal. Well, I gave them permission to negotiate with AT&T my bill with the stipulation that my service not be affected to lower my bill... Well, less than one hour later they delivered! I was already getting a great deal, Unlimited service, early upgrades, free unlimited personal hotspot, etc... aaaaand they still found a way to lower my bill an extra $120 a year! Wam 💥 Bam 💥❗️Thank you Ma’am! It’s quick, it’s easy but, most importantly it works!.PissingMeOffVersion: 2.5.3

✓ I was skeptical but...My job requires that I have an unlimited internet data package, and my AT&T bill had gotten up to $175 a month. I have been searching for a way to lower it, as it was getting quite unmanageable. I learned about Hiatus through an ad on Instagram and, even though I didn’t believe it would really help, I gave it a try. In addition to pointing out a few iTunes Store subscriptions I forgot I was paying for, the app informed me that my phone bill was much higher than it probably should be. It asked if I would like the Hiatus team to negotiate with AT&T (on the condition that if they were able to save me money, they would receive half of the savings for the first year only) to try and lower my bill. I consented. A day or two later, I was notified that they had found $50 worth of internet data belonging to my iPad that I was never using and they asked if they could change the plan for the iPad from unlimited to 1GB, which is about how much I have been using each month (my phone package would stay the same), and I accepted. They saved me $600 a year. I still didn’t really believe it was true until I called to pay my past due AT&T bill and instead of the balance being $180 ($175 plus a late fee), it was $122. WHAT?! They really did negotiate with AT&T and it happened so fast that the bill, which was already past due, reflected the savings! I’m amazed and I am so thankful I found Hiatus! Thank you!!.EricaRussellVersion: 2.4.7

✓ What an App!While reading the Pennyhoarder blog, they mentioned the benefit of downloading the Hiatus app to save money. I reluctantly downloaded it and was cautious when asked to input all my current bills and banking info. Within 2 days, Hiatus staff had already analyzed my info and a shared that three bills could be reduced immediately. They clearly listed the annual savings while reminding me of the 50 percent charge due to Hiatus. I gave my approval for the lowering of all the bills and gladly split the savings w/ Hiatus. I wish I’d had this app sooner as I’m sure I’ve overpaid for cellphone, cable and goods and services for years. Get this app and start saving today! By the way, the staff contacting me via text or email are always professional, precise and are willing to answer any questions..Big Daddy68!Version: 3.4.2

✓ Works Exactly As StatedFirst, yes, negotiating your various bills and subscription rates down is something really anyone can/could do for oneself & all the personal financial advice people will tell you to do so. But it is somewhat easier said than done and I really hate trying to navigate customer service phone bank hell. I also work long hours, at night, and am unable to make personal calls at work so finding time to do this for myself is also a pain. So anyhow, I downloaded the app right before I went to sleep and within a few hours I woke up to 3 notifications that they’d found savings of just under $1000 for me over the course of a year. So, yeah, super!! Ummm, yes, they make money by charging you 50% of the amount saved - it’s disclosed right there in black & white, plain English, so I don’t know how people are surprised or somehow don’t understand how it works. Of course I do wish it were a smaller percentage cut but I’m still saving a decent amount over time. Also, I’ve verified savings with all 3 accounts (AT&T UVerse, Verizon, SiriusXM). Thanks y’all!.TracileabeeVersion: 2.4.6
