Money, Bills & Benefits

Cancel and refund subscriptions by searching email and calling

Grok Bot read email across two accounts, logged into systems, phoned providers and sent emails, cancelling and refunding two long-pending subscriptions in about ten minutes.

What they did

The author had tried for months to cancel two subscriptions, and Claude got close but stalled on the last step. He gave the same task to Grok Bot on his personal devices. It read years of email across two accounts, logged into systems, phoned a couple of providers using a bot that places calls from his number, and sent a few emails.

How it went

About ten minutes later both subscriptions were cancelled and refunded. The author doesn't give the refund amounts.

Worth knowing

He gave the agent access to all his personal data and calls that risky. Logins and 2FA still needed him at least once, and he says enterprise use is a different risk question.
