  Speaker 3: You've been waiting for it, and it's finally here. Today's
• 0:20
  Speaker 3: phone tap. And you know, for years many people who've
• 0:24
  Speaker 3: stuck with the cable companies have found that they can
• 0:26
  Speaker 3: get a lower price by haggling with the customer service
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: person over the phone.
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna say I'm gonna quit if you give me
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: less money.
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: Everyone does that, that's the tactic. In fact, the guy
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: we talk with today is bragged to his girlfriend that
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: he's been doing this for years without fail. Well, the
• 0:43
  Speaker 3: cable company is about to turn the tables on him
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: because our own Jose Bolanos poses as a customer service

• 0:54
  Speaker 3: get him to pay more. What you find out how

• 1:01
  Speaker 2: Now it's another third tap Mornings on the twenties. Hello, Hi,
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: this is Miles from Cable customer service. Is this Matthewer?
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Hey, hey Matt.
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: We received your request that you'd like to cancel your service,
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: and I was hoping to speak to you about that.
• 1:21
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's right, Okay, I like cancel.
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: Before we do that, though, may I ask why specifically?
• 1:28
  Speaker 4: Well, to be honest with you, you guys are pretty expensive,
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: and I watched everything like on Netflix and Hulu. I
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: don't even really use cable that much.
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: I can see what you mean. I do see here
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: that you're currently paying one hundred and twenty dollars a month.
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: Is that correct?
• 1:41
  Speaker 4: Yeah? And that's like so expensive. I can't afford that.
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: Sure? Can I get one hundred and ten a month?
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: Hundred dollars? Maybe a hundred dollars a month?
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: Maybe do it here?
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: Ninety five a month, going once, going twice and sold
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: to the man on the phone, ninety five dollars.
• 1:54
  Speaker 4: Wait a minute, what I don't sorry? What I don't
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: get we? What did you just ample up name? Oh auction?
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: No.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: Well, in our customer feedback surveys, we've seen a lot
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: of people saying they just get annoyed by having these
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: conversations in general. So I thought that I would make
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: them a little more fun by doing it in an
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: auctioneer voice. So anyway, ninety five, we're good on that price? Final,
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: I said, final?
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: No, I sent in an email that can't sell well,
• 2:22
  Speaker 4: I don't, look, I don't understand what you're trying to do.
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: Let me give you a little insider secret here. Okay, Okay,
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: I technically can't say it to you because this call
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: is being recorded. Okay, but if you say a certain price,
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: then maybe we can get to that price and I
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: can agree with you on it.
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: Oh you know what I mean? Okay, Okay, so let's
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: start to bidding. How about forty bucks? What's so funny?
• 2:56
  Speaker 4: An action?
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: That was? Really? Are you a comedian?
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: What I mean?
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: No?
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: Hold on, look look look remember it's being recorded, so
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: if you say things faster, right, they may not catch
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: the numbers. So why don't you try it in that
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: auctioneer style that I was doing, and then we can
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: go from there.
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: Okay, So I okay, here's the deal. I really do
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: want the price to be lowered. That's like was really
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: the reason of my email was not to cancel, but
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: like to get it lower because a lot of people
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: do that.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: If you yeah, we get it yeah, everyone thinks they
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: know the cable company more than we get it. Look,
