How Does Experian BillFixer™ Work?
Access to Experian BillFixer is a feature of eligible paid Experian memberships that negotiates your bills for you to find savings. Here's how bill negotiation works:
- Sign in to your Experian account. Go to the "Money" screen in the navigation menu and find the "Recurring" payments section.
- Connect your bank or credit card accounts that you use to pay your bills. We will identify your recurring payments that are eligible for negotiation, as well as subscriptions that can be cancelled.
- Submit your bills. Our secure process uses encryption to make sure your personal information is as safe as possible. Simply download a copy of your bill or snap a photo of it and upload it to BillFixer using the "Upload bill" screen.
- Let us negotiate for you. Our expert negotiators can save you hours on the phone. We are experienced in looking for promotional rates, customer loyalty discounts, special packages and additional credits to bring your bills down. With your permission, we can negotiate using your name, which tends to get the best results.
- Receive your results. Once negotiation is complete, which typically takes three to seven business days, you'll receive an email announcing your monthly or annual savings. (If you already have the lowest possible price, we'll let you know that, too.)
- Enjoy your savings. You keep 100% of your negotiated savings. You can also opt in to automatic renegotiation when the terms of your current rate are expiring, helping you save on an ongoing basis.
BillFixer never downgrades the services you receive without your permission. You keep the same level of service you had before. If there are contracts or feature cancellations that offer a better deal, BillFixer can contact you before any changes are made to your account. To streamline the process further, you can pre-consent to contracts.

How Much Does Experian BillFixer Cost?
BillFixer is a free benefit included with eligible paid Experian memberships, and you keep 100% of any savings that BillFixer's expert negotiators obtain for you. You can try BillFixer for free when you enroll in a seven-day trial of an Experian premium membership.
How Long Does Bill Negotiation Take?
Negotiating your bills typically takes three to seven business days. When negotiation is complete, you'll receive an email with your monthly or annual savings. In some cases, we'll let you know that you already have the best available rate.
How long do the savings last? As long as you maintain an eligible paid Experian membership, BillFixer negotiates your bills on an ongoing basis. Renegotiations typically occur once a year, but BillFixer also watches for new deals and lets you know when new savings are available or it's time to renegotiate. You can also enable AutoFix to have BillFixer automatically renegotiate deals that are expiring.
Should You Use Experian BillFixer?
There's no downside to trying Experian BillFixer, since it's a free benefit included with eligible paid memberships, and you keep 100% of any savings we negotiate.
Instead of searching for new deals and offers from your providers, then spending hours communicating with customer service, you can hand the task off to BillFixer and simply enjoy the savings. Plus, we'll keep looking for new deals and opportunities to save so you don't have to. We can even renegotiate expiring deals so you don't have to keep track of when contracts end.
