Questions
Is the bill check free?
Yes — checking your bill and seeing whether a saving exists costs nothing, and no card is required.
Is this a subscription?
No. It's a one-off fee, charged once if we find a worthwhile saving. No recurring charges, ever.
What if there's no worthwhile saving?
You pay nothing. BillHelper only ever charges when a genuine saving has been found and is worth unlocking.
Do I have to switch?
No. You decide — BillHelper never switches your plan for you. You contact the retailer, or not, entirely your choice.
What does human verification mean?
After you pay, BillHelper gives the leading option an extra check by a real person before you switch — an added layer of trust, not something that gates seeing your results or retailer links.
Is my bill private?
Yes — it's used only to check your plan and is never sold. See our Privacy Policy.
