Helping a parent with their cable, internet, or phone bill?

You don't have to sort it out alone. A real person reviews the bill and tells you how much can be saved - at no cost.

Why we exist

"When my stepfather passed away, I sat down with my mother to go through her bills. What I found shocked me - she was paying over $200 a month for cable channels she never watched, internet speeds she didn't need, and a phone plan that made no sense. She had no idea. And she had no one to help her sort it out. That's why I started Household Advocate."

Here's how it works when you're helping someone else:

  1. Fill out the short form for them. Choose "I'm filling this out for a parent, family member, or friend."

  2. Add a photo or screenshot of the bill if you can get to it. Feel free to black out the account number. No bill handy? Skip it and we'll follow up.

  3. A real person reviews everything and tells you how much can be saved within three business days.

What to expect

  • We build around what they actually watch - their news, their teams, their favorite shows.

  • Nobody takes over the account. You and your parent stay in control the whole time.

  • Every recommendation comes with step-by-step instructions in plain English, and hands-on help is available if you want it.

  • Everything is handled by email and text, so it works wherever you and your parent live.

The cost:

The review is free. If we find less than $20 a month in savings, you owe nothing. If we find more, the full step-by-step plan is a one-time flat fee of $79, $129 or $179 depending on the savings. You'll know the savings number before you decide.
