Hidden-Fee Auditor

🔵 Stable🕐 updated 2026-08-05 🔷 SkillSpec L3 pm-money

Scan a bill, contract, or quote for junk and hidden fees — the padding buried in the fine print — and get them questioned or removed. Use when asked to check this bill for hidden fees, are these charges legit, what am I actually paying for, or review this quote for junk fees. Produces a line-by-line read flagging suspicious/vague/padded charges, which are commonly negotiable or bogus, the questions to ask and script to dispute them, and an estimate of what you could save — across bills like telecom, hotels, cars, banking, and services.

🗣 Say this to your agent

“Check my phone bill for hidden fees.”“The hotel added a resort fee and a bunch of charges — are these legit?”“Review this car-purchase quote for junk fees before I sign.”“What are all these fees on my bill actually for?”“My internet bill has charges I don't recognize — what can I dispute?”

What to give it

The document — the bill, quote, or contract (paste the line items/charges)
The type — telecom, hotel, car purchase/rental, bank, utility, event tickets, services
Stage — already billed, or a quote before you commit
Context — what you expected to pay / were quoted
Goal — understand the charges, dispute them, or negotiate before signing

✅ The bar it holds itself to

Every skill in this library self-verifies — these are this skill's own quality checks, straight from its definition.

Every charge is classified (legit / questionable / junk)
Flags the common padding fees specifically
Distinguishes real taxes from invented "fees"
Gives concrete questions and a dispute/negotiate script
Estimates what's contestable
For quotes, advises challenging before signing

⚠️ What it refuses to do

**Assuming every line is mandatory** and paying without question.
**Confusing invented fees with real taxes.**
**Vague "this seems high"** with no specific line flagged.
**Only auditing after paying** when it's a quote you could still negotiate.
**Overpromising** that everything is removable.
