We called Verizon customer service on my family's real account, with 3 lines on 5G Do More. An AI assistant answered and checked the Account PIN, "An agent, please" got us a person, and they said switching to Unlimited Welcome would take the bill from $219.08 to $170.58 a month. When our call hit its time limit, the representative called us back. All three recordings, the phone tree, and what to have ready.
Give the Claude Code session you already use a phone. We connected a real account, checked its balance, and asked Claude to call a restaurant during private dining research. Here is the setup, the actual tool sequence, and what the voicemail did and did not answer.
My AI phone assistant moved one of my prescriptions from Amazon Pharmacy to a Walgreens in San Francisco. Here are all three calls, what each pharmacy asked for, and the step Amazon's phone menu said it couldn't do.
A call4me user in Baltimore needed a new primary care doctor and had an out-of-state Blue Cross Blue Shield PPO. Their AI phone assistant called 10 practices. Here's who was taking new patients, who took the plan, how far out the first opening was, a $2,121 surprise, and all 15 recordings.
