The problem

Phone company bills are notoriously inaccurate.

Phone billing errors add up. Add them to back to your budget. Significant savings and refunds are often overlooked in your phone company bills — wireless, wireline, internet access, and data network services.

A CONTINGENCY audit can be very effective in finding refunds and savings you didn’t know about. Refunds return money directly to your budget to help fund critical projects.

What do the experts say? 

The Gartner Group says: Organizations which are not auditing their phone bills on a regular basis are forfeiting an extra 10% or more of their network services spend to the Phone Companies. Historical audits recover overpayments, identify stranded assets and increase budget efficiency.

Everyone is stretched.

During these uncertain economic times, all organizations — large and small — are carefully watching how every dollar is spent. Times have been tough. Information Technology budgets are severely constrained. There are many competing critical priorities and not enough resources. The result: trying to do “more with less”, which can often feel impossible.

If you find errors, you must dispute within 6 months – or you lose your rights.

What we do

We help organizations like yours come in under budget by correcting phone bill errors and negotiating for refunds for past overpayments.

We do this by thoroughly reviewing the phone bills you are currently paying then putting our expertise in telecom expense management to work for you.

We work on contingency – you owe nothing unless we bring you savings/refunds.

Our process makes it easy for you: we review your current invoices, identify billing errors and overpayments, ensure accurate billing going forward, and obtain refunds for the money you paid in error.

billing dispute resolution

Review. We start by collecting your phone bills: all voice, data, internet access and wireless carrier invoices and contracts. We work offsite and online to minimize disruption to your regular business operations. We thoroughly analyze each invoice down to the individual billing element “USOC” level. We deep dive into the intricacies of your carrier contracts.

Reduce. We initiate investigations of our findings with your carriers, and file billing disputes in the prescribed way that preserves your rights. We manage the process step by step through to resolution. We take the necessary steps to ensure that you don’t continue to pay in error. Then we verify correction by reviewing subsequent invoices, and we catch errors as they occur.

Refund. We put our negotiation skills and tenacity to work to make sure you receive the maximum refund to which you are entitled.

Overcharge Recovery Group recovered more than $300,000 a year back into my operational budget. After our teams worked to find reductions internally, ORG found savings where we did not have the knowledge, expertise, or time. They found incorrectly billed taxes, unnecessary fees, and missed discounts on our hospital telecommunication bills. The retroactive credits and ongoing savings allow us to invest in other IT initiatives making our organization more effective in providing patient care and serving our mission of Caring, Health, Teaching, Serving All. ORG was easy to work with and I highly recommend them!”
