\GoBillsInDallas/ Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 I don't have it now, but I'm buying a new car that has the equipment included. So basically, it's $21 per month and it gets automatically charged to your credit card? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo_Gal Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 (edited) No 6 months or a year free to see if you like it? We've updated online, and in the vehicle on the fly. Last I looked (2 weeks ago) we had three different package choices. We pay per year. We have had it end as they have not auto-renewed for us, and that is when the renewal in the vehicle on the fly has happened.

They probably can get you a trial promotion for 3-6 months, especially if it's a new car. Edited April 19, 2018 by Lurker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mead107 Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 I do have to call and get the NFL stations on in the truck. I had to do that with the car. Have WiFi in the truck. Unlimited for $20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Jack Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 As noted earlier in thread, you should get at least a 3 month trial period. You may need to give a credit card for the trial, so either use a Visa gift card with no money on it, or remember to cancel if you don't like it. Full disclosure - Sirius subscriber since Christmas 2002. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
707BillsFan Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 I've had it since it's inception, can't listen to radio in the car w/o it. My new car came w/ 6 mos free (Subaru), no CC needed for the trial period, but I had to let them know I was already a subscriber and was credited the 6 mos to my account. I believe we have the yearly plan too, saves a small amount of coin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gray Beard Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 I had it for three months when I got a new car a year ago. I didn’t use it enough to justify paying to keep it going. I still get email a few times a week from them telling me about a great offer. The offer involves a low introductory rate followed by automatic renewal at full price unless I remember to call and cancel. I don’t want to go down that path.

Steptide Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 First 3 months will be free. Then they'll call and harass you to subscribe. They say it's 15 dollars a month, but they always give you 6 months for 25 dollars. I had it for about a year and canceled. It's good, but the music channels tend to play the same stuff over and over and it gets boring. I did very much enjoy the comedy channels. I've been thinking about subscribing again for the comedy channels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 Yeah, do what steptide says. And the day before renewing at the full rate, say you want the same deal (5 for $25 is what I get) or you'll cancel. Always works. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I was even told at the dealer not to just renew it, but to wait til they call you about renewing and tell them your not sure and would need to think about it. Play it out a bit and you will get it much cheaper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledInIllinois Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 (edited) I thought 6 month's were free. That was on my Toyota. On my BMW it was a year. I know it was more than 3 months, 3 months sounds low. Don't have to piss or get off the till then... Or at least a month before. $21/month sounds high. I got two radios and two cars, the BMW is yearly and separate. First bill is like 30 something (w/internet radio too). The yearly is like a 100 and a half or something?? I gotta look, that renews in July. 2 hours ago, teef said: i have a subscription now, and just got 6 months free in my new car. does anyone know how this works? do i just contact sirius and they comp me 6 months? My is tacked to one account. But I pay one yearly. Not sure how that happened, but it seems I am not geeting screwed. Monthly bill is less and I just yearly the BMW. Bastages... I did get year free, but some they are working me over. BTW... I'd rather deal with the DMV than deal with Sirius customer support. As long as radios are getting signals, I am happy. I have been a Sirius subscriber since 2003, the Drew Bledsoe days... Had it in all my cars built in since 2006.

Any deal is about what you’re willing to accept or walk away from. I’m willing to pay just five dollars a month for the service. If they lose me, that’s five dollars a month they’re still not getting. And if I don’t have it, it doesn’t really affect my life. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
