XM Radio 3-Month Free Trial Extension

MisterF80M3 · 02-12-2019, 12:04 AM

My XM radio 1 year trial ended last month. I didn't want to pay $20.99/month for their service so I looked around their website and they were offering 3-month free trial.

All they need is your VIN, name, email, and address. No credit card necessary.

Pretty excited to get an additional 3-month.

I never pay full price for XM. Just call in when your trial expires and ask to cancel your service. They will lower the price automatically. Keep refusing until it's something like $6 for the next 3-6 months or something. That will expire too, just set a reminder to cancel and they will do the same thing: some cheap lowball rate. Rise repeat. Been doing this for years.

Just don't give them a phone number that you don't want them spamming all day every day like they do with me even though I've yelled at them to stop calling me

For BMW this hasn't been an issue, but...
I got my wife a new Volvo XC90 last summer.
Gave Volvo on call my phone number to enable the remote start etc app.
Well... now I get Sirius spam all the time on my cell. Volvo was kind enough to forward the number to them.
