I am no longer Sirius

[Square Wheels]

I just cancelled.  Darn, they make it hard.  Was set up for autorenew.  Got the notice in the mail.  Went to their site to cancel the autorenew, could not.  Chatted with someone who wanted lots of info, then said I needed to call.  Said no, they needed to do it over the chat, I already wasted enough time.  The supervisor butt in and said I can cancel today (and get a small refund) or wait until the subscription runs out.  I said cancel today.

Now I have to listen to myself sing in the car.

I gave you the sad reaction not because of the problems with Sirius. Please consider renewing Sirius or at least installing an 8-track tape player.

I bought a new BMW, what are the odds this does not have an 8-track tape player.  It also has a Betamax entertainment system for the rear seat passengers.

I ran into this same thing when my truck got totalled.  Explained I was in a loaner vehicle, no sirius, cancel it.  all kinds of run around.  Finally got it done, but I talked to half of Mumbai.

That new car is a convertible, make sure you wear your helmet.

I had XM for 3 months when I bought my Trailblazer. It was nice, but not worth it IMO.

I told them this was terrible customer service, there are many other options, and I may not renew when my free trial runs out.  Service suddenly got better.

That is awesome, I will have my manservant order me one.

It is very expensive.  I get it free for a year, then I may not renew.

Just goes to show that the last good BMW was the 2002. I bet they came with 8-tracks and maybe even FM radios.

Mine was made in 2020.  That's not possible.  Who knows what it will have.

Probably Sirius with a free 6 or 12 month subscription.

I have it in my car.  I don’t have auto renew and basically renegotiate my contract each year.

Each year the price goes up, each year I threaten to cancel and each year I get the same service for the same price.
