![]() ![]() Every time a SiriusXM post comes up I'm conflicted. I like the service, but a couple of years ago they reneged on a promotion (free premium online streaming if you extend your service) which began the worst customer service experience of my life. The scripted stonewalling was so sleazy I couldn't believe that some suit somewhere thought it was a good idea to lie in so many ways to customers. When I cancelled the service of course, they were more than happy to give me what I was asking for months earlier (just honor your agreement), but I was done. ![]() Aug 22, 2013. Go to or call 855-882-4271. 6 months of sirius on a reactivated device, the reactivation fee is waived. First post, please be kind. I searched and did not see this. Thanks for choosing SiriusXM. Now that you have a new satellite radio you'll need to activate it. Don't worry, it only takes a couple of minutes. I guess I still am. ![]() My wife and I just bought a used 2012 Town & Country. It has Sirius XM built in, and we were able to enjoy some of the 2-week free trial they had last month. We're interested in activating a subscription, but I'm told by friends that Sirius is like an island market -- you can haggle on pricing. Does anyone have experience with Sirius, specifically activating a subscription for a new(er) vehicle? I like the idea of the annual pass (which also included internet radio) -- I just don't like the idea of $199. Quote from 1337tard: It's just an idea, but if you have a smartphone with a decent data plan and an auxilary port in your car, you can always use pandora radio. Mercedes-Benz has partnered with Sirius XM Radio radio to offer Sirius satellite radio as a standard feature across a large portion of its vehicle fleet. While satellite radio is a subscription service, the radios often include a free introductory trial of several months. To receive the Sirius satellite signal, the Sirius radio needs to. Jan 22, 2011 This is a tutorial showing how to activate Sirius satellite radio in a 2009-current Maserati GranTurismo coupe. ![]() It's free besides advertisements which you can pay $36 a year to get rid of. There rarely is an advertisement, maybe one every 5 songs. You can also look up your favorite artists and find similar songs to them if your in the mood for a certain genre. I personally never turned on sirius after the first day of a trial, i always use pandora. Thanks for the idea. It does have an aux port, but I'd be concerned about data use on my phone doing something like that (I don't have unlimited data). I've been reading on some sites that you can just called Sirius and ask for a deal and they usually have one to offer. I might try that. In the meantime, if anyone else has any suggestions, I'm all ears! $199 is just the base price.you have to add in the taxes and music royalty fees! I have 2 Sirius radios (my wife pays those and never remembers to cancel). I have XM in my car and have never paid full price. I'm usually honest with them - I have 3 cars and 2 portable radios with Sirius. Why would I pay for XM in one of the cars when I can just move the radio? Yes, it's a slight hassle to deal with adapters and cables, but not enough to pay full price for a year when I only drive the car half the time. They usually offer me either a 3 month deal or something around 1/2 price for the entire year. I think my last year came out to $100-110 - right around $8-9 per month. Since I already have the radio, I think the service is worth $8-9 per month. Their prices have only gone up - I guess it was $12 per month with free on-line streaming, now it is $14.50 with no on-line (extra $3.50) and now that it is Sirius and XM, they have different packages with different programming. The XM package actually has several commercial radio stations.and I believe all of the talk radio stations have commercials. I thought the whole point of paying for radio was to avoid the commercials? And don't even get me started on the annoying DJ part.yet I still pay for the service, so I guess I'm the sucker! But you are basically correct - just call and ask for a deal. Tell them you caught the end of the free trial and the service is nice, but not sure that it's worth $200 per year. I am on what they are calling promotional rate: 6 months for $25 (ends up being 27.44 after taxes). I got this rate by letting the paid subscription expire. Within one month, there is at least one email a week asking me to 'come back' and sign up at that rate.
