More XM Radio fun
Got home from work today. Opened the mail and found a bill form XM radio. Problem is, I suspended the service last November to be reactivated in April. I had 6 months left on the service so the new bill should not be due until the first week of October. I call their number and get Nicki (yah right) on the line. She just can't comprehend what I am trying to communicate to her. It took some time and a several requests to speak to a manager and being put on hold for several minutes before they finally agreed that I was correct on the date the service should extend to. I document every conversation I have with anyone I get service from. I had names, dates and times of the conversation when I had the service suspended in November. These are the types of situations that give them such a bad reputation for their service. How can you just ignore your agreements with your customers and try to screw them by billing them for something already paid for?

Just an absolutely horrible company. I fired them several years ago. I won't deal with these kind of businesses. Too many other good options (unless you're all about Howard Stearn).

Are you kidding???? Can we all get in touch with you??? The company got me for more than $120.00 when they continuously billed me month after month after cancelling. And like OP says, if you want to upgrade or join, you speak to someone within 2 minutes and speak to someone pleasant and understands you. If you try to suspend or cancel different story, I had 5 calls, all at over 2 hours of wait time, getting transferred to numerous people in various countries. Oh, and then after one of the calls, and speaking to 7 different people with lower and lower rates, a guy comes on and offers me a plan for $6.00 a month. OMG. I know it's a business, but wouldn't it have been nice to have this conversation 2 hours ago... Sorry for venting on your thread.

Hello XM, you paying attention here? Your reputation is horrible, it appears you have never done anything to improve it! I purchased my 2012 GS in December 2011, immediately put into winter storage, called about suspending my free 6 months, was told I could not do this. Guess why nobody signs back up?

LOL…I looked at all of SXM Help’s posts and they’re all “we apologize”, “sorry for your bad experience”, etc. If this individual is legit (which I doubt that SXM is monitoring CorvetteForum), I feel sorry for ‘em because there’s going to be A LOT of APOLOGIZING.
I’ve gone from 4 active XM subscriptions a few years ago, to zero today…got tired of dealing with this crappy company. I like their product, can’t deal with their business practices though.
There are so many “alternatives” to SXM available in the newer vehicles today.

So you are saying you are not interested in service
Thankfully I have never had those kind of problems with them. I guess that makes me a minority around here.

Just a couple of months ago, they started sending letters to my house but addressed to a different name. The person named on the letters has never lived here, we are the original builders of the house done 31 years ago.
The letters are about a 2006 Corvette, which I sold in the Summer of 2009 and cancelled the service. Now, 4 years later, they are suddenly sending letters about that car but the wrong name.
In our 2009, we installed a PAL and Ipod with 500+ of our favorite songs. No more poor audio quality, no more blabbering DJ's, and no more criminally insane billing system.
Run Forrest, run!

How bout providing us YOUR phone number instead of this ridiculous e-mail stuff, who knows, maybe you can get some GOOD feedback and even become a Supporting Vendor of the Forum, but the company has a long long long way to go. Oh and Forest, make sure there is no credit card information given to them, you will pay, and pay and pay... oh, and I'm not bitter

I am curious as to why XM has a SiriusXM Digital Care Team on the forum. Is it supposed to make those of us who despise XM and their business practices feel all warm and fuzzy?
I read an article in Forbes Magazine that said only 1/2 the cars that have XM radios installed have the service. Many of those are on the free trial period. We just let it run out on our GMC truck.
