In unrelated news, music piracy is on the rise.

PS. I am sorry that my wording of this rubbed so many people the wrong way. This is a truly a nasty update of terms and agreements, and it’s going to hurt a lot of people financially.

If it’s all fine with you stay in. But if it’s not you have a little over 30 days to get out.

    XMSirius just changed their terms and subscriptions are no longer cancelable or refundable starting 3/15/24, even if you sell your vehicle and have no way to use the account.

    That’s absurd and untrue. They’re decreasing when you can get a prorated refund. So (aside from a initial window) when you cancel midterm you don’t get money back. That’s not great but that’s a far cry from removing the ability to cancel a subscription.

    They’re already being sued for their cancelation process being an utter pain in the ass, removing the ability to cancel would be tossed out immediately.

      “Selling, losing, trading in your vehicle or not using the Service (or any part thereof) does not cancel your Subscription. You can transfer your Service to another vehicle. If you don’t have another vehicle, you can continue listening through the Streaming Service. No refunds or credits will be given if you don’t have an activated vehicle on your Plan or if you don’t use the Service.”

      It’s word for word what they said in the mailing. I already threw it out so believe what you want. I really don’t give a s***.

        Are you getting this from some mail flyer or something?
