Default xm pricing

starting to consider having satellite radio on my two cars and my bike
I recall pricing all over the board and renewal getting jammed down our throats
would we expect a discount for multiple radios ?
what is a good deal for subscription for 3 vehicles to XM radio?

They are constantly throwing offers out there for 5 months for $20.00 ( introductory ). It requires a credit card to activate. REMEMBER that if you don't cancel before the last day of the offer they'll renew you automatically at the full price.

I've been a subscriber for so long I don't know what current prices are, but there is a multi radio discount. I've had a lifetime subscription for 9 years, and #2,3,4 are $6.95/mo each. One of those is my phone subscription. Auto renew, price hasn't changed in years, and I don't get kicked around by them. I'm happy with it.

We pay full price for our two subscriptions - neither of us accept reduced payments on our hourly rates whatsoever.

Maybe this came out wrong ... I was inferring that he could try it out using one of their offers. I have a subscription on my 2012 Silverado and am happy with it :>)

Just looked into a lifetime subscription but decided against it when I discovered that it's not transferable from one vehicle to another. Not practical when I trade every 2-3 years and I don't have a portable or dock & play unit.
And even it it was allowable, $75 per transfer is ridiculous.

Just like a dish...I don't watch/listen to everything they offer and hate paying for the "whole package" but I do. And I have both XM and Dish.

XM has different packages listed on their website. It's worth checking out.

I have been a subscriber to XM for quite a while. I have it in my truck and car. I get it shut off for 5 or 6 months when I park my car for the winter. They have been in my experience good to deal with and they do have some good offers available.

I used to have xm, but I grew tired of it. seemed like the same programming over and over and over.... plus with commercials added in (it isn't length, it's girth.. wtf?) it really wasn't worth renewing any more.

I did find that if you cancel your auto renew via credit card before autorenewal, they will invoice you. and, if you call them and tell them you are thinking of cancelling, they will offer you an incentive to stay. I was paying $30 every 6 months for a couple of years.

but be careful, even if you do quit, they will keep hounding you forever.
