here's how to save money on your xm. first, set your billing option to invoice, get rid of the automatic charge on your cc.
next, when your bill comes due, call them up and tell them you want to cancel. at first they'll try to talk you out of it. but if you are adamant, they'll eventually connect you to another department. this department has more authority than the person you just spoke with. they'll offer you a 'special' for 6 months for $25. its a little hassle to go through twice a year, but it's a heck of a lot better than $170 per year.
my wife used to listen to xm all the time when she would commute to work. she no longer works, so xm is an unneeded expense. we cancelled it 6 months ago and still get calls, and letters offering us 6 months for $25.....
I must get an email from them weekly asking me to reconnect my service. I'm guessing they are losing a lot of business to streaming services. It's hard to compete with someone like Pandora when they let you make 100 channels of stuff you'd actually want to listen to.
