SiriusXM Megathread

[Alex]

My guess is that the "lifetime" was for the lifetime of the Jetta, not for your lifetime. Do you have the Terms and Conditions for the Lifetime agreement?

I don't have the Terms and Conditions and I thought they were originally meaning it was tied to a car, but this is the third time that I have transferred the Lifetime subscription, so I don't think being tied to a car is the case. I have heard other cases were people transfer their subscriptions, but in each case it was to from a Satellite subscription to another Satellite subscription. There were also cases where people were selling their lifetime subscriptions on eBay. And another person I saw in a forum, where they no longer had the vehicle, they were able to transfer it to another vehicle, since the subscription was still active on their account (it's lifetime). Sirius XM has no way of knowing that the vehicle is no longer owned by a person or possibly salvaged.

I was surprised about being able to transfer the lifetime subscription too, until the sales rep pointed out that canceling my Model 3 lifetime subscription was not a good deal, and that for $35 I could have it replace my current Lucid Satellite radio subscription. I'm using a XM Commander unit for satellite, primarily to get reception in mountainous areas that I travel – otherwise, I use the build in Radio app.

Problem is, our car does not have a satellite radio. It’s via the streaming service, which doesn’t seem to be covered under that settlement verbiage.

I think you may be able to "snag" this if you don't have a subscription yet or yours has expired. I tried (in vain) to add this to my existing subscriptions, but could not.

someone in the comments mentioned cancelling existing plan and signing up again for the offer without an issue when a similar offer came up in the past. but as usual, YMMV

Just tried this offer. I am currently not a active subscription since .I did not renew after the trial.

However, Sirius is saying "Sorry, your radio is not eligible for that offer. But, we found another great offer for you!!!"

So they offered me $5/month but only for 12 months instead. That is the same offer that they have been sending me thru mail and emails.

SO no go on this $3/month for 3 years ...which is an awesome deal.

Just saw the comments section on the doctorofcredit website....Apparently, this $3/month for 36months offer is only for vehicles made 2015 for earlier. So no go for our Lucids :-(

Just call them in month 10 or 11 and say that you want to cancel. They will offer different deals but eventually give you $5/month again.

interesting, that's a good detail to know. those comments weren't available when i looked through the thread. hopefully they pin it or add it to the post cuz that's a major disclaimer

but apparently, someone managed to get an even better deal, still $3/month, but for 5 years instead of 3. here's the post

https://www.reddit.com/r/siriusxm/comments/t9kcnf/lowest_rate_for_service_now

but at this point, it may be too much work for too little payoff. what's an extra $2/month

I already have a SXM login however the "login" screen is greyed out on the Air. What am I doing wrong?
For now I'm just playing via CarPlay

You can’t log in unfortunately. It needs to be activated like it would be for a physical SXM tuner
