XM radio is awesome. I get to listen to games on the road and then listen to yacht rock radio in the summer time at the camp. I unsubscribed from Spotify because listening to the same playlist over and over really gets annoying

Also request to pay with a check. They’ll send you an invoice. That way they don’t just take your money via CC come renewal time.

I have an Outlook reminder set up to go off every Dec 28th. I call and tell them to cancel my service bec I'm not paying $250 or whatever it is for it. Magically...every year...they put me on hold and come back with the $90/annual special. This has been going on for 7 years now.

I've never had this experience. I get it on starting discount (something like $25 for 6 months or $50 for 12), then after the 6 or 12 months run out, it ends service. I let it lapse for a few weeks until they beg me back, tell them I'm only coming back on a discounted rate. I've never paid more than the discounted rate


DirecTV now, those are some frickwads.

Their service and business practices are the absolute worst of any company I’ve ever dealt with. I just cussed some poor girl on the phone for everything she was worth and now I’m feelin bad about it. Sorry fellas, just needed a place to vent my frustrations.



1)cancel
2)wait for 6 mo mailer
3)sign up at discount
4)go 6 months from now in your calander app and put a reminder to cancel SXM
5)enjoy for 6 months
6)cancel
7)repeat

Or do like me and get Amazon music and listen to free podcast.

I dumped them six months ago… Best thing I ever did. Total waste of money considering I can stream/Bluetooth anything I want to listen to through my car.

Jose Magin on Octane/Liquid Metal is pretty cringeworthy too

Cox Business is fricking horrible. Our phones at our business have been down for the last 2 fricking days. We call and call and call on our cellphones and just get put on hold 30 mins to an hour

I hate them too but it's mostly because they are asking me to pay for audio quality that is far inferior to that of free terrestrial radio. And I lose signal when I drive under a tree.

I still don't understand why Lithium has DJs. It's fricking past tense rock wtf do you need to talk about

Also, I see red anytime I listen to the comedy channels now. Its recorded clips of routines why the hell do they have commercials on paid radio now? I get the sports stations, but not pre-recorded crap.

I just renewed the other day with no drama. I told them I wanted to keep my introductory price rate, and it was no problem.
