Grey Posted March 8, 2008 Report Share Posted March 8, 2008 (edited) There were some 1 year deals out there for a short period. I got a notice from Sirius that my 6 months was coming up and an offer to renew. I did the 6 months at $51.80 - that was the cheapest monthly rate. Go to sirius.com and get their rates. :shades: Edited March 8, 2008 by Grey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goatee Posted March 8, 2008 Report Share Posted March 8, 2008 Got my Edge on Feb 23rd - Dealer told me there was one year complimentary subscription to Sirius not the 6 months listed on the sticker. I didn't quetion it, just took it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Starr Posted March 9, 2008 Report Share Posted March 9, 2008 (edited) Funny, I had forgotten about this completely. I bough 2/07 had 6 months 'free'. It expired sometime, then I called in and paid something like $28 for thee months. Its been on ever since, lol. :happy feet: So, I have 'paid' for 9 months had it for 14.

spyhunter Posted March 9, 2008 Report Share Posted March 9, 2008 (edited) Bought my 07 6/07. Sticker said 3 month free. It's been on ever since. I haven't seen a renewal letter or anything from sirius. I'll just keep listening till it goes out or get a letter. When I bought the car I thought I would just let the free service run out and not renew, but now I don't think I will stop the service, It's better than I thought. Anywho, ........

Lex Talionis Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 I was also told 6 months free.. I have 3 Sirius subscriptions/accounts already as I am a big fan. Rather than call them and get it added the day I bought the car and see how they planned on mange the 6 months free, I will just wait until 'it' (however long that will be) dies and then call them and add it to my account. I read in the manual that it will alert you and give you a phone number to call so I just figured that if I was on the road, I would call and have it activated and added to my account - if I am home, I will just do it on the web. Until that day, i am going to let it ride and see how long it goes. BTW, if it is like it has been in the past, it is 'mo cheaper to just pay a year in advance & cheaper to add it on the internets on your own rather than call them (like $10 different at one time). Also..they are not desperate XM (yet), so they are not negotiating prices to keep subscribers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeus Posted September 11, 2008 Report Share Posted September 11, 2008 I've had my Edge since March of '07 and my Sirius is still running. I have not paid a dime to renew or anything yet. That's 18 months "free" so far. Can't say I'm complaining! I know they will eventually catch on to this, but until then, I will keep listening.

Was able to add it to my account for 6.99 per month. so it seems they were on top of mine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Starr Posted September 11, 2008 Report Share Posted September 11, 2008 Mine's still on 18 months later... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PearlEdge Posted September 24, 2008 Report Share Posted September 24, 2008 If you've had the subscription longer than the specified time (3 months, 6 months, whatever) then I'm guessing the dealership didn't let Sirius know that the vehicle had been sold and to "start the clock" on the free subscription. I asked the salesman how this worked when we bought our 08 Edge LTD AWD and was told that the dealership had to inform Sirius. So for you :happy feet: but for the dealership . Not your problem as far as I can see. Who knows, you may get free Sirius as long as you own the Edge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No notice or anything, just all of a sudden BAM! I know that I got more than what was advertised but the end result is that some form of notification should be common sense. Simply turning off an account is unacceptable in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You didn't get the letter warning about the impending expiration and the opportunity to renew ? I did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
