OnStar has our credit card number so I need to remember to cancel the 3 month plan that has a bunch of extra stuff we don't need and continue on with the free 8 year Basic plan.
There is also 3 months of XM. If you're not interested in XM I'm guessing you can say no to that when getting things setup.

My wife reminded me we will get a email from Onstar and XM after 2 months letting us know the 3 month trial will end in one month.

OnStar always puts the hard sell on at activation and tries to assume you will want the $$$ add ons

No hard sell from the OnStar operator for us.

Hard sell maybe not the best phrase. They word it such that it’s assumed you’ll want to do the add on and then ask for a CC number. Just say no.

I cancelled Onstar after my 3 months trial. They constantly send emails and the occasional phone call. I told them if I get in an accident and they refuse to help i will sue the daylights of them. Never got a response to that

I heard that I did! On-Star and SeriousXM bug the dickens out of me. I bearly drive 30 miles a week. I just can't justify buying something not used.
You know what "They" say: Big Brother is watching anyway!

I’d worry more about spelling.

I’d worry more about spelling.

Spelling, Smelling! At 75....... I will still work on it. OK? Know What I mean? Seriously? Aren't there more important things to worry about?

Who is they?

"They" is Themuns what ain't usuns. ( I am aware that the spelling and grammar is not correct or proper )
Many years ago....I found myself asking that very same question. Some of my conclusions refer to people that believe themselves to be greater than anyone or everyone else.
Sometimes, it was people in positions that I thought were unattainable, until I attained that position. Most often, it was the ones that were on the other side of the door. Then when I went through the door, it was the ones on the other side of the door.

WTF... how's that for spelling? Listen Mike, I'm guessing this is a forum for peeps to ask questions and post frustrations with their car. I'm not sure that spelling is that important, specially in the midst of a passionate argument LOL. So go easy on those of us, who are not here for a grammar reminder. The account application did not require an iq, or an education level, it just requested that you curve your language and that we be civil to each other. Now, let's get back to talking car.

Mike was replying to criticism of his spelling. Since I am not too far behind him in age, I will defend the old guy!

 

[ap19063]

Thank you for correcting that. I'll admit that I thought he was complaining about someone's post. That said, I'll jump in an defend him as well, and any other for all that matters, which was the point I was trying to make, regardless of who made the original criticism. Peace!
