<title>Just renewed for $77 + royalty fee</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23203698</link>
<description><![CDATA[I called and selected to go straight to cancelations.

When they answered I said I wanted to either cancel or renew at $77 because I do not use it enough to justify paying more.
The person on the phone said she can renew it for $77 + ~$12 music royalty fee.  It was not worth arguing over the extra $12 for the year.

<title>[Reception] More drop outs than usual?</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22501897</link>
<description><![CDATA[Haas there been any changes with the service lately?  It seems like in the past few weeks I am getting drop outs in area that I normally never had them.  I have a 2008 Altima with XM built in, and going under a few trees normally would not cause the audio to go out.  But lately it has been absolutely ridiculous.  

I assume I am going crazy?]]></description>

<title>[Service] sirius orbiter radio does not transmit to fm tuner</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23247422</link>
<description><![CDATA[ :( :(I have two sirius orbiter units that I have been using for about five trouble-free years now. But recently, one of the orbiters stopped transmiting to its fm tuner. I swapped-out and put my other unit in its docking station and my other orbiter worked fine.  What could be the problem? ]]></description>

<title>[Service] xm did me good, believe it or not</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23082815</link>
<description><![CDATA[My RoadyXT XM radio went on the blink several days ago.  It would get stuck on the "loading" screen.  Naturally, on my budget it is hard enough keeping a subscription, but we have NO TV here, we are too far from Nashville to get a signal, and there is no cable here, and on top of that, too many trees for a Dish service let alone we can't afford it.  Because of all of this, XM supplies a badly needed connection to the world, I can listen to CNN for instance (I just wish that they supplied MSNBC).

Well, I called XM and explained to them that my radio was on the blink and the techies went through their steps to acertain if the radio is useable.  It was broken...

Well, they transferred me to the department to cancel the service but the person I talked to was very courteous and she told me that she could send a radio and car kit to me free of charge, and if I needed a home kit and had 1/2 of its retail cost, they would supply me with that too, if I ask for the rentention department.

The sent me an XPress that I like a lot more than my dead Roady XT.  This XPress has a rotating knob for changing channels and selections which I like MUCH more than the button push button implementation of the XT.

I was able to use the car cradle with my XT's antenna and AC Power adapter.  When I get some money, I will take them up on getting the home kit though.

I feel quite fortunate and I am happy that I can't still have XM.  The only issue is that this radio has a 90 day warranty, it is a refurb.

So, sure, I know XM/Sirius have done somethings to P.O. many of us, But for me, they have been quite good.  A year ago I got 3 months service for no charge.

Thank you XM/Sirius!

Looks like I will be selling my car kit and home kit to the XT, and whoever buys I will let them have the XT to see what they can do with it.
