I canceled my XM, had one XM in the car and a Sirius in the Evoque.  Can not have one account, hours on the phone trying to drop one of my two xm and add sirius. 

Such a pain they lost a 6 year customer.

Ok.  Update.  Finally got ahold of customer service.  Seems I did have the basic plan which doesn't include NASCAR.  Sooo, I had them drop my Nav/traffic/weather upgrade and move me to the premium plan.  I went from $25 for stuff I didn't use anyway to $17 and finally have what I want.  If those idiots would have just included NASCAR in the first place, they'd still be getting 8 or 9 extra dollars out of me.

I just installed  the RT 665 and activated the XM. What horrible customer service!!! First time I called the message said it would be a 4 minute wait and I hung up after 30 minutes. Called back a hour later and this time the message said it would be a 6 minute wait and I stuck it out for 45 minutes before they finally answered. The person barely spoke English and I still don't know what packages are available and from reading this thread, I guess I still don't have the traffic service which I tried to tell this person I wanted but am only paying $9.95 per month. Very frustrating but I do love the service and have really only listened to Satellite for many years and have to put up with the crappy customer service...

I get NASCAR on channel 90.  I think you have to pay more for the upper tier package.  David

I just got mine so I hope that I don't need customer service from the sounds of it. I really like the channels and have about 15 i surf Thur. I think the price is high but I sprung for the 665 and wanted to use all the features. I am a tech kinda guy and like gadgets. I subscribed on line and it was fast and easy. Pulled bike out in the driveway and clicked the button to send a signal. In a few minutes I was rocking. No human interaction and no problem....Face

Oh you're such a geek.  :2vrolijk_21: :2vrolijk_21: Good job man and thanks for the online idea. I've been just calling them but then I only subscribe for 1 month a year...and haven't used in a very long time. Didn't even set up the XM account on Big blue last summer.

Trying to remember what XM radios I have. Bought a stand alone in 2005 then my pickup has it, Blue has it and I also have a 665 on another bike. Seems like I'm missing one...maybe I'm just thinking internet radio access. Wish I had the radar on Big Blue that the 665 does. It came in very handy last year while riding between tornados.

You guys having the customer service problems should try updating on your own online. I have changed my package a couple times over the  years and always completed it online with no problems or human interaction at all. I did call them recently when wife bought anew car that had a year of free service on it and I wanted to change the plan we had been using on her previous car to my sons car. Guy I was speaking with was a little hard to understand, but did offer to change my deal around which resulted in saving $55 if I paid a year in advance. I felt he was tryin, He offered, I didn't even ask.

Thanks for the thoughts and suggestions COR. Unfortunately, they have my account so botched up that in the list of 5 radios numbers showing on my online account, not one of them is the number that is associated with the radio I do have. I have been over this with them (on the phone - Groan) and they still haven't been able to straighten things out. If I try to add my current, valid radio ID into the online interface, I will be charged again for a new subscription.

I think I will stick with my iPod.
