Bad Bowtie Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 So has anyone else on here heard about the XM radio code we can use today, and get the service for $77.00 a year? It is called "WINZBACK" or something like that? I heard that some people received letters in the mail from XM with the code and special pricing. I just thought I'd ask the "pros" on here. LOL!!!

scooter3 Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 It's true, a lot of people are doing it. First... call and make sure they are not going to auto renew you and charge your credit card. Have your radio code and call the customer service number. Tell them you want to let it expire because it's too expensive at full rates. Then, they might offer you the $77 deal. If so, skip the rest of these steps and take it. If not, hang up after making sure it will not auto renew. After it cancels, then call in with the script about having gotten a flyer. See the scan of the previous flyer posted HERE . Then call the 800-682-4114 number and read the script: SCRIPT FOLLOWS: "Hello. My subscription to XM Radio has expired but I just got a flyer with a special offer. I would like to take advantage of this offer for $77 for a year." The old promotion code, "zwinback", according to recent posters who secured the deal, is no longer needed. If they ask for the radio code, give that to them. They WILL ask for it because that's the only way they can turn it on. If you had, in fact, gotten a flyer, it would have your radio code printed on it so have it handy. You can always get your radio code by tuning your XM radio to channel 0. If at first you don't succeed, try again. Most people get it on the first try but others required 2 or 3 calls to different Customer Service reps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raandoggy Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 You don't have to cancel your account. Just call them up and they will just charge you 77 bucks for the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad Bowtie Posted March 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 No XM was an option. Do u have an antenna on the roof (dual antennas if u have Onstar too)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad Bowtie Posted April 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 IT DOES WORK!!! I'm back with XM for the $77.00/year deal!!! Thanks fellow truckers!! I had no service with XM for about a year. I bought my truck new & let the XM run out after 1 year of paid service. I called them up & told them I had this flyer with a $77/yr flyer mailed to my house like a month ago. They hooked me up!! They asked for my radio code, and verified what vehicle I was driving. After we were done on the phone I asked them about the "auto-renew" part of the plan. They asked why I was only wanting it for a single year, so I told them I was a "DEAL SEEKER", and since they just merged with Sirus there might be another better offer down the road. So the XM agent set the account to auto-cancel in 12 months. She said I would have to call them back to continue my XM service. Anyways, I thought I would just pass it on.

brobradh77 Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 (edited) I'm curious how the XM customers would fair with this merger. I mean is XM stuff going to become obsolete? Or is Sirius going to integrate both so that the users who have XM equipment can get sirius programming as well?
