XM Satellite Radio  — 

XM is actually a great way to hear great music...unless you manage to get somewhere that blocks the signal (like under a tree/bridge/garage). Their customer service however is the worst I've EVER experienced.

Example...I attempted to buy ANOTHER radio from the XM site. But I couldn't because they locked my account..why? Because my credit card expired within a month. It didn't matter that my account was paid for 120+ more days, or that the credit card in question had not expired yet. "customer service" in 'India' refused to do ANYTHING until I gave them another credit card (which I refused to do)...The poor guy kept trying to make that sell.."If you will just give me your credit card information",,,That was call #1

Calls 2+3 didn't get me anywhere either (in fact I've been on hold for a supervisor for 52 minutes)..so I'm just going to cancel this stuff and play Pandora in the car.

I agree! Horrible customer service. I am going to cancel once my promotional period is over. I just spent 25 minutes on the phone over a bill inquiry. I could not understand a word the person was saying to me.
