My trial subscription runs out in a couple weeks. The letters I've received so far have offered me the standard $14.49 per month pricing.
Do I have to let it expire before they will offer me a much better rate?

What are some of the recent deals other members have been able to get?

They have a couple of plans they'll offer you if you call and tell them you don't get enough value out of it for $15 a month. One is a 5 month plan for, I think $29.95...the other is a year for $80. Then they add fees and taxes to those so the $80 package is over $100, but it's less than the full price.

Others have negotiated different deals... I suggest you not subscribe to the traffic or weather services....they seem to want a lot of money for both, neither of which seems at all useful (since I have a cellphone for weather and the traffic info seems to be always wrong.

If you let the trial run out, they will call/email you and drop the pricing. My last car they offered $7/month from $12 after I let it lapse.

There was an offer last year for $77/year. After your subscription run out, they will call you. Mention that offer and they will give it to you even though it's no longer offered. On my Lexus, the subscription didn't include Howard Stern and when I mentioned that, they offered complete Sirius channels for $4/mo.

I have $77/year on my Honda. You must let it expire, and then tell them that it is too expensive and you won't pay the full pop. Be careful not to agree to the auto renewal or you'll get full price for year #2

Thanks for the replies and advice.
I will let it expire then try to get one of the discounted packages.
