Article about the Canceled XM Subs

[led37zep]

Few things shocked me about this article.

1) its so well written
2) There are other people in LA listening to 202 besides me.

thats a terrific article........give XM a black-eye and maybe will show people that the PEOPLE do have a voice!

Good article but it wasn't a skit with a character named Homeless Charlie. When it's put like that it makes it seem like they sat down with the intent to write it instead of it being the ravings of a lunatic.

yea it is odd that people keeping going back to that. For some reason I do think Homless Charlie is eventually going to show up on T.V. on one of the cable talk shows.

Ha Ha. I can imagine a producer trying to sell that one to the boss.

"Wait...let me get this straight...you want to put on a guy who went on the radio and said a bunch of inappropriate things that got the show suspended? Well, what are we waiting for?!?"

The funny thing is, he probably isn't even aware of the shit storm he's started. Wonder if he'll be invited to the homeless shopping spree?

Those of you that canceled, might not have been canceled (http://www.consumerist.com/consumer/state-of-the-backlash/xm-pretends-to-let-customers-cancel-261566.php).

I phoned XM customer service to change the credit card # that they had on file for me and the next time my sub was renewed it showed up on my old card. Also, when I phone to manage my account the phone # that I have given them at least 20 times never works with the stupid automated directory. When I phone now I just repeat "operator" over and over until I get to talk to a person that can help me, even if their english isn't the best. XM's customer service sucks.
