How Much $$$$$ Do You Pay For Onstar?!?&#

[gabet95]

My trial year is almost over and I'm trying to decide if I should keep it or not.

For $28 a month I will most likely terminate the service though.

 

I've heard people pay anywhere from $17 to $28 a month.

 

What are the current deals out there?

 

Thanks

Mine is $28 a month,But I have the "Directions & Connections" plan,the basic "Safe & Sound" plan is $16

I also keep minutes on the phone,as I do not have a cell phone.

You ARE aware that this is 2010, right?

Yep,But I don't need one (Half the people that do have them don't need one )

I've been using the Mapquest download to the GPS more frequently lately. But I don't know if it's worth the extra $$. I just can't decide if I want to put my much better Kenwood with Garmin navi in or leave the factory unit in and have the convenience of using Mapquest and Onstar for location entry.

I am paying $12 for "Safe n Sound" for a year with a 6 free months of navigation services.

Yeah I dont have one either, I have Vonage which I take with me when I travel the world, works on any internet service provided. People I call who do have cell phones, never answer their phones, so I figure if you need to get a hold of me, leave me a message on my land line in which I can check my voice messages from any computer by logging onto my account and then I can call you from there.

I think the last renewal was ~$149 (total) for a year for the "safe and sound", so that's ~$12.40/mo.

If my employer wouldn't have given me a phone, I wouldn't have one. I can count on one hand how many calls I've made/received on it.

 

When my 1st yr of OnStar is over, I will not be renewing. I did the same thing on my wife's Tahoe. When the 1st yr was up, I didn't renew the service.

$12 for the safe n sound. I figure $12 is not bad incase I get into an accident on an isolated road. As far as GPS I have my own so I don't see the need for it.

Hasn't been activated since 2007, not worth any money IMO.

I just looked on the On-Star website,They list the Safe and Sound plan as being $18.95/month or $199/year (plus tax) for '07-up vehicles,But I'm sure you could talk them down in price if you threaten to un-subscribe!

[gabet95]

My subscription is over in July and I'm already getting emails and letters in the mail regarding renewing the service.

 

I'm gonna call them up and offer $150 for the entire year of Premium Service (safe/sound & directions/connections).

If they turndown my offer I'll cancel the service and get the OnStar system replaced with a in-dash nav system.

 

I did the same in my last Tahoe.

What is a land line?

What is a land line?

 

A regular phone,you know........before cell phones!

 

And actually before regular phones they had the "party line" phone system,that was fun!

[tileking13]

When my subscription was up and they started to charge me every month $18, I called to cancel. Right off the bat they offered me the same package at $12 a month, but when i still said no, they said we'll give you 6 free months to consider it. Im still thinking "Freely" about it!!!
