Sirius Question

I recently purchased a 2024 F-250 and the vehicle came with a Sirius trial subscription.
My question is does anyone know how long that trial is supposed to last? My cell started ringing off the hook with calls from them which I ignored, then after 2 weeks of this the service was turned off.

This is at the 3 month mark

Appears to be so:
https://www.siriusxm.com/trial-offer/ford

"1 Trial Length: A 3-month trial subscription is included for all new SiriusXM-equipped Ford vehicles. All certified pre-owned (CPO) and eligible pre-owned vehicles include a 3-month trial subscription."

3 months on my 2024 Lariat.
I got an offer to extend for another 6 months from Ford for like $19.99 which I did and used my FordPass points.

You screwed yourself really, really badly. When my trial was about up on my 22 Platinum I called Sirius to discuss subscriptions. I told them that it wasn’t worth what they charge and that I wouldn’t pay more than $5 a month.
I got 1 year @ $4.99 and then the regular rate.
When it comes up for renewal you just do the same thing again.

6 months for 20 bucks is cheaper than 5 bucks a month, how did he screw himself?
I just cancelled my subscription again after their $1 for 3 months deal they offered me.
I don't listen enough to make it worth paying more than that for it, and they wouldn't give me that deal again so I told them to cancel it.
Took 20 freaking minutes on the phone to get it cancelled though...

My oops- I misread it- I thought it was per month.

I will go sit in the box and feel shame now.

The chat bot on their website makes any transaction with SXM super fast and painless.

I did the same back in August. My previous subscription was in for $6.99 a month. At renewal time I told them if they couldn't keep it the same or do better to turn it off. They got it to $4.99 all in.
It's the same old song & dance every year. But I do use it, especially now since I have 2 other vehicles with Apple CarPlay. The Sirius app powers both so I can listen in 3 vehicles or on the TV for that $4.99.

I pay $5 per month and I can't believe they allow it because that's dirt cheap for what they give. So much content I couldn't possibly enjoy it all. Nothing to connect with Bluetooth, no wires, don't even need my phone. Just great music with no ads and no fuzzy static.

Sirius doesn't know its azz from a hole in the ground. They don't even have satellite coverage in Alaska yet they keep on sending me past due notices because I would not renew.
Renew what?
