At Bestconsumer, We Help You Save

At Bestconsumer, we understand the importance of saving money any way we can, which is why we work hard to reduce bills for our customers on commonly used services. Whether it’s phone, TV, internet, alarm, or streaming services, virtually every service category is negotiable—even satellite radio.

Despite the fact that SiriusXM dominates satellite radio with very little competition and strong pricing power, it’s still possible for existing customers to negotiate with SiriusXM to get great deals.

Here’s how to do it:

Estimate savings & sign up

Step 1: Contact SiriusXM Directly

If you are one of SiriusXM’s 35 million subscribers, you know what a valuable and essential streaming service it is, with nearly every genre of music and talk radio represented on over 350 channels. Most people become Sirius customers through the free trial offered when buying a new car.

Customers often convert their free trials to memberships, using the service in multiple locations—car, home, and various devices. It’s easy to sign up and forget about it, enjoying the service for years without reviewing bills or renegotiating rates. To ensure you get the best deal, you’ll need to take action. The first step in a successful negotiation is to contact the company and speak to a live representative.

  • Locate the phone number on your SiriusXM statement and have your account number ready.
  • Review your current plan and usage before calling. Determine the most cost-effective plan for you and your family.
  • Don’t let the representative talk you into a bigger plan than you need.

Step 2: Start Negotiating

Once you know whether you want to keep your plan, you can start negotiating for a better deal.

Research the different SiriusXM plans available. Here are some of the most popular:

  • Essential Plan: Free streaming of 300+ channels on phone, home, and online (no car) for 4 months. Paid period starts after free trial based on then-current rates.
  • Select Plan: 350+ channels in and out of the car for $60 for the first 12 months, plus free activation.
  • All Access Plan: Same as the Select Plan, plus personalized stations and two Howard Stern channels (including video) for $99 for the first 12 months, plus free activation.
  • Contact the SiriusXM retention department and request a reassessment of your plan.
  • Express appreciation for the service but state that your rates are too high and you’d like a better deal.
  • Reject the first offer they give you.
  • If you don’t get the deal you want, hang up and try again later—you may have better luck with a different representative.

Step 3: Let a Company Negotiate for You

If you dislike long wait times and frustrating negotiations, hiring a professional negotiator is the easiest and most effective solution.

With a bill-cutting service like Bestconsumer, you can eliminate the hassle and still secure the best deal.

  • Use our cost calculator on our website to get an estimated savings within minutes.
  • Select your service type, provider, and enter your current monthly payment.
  • We take it from there—our experts contact your provider and negotiate on your behalf.
  • You don’t pay us a thing unless we successfully lower your bill.

Renegotiating your bills is one of the quickest ways to cut spending. Bestconsumer’s team of experts secures the best deals—even from companies with monopolies like SiriusXM.
