The symphony channel 79 has not become another worship channel

Updated by user Aug 08, 2026

45 minutes of *** talking to your AI nonsense, trying to sign me up for another plan rather than answering my question.Then whoever did answer the phone, perhaps living in Madagascar or Malaysia, hung up on me in the middle of the call without resolving the problem.All I was asking was why the Symphony called channel with classical music was no longer on and they couldn't answer the simple question.You unexpectedly changed the channels without telling anyone, because apparently you think that's a fun thing to do, and I finally found you changed it from 79 to 68 but it took me about four hours.Stupidest business people ever ever ever ever fire everyone because your own absolutely stupid.10 times worse than crackhead barrel!

Original review Aug 06, 2026
What happened to the Symphony and classical music channel? It's now worship or something like that which I have nothing against because I love God-fearing man, but I like classical music so if you're not going to have it, I'm going to cancel. Thank y

User's recommendation: If it doesn't change back to the symphony channel I'm canceling

Resolved: WHY IS IT SO HARD to access my account...

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Hard to sign in and access my account.
  • - Site pushes radio content, making my info hard to find.
  • - Longtime subscriber says help is hard to reach.

Why is it so hard to access my account every time I want to look at my account or perhaps add a service? It's impossible.

I go to sign in, and the site states manage, paid all the items I want, and all the stupid site does is want to do is listen to the radio. Every time I want to access, I get really pissed off, and that's where I'm at now. You are too hard to get help. Subscriber and longtime, but it's impossible.

Your site is the worst just to get to my information. Whomever designed the site should be fired!

Pros:
  • Great listening
Cons:
  • Accessing your account

Preferred solution: make it easier to access account

User's recommendation: I like the Sirius radio but trying to access your account forget it -10

Resolved: New car

We have had Sirius for years. Sat we got a new car.

They tried to talk me through, taking it off old car and adding to new car. Nothing I was told worked.

I found out later that new cars, (ours is a Honda), can only fet Sirius if you download the app on your phone. Each of our phones would be billedFound many angry consumers on line catting about that.

Cancel service on former car and on new car

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Chatbot solved the issue

100 characters is a silly requirement when what expresses my feelings can be said in 21!

I have no idea what 100 symbols means versus 100 characters but now you are wasting my time and brain, and this all you get decreasing your score from 5 to 1!!!
