Question Is It Really Free?

Is it really Free? Satellite Radio dropped a bomb on me….

My buddy at work directed me to the Satellite radio web site (Not XM.. there competition for now)
and showed me their “Free” I day listening gimmick. Anyway like a dunce, I signed up
and provided only my name and Email address,.they said they needed it “So they could send
me the code to log on”..Yep!

I did and logged on and listened over my computer.. Chose some stations that I might
be interested in. Was considering subscribing…

Anyway-

Next day,… log on my email….and…well..to put it lightly.. it jammed with spam…
everything from surveys from Nike …do I like questionnaires…massive amount of b_ll****.

I mean Jammed!!!!!!

So I emailed them and asked them “why they sold me to the dogs”…I got back a canned
response basically “No Comprende”..……………Fornicators.

Anyway for two weeks it has been full of crap everyday and I have “spammed” it but it
Is still relentless….I’m really pissed and I am not going to subscribe to there service..

There is no question it was them….I have never had a problem before and they were my
only contact. So… think about some of these so called freebies…..remember nothing is free…
I knew better.. I just hope I can finally firewall this barrage of boloney. Learned a lesson again..

What do you guys think about supermarket cards like “The Ralph’s Card” “Vons Card”?
(west coast) These are my pet peeve. Why do you need a card to get a descent price…Because… they
are main-framing everything you buy and sell your information to other
companies. It would be one thing if the card was exclusive…But its not ..they sent one
to my dog because I put her name on the app... ( Sassy Snyder) Humm?

Then suddenly you get a coupon for Budweiser for Sassy Snyder….Yep! From Budweiser?

Sometime, enter one of those “Fill out a questionnaire and win a free car”…Don’t put your real
name, .put your nick name or something you would remember and see how much junk
mail you receive after it with your alias on it.. You'll be surprised. Don’t worry.. you wont win
the car with your wrong name on it…

Anyway- Satellite radio got me good…and I just want you guys to know…

Bob
