It's quite odd. I went to lunch today, and just for s&g, decided to switch over to my long-expired-not-going-to-renew-because-of-o&a XM radio and lo and behold, I have stations 20-46-50-54 and a few others. I wonder what the reason for this is, because for the past few months, I haven't had anything.
I'm contemplating calling them and telling them to shut it off completely, as I don't care to be part of their subscriber list if they are trying to pad it by giving away a few stations.
I canceled my service last Thursday, then noticed yesterday that a few stations were back on. I thought maybe my radio had been re-activated inadvertently as they fixed whatever problems they were having. Wonder what's up with that?

XM was having a free preview of some channels that is going through the 24th.

I also cancelled last week, but can still hear 17, 20, 46, 54, 71, and 156.
I don't know why, but have verified I am cancelled, if i login to the web account shows no radios, and won't let me listen online. Very weird tho.
Kinda want to call them to ask whats up, in antoher way kinda wanna mooch off them for free, as its got to cost them something.

Its part of a service preview for non-subscribers. All XM radios should get those channels through the end of this week I believe.
