When you go to the length of adding yourself to the National Do Not Call Registry you likely expect NOT TO BE CALLED. However, sometimes those pesky solicitation phone calls still manage to seep through the cracks. For example, the Plaintiffs in the case called Buchanan v. Sirius XM Radio Inc. allege they received solicitation calls from Sirius even after they registered for the National Do Not Call Registry and/or Sirius’ Internal Do Not Call Registry. If you believe you are eligible for this settlement, you can begin by going to the online filing page and clicking the File Claim tab.

- An All Access subscription includes more than 150 channels and online streaming
- The overall retail value of the free subscription service from Sirius XM is around $81
- What it boils down to: flexibility of the cash payment vs. the value of the free service
