I think all their services are grossly overpriced. Who wants to pay 30 or 40 cents a minute to listen to the weather?!!! I renewed the basic service last month, and I was hesitant to do that. But I use my car for long distance travel and want the assurance of quick assistance if I smash the car.
I have used their consierge service. While helpful, I think consulting a map or local phone book would have taken about the same time. It is convenient and kind of entertaining to be driving along while someone else looks things up, but it's definitely not worth a premium price to me.
Once I had to tell the OnSTar lady where I was. She said my car symbol was on top of the interstate number and she could not figure out where I was!
It's too cumbersome and too reliant on personal training. Give me a GPS Nav system any day!
