Title: BMW axes hardware-based subscription service, shifting to software subscription services instead
Post by: Redaktion on September 09, 2023, 00:54:57
BMW is canning the controversial subscription services that merely activated pre-installed hardware in its customers' vehicles, but the subscription model will stick around for other post-sales add-ons.

The level of condescension on his 'sorry but not sorry' answer but the really the customer is wrong is more the reason I never support these brands. And it's not just the brand level, it would be perverse in their work culture and filters down to their products.

No thanks.

Nota, companies lying through their teeth to customers, disrespecting their customers and treating their customers with utter distain is the reality. Thank you for providing yet another example of why no customer should support BMW or any company that sh#ts so hard on its customers.

Welcome to the "everything as a service" world.

And to quote Oncle Klaus "you will own nothing, you will not be happy, and there is not a damn thing you can do about it, sucker"
