I'm not a Best Buy customer. You wouldn't sell me a Sirius radio unless I forked over my personal information. That's something I refused to do. I called Sirius and told them about my experience. They told me that they have <strong>no</strong> agreement with Best Buy that requires my personal information to be recorded by you. When I bought my radio at Circuit City, they didn't ask me for my personal information. That makes me believe Sirius. Gina, you state that you frequently review your customer blogs and forum posts.

That makes me believe Sirius.

We frequently review our customers’ blog and forum posts to gain insight into their experiences. I was sorry to hear about the experience you describe. According to the agreements we have in place with the Sirius satellite radio corporation, Best Buy is required to record the name and address of each customer who purchases a Sirius satellite radio from us. I personally have both Sirius and XM satellite radio. I discussed my experience with both satellite providers on my blog: http://gina-communities.blogspot.com/. I hope you enjoy your Sirius satellite radio. Sincerely, Gina, Best Buy’s Community Connection Manager Connecting with technology for a better tomorrow Issue #48867039 Hi Rick,

If you sell drugs, just get another identity to but shit under.

Idiot.

They have to pair people with the satellite radios. The register wont let them through without it. Usually because there is some form of rebate, or security measure (to see who will be activating this radio) It makes it a lot easier on the consumer who will have to deal with theives. Sirius will have your credit card and address as well, I don't understand why you're so paranoid. If you sell drugs, just get another identity to but shit under. Idiot. I used to work at bestbuy.
