When SiriusXM charges you
SiriusXM plans renew automatically at the end of each term — monthly plans each month, prepaid promotional terms (the classic $5/month-for-a-year deal) in full at the published rate when the promo ends. The renewal after a promo is the surprise: the charge date matches your term end, but the amount is several times what you'd been paying.

Can you change your SiriusXM billing date?
No self-serve setting — the renewal date is your term end. Because SiriusXM's retention desk negotiates heavily, the practical move is to call before renewal: you can usually get a new promotional term (which resets the cycle to the day you call) instead of eating the full-price renewal.

Charged by SiriusXM unexpectedly?
If the amount jumped, your promotional rate expired and the plan renewed at the full published rate — call SiriusXM, say you want to cancel, and you'll almost always be offered a new promo rate or a refund-and-rerate. If you'd already cancelled, get the cancellation confirmation number from your records and dispute with your card issuer if they won't reverse it.
Never get surprised by a renewal again. Skycopia watches your bank feed and nudges you before each renewal date — including annual fees that land months off your usual cycle.
