If you think that's inaccurate, please let me know, and I'll happily retract at least some of my criticisms of BMW as a corporation.
I did comment the same on a different thread - I paid for it when I handed over the check, it was never advertised as a feature only available with Connected Drive 4 years ago.
I will look into the workaround, will not pay for the subscription!
