10,000 GM Rewards Points Offer

econometrics · December 4, 2019

Anyone else get this email from GM Financial today?

Not very clear. All it says is “push the button next time you’re in for Certified Service” and you’ll get 10K points and $50 allowance. Even the fine print doesn’t seem to say anything about purchasing a plan with OnStar.

I already have Remote Access for my truck, so I wonder if this will actually work to get me 10K points just for pushing the button when I go in next week for service?

And here's the fine print:

For 10K points, I think that's time well spent. I can easily call them and tell them to stop. Heck, even if I was charged one month, it's still worth it when you consider what you can buy for 10K points and $50.
