I called BMW Assist and they advised me to contact the dealer which I will do tomorrow. Planned obsolescence is wonderful isn't it, NOT.

you're welcome! I didn't get a letter or email either, just the text message in my idrive screen to go to the site. It looked the same as what

I use BMW assist features all the time (app to lock, unlock, send navi destinations to car, set climate fan start time, Google Local Search to find stuff for navi), not to mention the features I hope never to use... like the automatic phone call to EMS in case of crash and finding the car in case of theft
I'm very surprised if anyone would pick the $200 and $300 option to deactivate. The insurance discount from having the BMW Assist theft recovery system alone is more valuable than the gift cards...
