Free Tidal streaming account with Mercedes Me

[Ted]

While registering for Mercedes Me, I picked up that they are offering Tidal HiFi free for a year - normally £19.99.
I've found it's a good service and great quality. If you have Sky you can also stream to your boxes, bypassing the need for a Sonos type system (at lower quality of course)
Haven't actually tried it in the car yet, so I don't know if it works as an app on the head unit, but if not, it should work with Carplay.
I don't think that after a year I would stay with the HiFi service but I would be tempted to downgrade to the lossy 'Premium' service at £9.99 as I have the quality on mobile set lower anyway.

Only available if you have a brand new A Class with MBUX media. If you look on page 44 of 47 of the Mercedes Me enormous document you’ll see it qualifies that. You’ll also have to enter into a contract with Vodafone (I think) for a data contract, so not so free !

I'm using it now on my iPhone? Should certainly stream via bluetooth at the very least?

That would work but I just took a look and allegedly Tidal works in Car Play so if you have that, that would be the way to go.

Yes - literally just come in from using it and the carplay integration is VERY good.

Is this free offer still available?
