I did call Land Rover Canada and they have confirmed that the mail was from them.
When you click on the link supplied in the email, you are redirected to a shop page on the incontrol website.
The last digits of your VIN are listed on that page too.
if it’s a scam… bravo

I received this email today from "lradvice@landroverincontrolshop.com". Called LR customer care and they did confirm it's from them. And they did confirm it's $500 for the year.
Also I did request that they log my feedback and have a word with whoever made this pricing decision to evaluate why they arrived at the $500 number. It's 2x what it should be, in my opinion. For $250, fine. For $500, the value just isn't there.
PS the rep also confirmed that if I don't do it, it's just the wifi hotspot in the car, and my app that lets me do remote starts, unlock the car will continue working for the duration of the 4 year warranty period. So at least they were knowledgeable and up to speed on things.

Got the same e-mail today and it's $160 for one year for the data pack. Not sure it's worth the cost as I never had the "hotspot" on either Defender and dealer was unable to rectify that issue with neither vehicle. I think the InControl app is worth the money just for the locator and stolen vehicle features. Online Pack with Data Plan (12 Months)
$160.00

I got the same email too and the price I was offered is $160 as well. I looked at what the Online Pack offers and I don't use any of the music services and never used the calendar to navigate to any destination so declined the renewal. Your subscription includes:
