I believe certain features like automatic crash notification, service interval notifications to the dealer, sending navigation information to the car's onboard GPS via Google Maps on a PC, and 'connected drive' features would stop working. Connected Drive gets me realtime weather, news, messages, and some other features. My iPhone BMW Remote App would stop working too including features like lock the doors, flash the headlights, honk the horn, and locate the car on the map.
Those are capabilities I paid extra for in the technology package and it wouldn't be right for BMW to abandon customers who paid for this capability. I'm sure it's costing them a lot more to do the retrofit than the $300 gift card offer they proposed. If you accept the gift card, you also accept the fact that you lose all the cool technology features.
