When you purchase a qualifying device on fi.google.com, you can redeem a travel gift card in the amount you paid for the device, excluding taxes (details below).

To qualify for this promotion, a device must be activated within 15 days of device shipment and remain active for 60 consecutive days within 75 days of device shipment. The device must be activated within the same group plan that was used to purchase the device. Activation must be for full service (i.e., activation does not apply to a data-only SIM).

This offer is available for new Google Fi customers as of 11/28/18 12:00 AM PT and existing, active Google Fi customers. If the customer is new to Google Fi, the customer must transfer (port-in) their current personal number over to Google Fi during sign up. The number being transferred must be currently active and have been active with the previous carrier and the customer since 8/28/18 12:00 AM PT.

After the terms have been satisfied, the customer will receive an email from Google Fi (around 75 - 90 days after device activation) with instructions on how to obtain a gift card from Tango subject to Tango's terms and conditions. The user can redeem gift card amounts with select travel partners:Airbnb, Delta Air Lines, Hotels.com, and Southwest Airlines. Gift cards may also be subject to the terms of the travel partners.

If Fi service is paused for more than 7 days or cancelled within 120 days of activation, the value of the gift card will be charged to your Google Payments account to match the purchased price of the device. Limit one per person. This offer is only available for U.S. residents ages 18 and older, and requires Google Payments and Google Fi accounts. Unless otherwise stated, this offer cannot be combined with other offers. Offer and gift card redemption are not transferable, and are not valid for cash or cash equivalent. Void where prohibited.

For AirBnB gift cards: Do not use the pay half later option (selected as default), this will charge the pay later portion onto your credit card even if you have a gift card balance on your account.

Official Announcement on Shipment Status, Promotion, Activation, and Trade-In Questions

Hi everyone,



Many of you have reached out with questions regarding your recent orders, so we wanted to try and save you some time with this post. Please see below for clarifications related to order shipment status, our recent promotions, activation issues, and trade-ins.



Delayed device shipments and notifications

If you're wondering when your phone will arrive, rest assured that you'll receive an email with the details of your delivery date. Please note that unfortunately Fi Support does not have any additional information on your shipment, so you do not need to reach out to Fi support for additional details. Once you receive your order tracking number, this will be your best indication of package delivery date. We will always update you with any changes to your delivery date via email. Thank you for your patience.



Price protection for Black Friday promotion

For those of you that purchased a device as a part of our Black Friday promotion (on fi.google.com: November 23rd - November 27th; or on store.google.com: November 22nd - November 27th) and attempted to contact us on November 28th to receive price protection-- this will be honored (even if you weren't able to speak with Fi support directly), so long as you satisfy the activation, service, and longevity terms of the Travel on Fi promotion.



You do not need to contact us to receive price protection. We will be sending out an email to all applicable customers within the next week confirming this.



Activating your 'Compatible with Fi' device

Check out our help article here about activating your new device on Fi.



Wondering about your eligibility for the 11/28 Travel on Fi promotion?

If you were eligible for the Travel on Fi promotion and successfully completed a purchase on fi.google.com or store.google.com, you should have received an email confirmation from us today.



Please note: This email contained outdated information regarding trade-ins. Please see below for the updated information.



Trade-ins and the Travel on Fi promotion

If you initiated a trade-in alongside a device purchase on November 28th, you do qualify for the Travel on Fi promotion. You can redeem a travel gift card in the amount you paid for the device, excluding taxes, which is the phone price. You'll get your trade-in value as a Fi credit, in addition to the travel credit.



Please note: This answer has been updated from our previously posted FAQ. We heard your feedback and apologize for any confusion this may have caused.



---

Additionally, we know you may have tried to contact us recently and we want to sincerely apologize if we weren't able to chat with you directly. We've been experiencing much higher volumes than we're used to, so we appreciate your patience.

We always want to make sure we're doing the right thing, so we're working hard to address your questions as soon as possible and make sure it doesn't happen again.



- Kelly on behalf of your Fi Family

from newtonfb :
NEW GV numbers or numbers not created before 8/28 DO NOT qualify. Even though the green checkmark shows up, you wont get promotion. I just chatted with Fi support. Dam.

FAQ from johnsapples119:
  • If you are new to Google Fi, you need to port in a phone number that is active and was created before 8/28. Yes, Google can determine the date you last ported your phone number over and how long it has been active for. If your # hasn't been active since before 8/28, they can see that and will have every right to deny your reward. If you do not port a number, they will have every right to deny your reward. You can check your number for yourself @ https://apeiron.io/lrn (see "ported_on_date")
  • Tango gift cards do not expire and are 1:1 (1 tango = $1)
  • If you are an existing Google Fi subscriber, you just need to purchase a new phone to be eligible
  • If you pay upfront in full for the phone, there is no hard credit pull. If you finance the phone, there is a hard credit pull.

oh man. just look up SD and see hoops we jumped last year to get a solid deal
just basic few steps - buy pixel at verizon (hard pull) with an instant 200 off. get a sprint buddy to give referral for $50. then repay at VZn. immediately move to new line at sprint (2nd hard pull). stay with Sprint for 3 months and get 250 for Pixel 2 XL. then use any credit union rebate form and wait for months to get $150. trade in your phone at purchase to get up to 200 back at Target/Verizon. was insane man. like 11 steps. two hard pulls. This... this is nothing for me
From https://www.tangocard.com/terms-of-service:
1. A TANGO CARD Never Expires
2. A TANGO CARD has No Dormancy or Maintenance Fees
3. TANGO CARD value (Tango Dollars) are spent/redeemed at www.tangocard.com
4. Tango Dollars can be used to select retailer gift cards; and/or
5. Tango Dollars can be used to make a non-profit contribution; and/or
6. You can opt-in to receive regular emails reminding you of your gift card balances and reminding you to use your Tango Dollars. You can manage and organize all of your gift cards here. You can directly connect to any merchant's gift card website to shop online just by clicking on a gift card you have recorded in your account.
I asked rep my self during chat. Then, being cautious, signed in from my husbands gmail account and asked a different rep. Both reps said google voice numbers held from before the date listed in the promotion do qualify for the promotion terms. However, why not ask chat yourself - then you can have a permanent copy emailed to you that references your specific account should you have any problems getting the gift cards

Terms are here at the bottom https://fi.google.com/about/device-promo-terms/

There are a few restrictions about porting in an active number as well as keeping service active for 120 days. Works for airbnb, delta, hotels. Com, and southwest airlines

Don't think it's limited to the LG devices only. I tried clicking on the other phones offered by Fi. Same offers on the pixel 3/3xl

Correct. Also, Project Fi is now officially Google Fi. Those not seeing the new branding is likely due to the browser cache

This seems like a good deal for those who travel a lot.

Today only, purchase any phone and travel on us! Mix and match your choice of gift card(s)* equal to the phone value.

Already have a phone you love? Bring your phone to Fi and get $200 Fi service credit.
*Options include: Airbnb, Delta Air Lines, Hotels.com and Southwest Airlines

How exactly do they know how long anyone's been a customer of another carrier?

What's the cheapest plan for 4 months? $20 talk and text without using any data?

Since they allow Google Voice, this seems too good. Are these phones unlocked and can be used on another carrier like T-Mobile after the 120 days?
