"If the phone's model or condition is different, do you accept its updated value?
If you don't accept, we can't complete the trade-in."
= entirely at their mercy with no recourse
... and if I don't activate within 30 days? Is it 30 day from the shipment date or from the date the phone is delivered and I have received it?
I can see that you have initiated a trade in request. First the trade in kit will be deactivated if you don't activate your new device.
The Pixel 4a device doesn't have any active promotion. That means your trade in kit will be deactivated and you will not get the value for your old device.
The trade in kit will be shipped separately and usually delivers after your new device delivery.
There is no estimated time for the delivery. Once it is shipped, you will get an email and can take 5-6 working days.
when does it get shipped relative to the shipment of the phone? 1-2 days or a week after?
That would be really hard to say because once the shipment is done, you will get an update via email along with the tracking details.
The order for your new device is showing as processing and the estimated time for the delivery is Dec 3, 2020.
The trade in kit is currently showing a pending status and once it is shipped, you will get an email.
We're currently experiencing high demand which is causing a delay of a few days in some of our estimated ship dates.
We're working with our shipping partners to ensure your package is shipped as quickly as possible.
Unfortunately I don't have the ability to expedite your delivery.
You can also check for the order delivery status from the Google store and we also have a team available for order management Google store.
You can cancel your order from the same link which I've shared with you.
If you want to check for the Pixel 4a devices from the Google store, I can surely connect you with the team.

I got 485 for my s10e 128 gb (tmobile)
Moto G power today .. relieved finally to be not part of this deal .. I was trading in for 6s plus and not interested in FI credits

How long did it take you to get the refund after they said they will issue it? Mine said 2-3 days and today is the 3rd day and I haven't got it yet
It took me a week to get it and 2 follow ups with CS
Still not entirely sure they're going to refund the full amount back to my payment method instead of fi credits. I'll have to keep an eye on that yet.

Now I'm not sure if they are having so much demand for the phone or they think this is am amazing deal that I got and don't want to pursue it. Not sure what is happening.
Reasons: Not Factory Reset (yes it was because i had to google how to reset it!) and not correctly listed device. Well weird since i have the receipt from when i bought the phone i was trading in from amazon and its exactly as listed in the estimated value email from google fi. That and the fact the phone said right on the back... s9.
I can only assume since I checked "other" as provider. It was an unlocked phone from amazon.
I got my refund in about a week! I'm very surprised this went so smoothly for me. $250 for a pixel 5, not bad at all

They have been pretty good about making things right.
Here's a spreadsheet which various people have used to track their trade-ins and I'm seeing a lot of successful recourse when the trade-in came back "incorrectly reported phone model"

Or, did you do it once into your phone and past the lock screen?
If you did the first option, it still has what's called FRP (Factory Reset Protection) Which happens to prevent stolen phones from being wiped and re-used this way. For them to consider it factory reset, you had to do it via the Android OS in the settings menus. (Or, employ some advanced trickery by flashing various OS images to the phone)

I was told by the support that if the purchased phone value is less than your trade-in phone value the rest will be fi credit not credit card refund.
To use your fi credits you can purchase another phone and finance it. This way it will be deducted monthly from your fi credits.
