Wow great deal. You could use the S20 as a stepping stone to the S21 by trading it in next year. You may even get more than $400 trade in credit.

It's unlocked, but you need to stay in fi for 90 days to get your $600 discount

so if i have a current line that needs to be active for another 22 days, can i purchase this phone via the SHOP button and sit on it for 25 days (when prev promo is satisfied) then activate it on same line? or does activation mean adding a line?
Haven't tried that but would be an interesting approach which might work.

Yea. Forget about transferring over that phone number then. You must fulfill that promotion and use that PHONE for 22 more days. You don't want to get hit with a $200 bill later.

I got 42 more ACTIVE days needed for a Moto G Power phone.... $49 purchase.

If I don't keep that Moto G Power phone active for 42 more days, I will be hit with a $200 bill later.
right. but cant i just sit on this phone for another 25 days until that promo is satisfied, then activate this phone? T&C say activate within 30 days of shipment. Q. is can i activate this phone on the same line (effectively replacing the prev phone) or do i need to add a line?

Why not active the phone first a couple days before 22 day and terminate the old phone line after 22 days?

I'm on vacation right now in the usa. do I have a chance to get this promotion? I will be going in February. Can I leave the 3 months of google fi paid while I use the phone in my country or at least pay it while I use it in my country?

I am not sure. I have never done a transfer with google fi number to google fi number with an active promotion with days needed left. Your experience with google fi is just like me. I would just be careful in not ruining your promo..... I got 42 days left on my promo with $230.26 google fi credit balance. I wouldn't do any transfer over especially because it isn't my daily driver phone number... I wish I could use the google fi credit on a phone purchase but that isn't happening.

Interesting tempting deal.

Exactly why I was thinking of adding instead of new account. But can I close the first line shortly after adding this line? I assume that will bump up the line cost to $20? I only have about $20 fi credit remaining so it's a wash with ref credit on new account
You need to transfer your number or you won't get the discount. Read the terms carefully. I think it would have to be the same line, not a new line, unless you have a number to transfer into Fi for the second line.

Even better deal then. And doesn't happen too often. Hopefully this is how it is for everyone. When I lived in SoCal, this would have saved me almost $60 in taxes. (Assuming $600 discount)
