I am trying to trade in my S10+ and my GF's s10+ but I can't seem to get the system to allow me to do 2 trade ins. We would be starting a 2 line plan. Could we both do seperate transactions and then combine our accounts afterwards?
Make 1 order. After you finish that, invite her to your plan. It will ask if you want to purchase a phone.

Quote from monkeyass408 :
are they taxing you the on full amount of the phone correct? just wondering cause thats usually the case
in the previous deal, they tax based on amount you purchase, so the order total includes the 5/600 off, you're only taxed on that 3-600 depending on which model you purchase

In Fi app -> Account -> manage plan -> add another person




As it's supposed to. The original fi account manages/pays for all lines, but you'll qualify for this promotion (again) by adding another person/google account
Won't this invalidate the promo as now the new line would be part of a group plan.
There are several posts confirming that group plan will cause the promo to be invalidated.

does it include cracked screen for trade-in Or those evaluated at lower price trade-in?
I have s21 with hairline crack on camera lens on back (front screen and rest of device is in mint cond).

if i get lower trade-in, do they return your trade-in device if TIC is unacceptable or it's one way ticket and device cannot be retrieved?

That's only if you join/merge with another fi account since it invalidates the promotions tied to your own account. Adding users to your account has no affect since your account remains intact.

edit: your scenario is specific when you try to join someone's group plan AFTER buying the phone. since the promo has already been applied to your account, you cannot make any changes to your line i.e you cannot join someone's group plan or else the promo gets invalidated.

if you do it BEFORE, then no problem.

PSA for those who don't understand how horrendous Google Fi's customer service is.

I recently switched 5 lines to Google Fi from Mint. While the cell phone service is similar (since they're both t-mobile MVNOs), the customer service is absolute garbage. To the point that I can't wait for the 4 months to be up to never come back again.

To give one example, we ordered 5 s22 phones. When we tried to port my wife's number to the phone, somehow it got attached to my Google Fi account (so, all the apps, etc thought it was my phone). Because of this, I could no longer port my phone number to Google Fi because my Fi account was already attached to a number. It took two different CS agents literally THREE HOURS to port my number to my wife's Google Fi account.

Then, they spent 30 minutes trying to swap the phone numbers between the two accounts, but it didn't work. So, the CS agent opened a ticket and said that this has been escalated to the "engineering department", who are the only people who can fix this. When I asked them what are the hours for the engineering department, how long an issue like this typically takes to resolve, do they have any way of being contacted, how will they communicate if/when they've successfully swapped the numbers... they literally kept repeating that it's a different department so they do not know any of those answers, and that they, too, have no way of communicating with the department other than to open a ticket.

Since we opened 5 lines, we saved $2500. I would gladly give all of that back to get out of Google Fi. The only reason I didn't return everything is because I can't trust they won't screw up the return.

In our 4 days of having Google Fi, we've had other issues, too, but I think the above story is sufficient.

tl;dr
The service will work as well as any other t-mobile mvno. But if you ever need to use their customer service, prepare yourself for the most broken CS department in all of telecommunication.

My current Verizon phone is broken. I'd like to replace it with the S22+ from this deal.

Does anyone know if, once I receive the S22+, I can swap the SIMs and keep the old phone on Fi for the 120 days and move the S22+ to Verizon immediately? Or do I risk invalidating the deal?

You may use S22+ on Verizon, but not to put Fi SIM in any other phone.
