Be careful as Fi wants the number you ported to be on this phone to get the $600 discount. They check nightly and they find out the number is on other phone then they will charge the $600 on your CC after 4 months. I got the Pixel 6 when it was for 399 and used the Fi SIM on my Essential PH1 and got a notification that Promo guidelines not met and they would charge the discounted amount to my CC.

Many of us got this deal not to keep GFi but to get the phone cheap accounting for the 4mo usage and terminating after that. Getting an unlocked S22+ for less than $500 total with no trade-in. No complications.

Leave the GFi sim in and use your regular service via the eSim as the primary since it comes unlocked. The Google Fi app shows the countdown timer to 120 days and them you port your number back to Google voice.

No need to make it unnecessarily complicated.

Unless you live in a State without tax and fee you will NEVER get $20 a month

More realistic is somewhere between $23- $26 which end up to $92 - $104

I say S22+.

S22 has battery life issues.
S22 Ultra is too think and big. Unless you need the note pencil feature or the Super Zoom cameras it's not worth it.
S22 has zero battery life issues.

The number transfer took 3 weeks, so I requested to get a temporary number to use during the porting progress, which triggers the invalidation of the rebate.

Yes. It has pretty generous service internationally like Tmo with free data, SMS, etc.

That plus the bloatware and tons of wasted space on the OS (Hello, let me put this GIANT CLOCK above your quick settings) not to mention things you can't customize (all the disabled apps show as quick access apps in the multitasking interface, make this a phone that I hate.
Might not help at all, but I installed Rootless Pixel Launcher and turned off Samsung Pay, and it really made my experience better. (doesn't help with any of your other issues though)

Keep pushing them on it, and don't give up. Their customer service is VERY bad, but they might eventually help.

There's a form on www.reddit.com/r/GoogleFi/ that they just created a few days ago. You can use that to escalate support issues when the normal channels are not helpful. Hopefully they can help you get the issue fixed!

Just to add a data point, I've had pretty mixed results with Fi in the past (used them back when it first launched, then again a few years later, and finally again for this promo), but this time around it was pretty seamless. According to the app, I have 37 days left on my promo period and then I'll be done. Planning to switch back to US Mobile when the promo period is up, but decent service so far with Fi.

As most people know, when you have issues with Fi it can be REALLY hard to get help from anyone. If you do a chargeback on a Google account, I had heard that Google would disable your entire account, so I used a secondary Google account for this just to prepare for a worst-case scenario. But everything has gone pretty well for me. I was afraid to try any of the "throw your SIM in a drawer" tricks so I just played by the rules this time. Really miss having the option to switch to Sprint around here, but being able to switch to US Cellular came in handy a few weeks back during a trip to the midwest.

This is the reason that even at a good price point I can't convince myself to buy a Samsung phone with their garbage bloatware that they force on to people.
I don't think there is a real good choice in phone market besides iphone and Pixel.....

Just my 2 cents not forcing my opinion on anyone so apologies if someone got offended

Was interested in the s22 ultra but it's crazy they force you to get the 256gb to get the same ram the note 10 plus naturally comes with. Was on the verge of buying but think I may hold onto 10 plus and get s23 ultra when it comes out.

If you want the S23 ultra, you can get the 128GB S22 Ultra and then trade in when the S23 ultra comes out. They usually have really good trade in values for the previous gen flagships. As an example, Samsung was giving $1000 for the S21 ultra a month or so ago. They don't differentiate between storage levels, so if you are buying to trade in, just go for the lowest storage capacity.
