After you've completed the required days, the promos will be moved from the In Progress column to the Earned column. That's when it's safe for you to cancel your Fi service. In your Fi account, click on Account-->Your Plan. Scroll down until you see Leave Fi, click on it. It will give you options on what to do (cancel, pause, port out etc). Since the 1st bill usually started 2 days after your service was activated, the 61st day should be 2 or more days before the 3rd billing period starts. Cancel promptly on the 61st day and you won't be charged the 3rd bill.

you don't have to since even iphone 8 or SE 2nd gen @$150 will suffice ($600-200-250-150). If you want Pro then iphone 11 is enough since it fetches $330 as trade in ($900-300-250-330).

Quote from RonaldM :
I don't expect the eSIM to affect the promotion at all, but will know for sure once the Fi app updates in the next day to reflect that my eligibility is still good.

(Activated eSIM yesterday and added a physical SIM, set to primary for data)
OK, forgive me, because I am not at all familiar with eSIM's. I would want to use my physical SIM for call, text, and data so the phone can replace my wife's primary phone, and not use the Fi Sim at all. I'm hoping mine arrives with a physical SIM card but that seems unlikely. Worst case scenerio to be certain I will activate it on Fi and then just set it aside for 60 days.

What should work is to activate the phone with Fi on eSIM. Perhaps wait a day or two for the Fi app to show that you've activated the device and any other eligibility requirements. Then, insert physical SIM and turn off the Google Fi eSIM.

OK I'll keep and eye on the thread to see if anyone else has luck doing it that way.

I ordered a Pixel 7 on a current Fi account. No port info was required at purchase. Trying to activate via esim and the only option given is to transfer my number from my Fold 4 to the Pixel 7. Fold 4 still has 49 days to meet promo conditions. Can't figure out how to get a new number. This deal is a bit more complicated without a physical sim. I may end up just returning and wait for the next deal to come along.

You can add a second line even before your first phone arrives.
Your first line will be considered "existing customer".
The second line that you add will be considered as "new customer".

Every line needs its own gmail account.
If every line needs its own gmail account might as well just have them have their own fi account separate from mine right? If the second line is considered a "new customer" then it will need a port in numbercorrect? I thought existing customers could add a line without the port in requirement that is why I was considering doing it on my newly created account.

is there an option to change port-in number if the first attempt is unsuccessful? I am not confident the tracfone port will work 100% (i gave away that device).

I chose the flexible plan, it's $5 cheaper for two lines on the same account with the 2nd line added as a group member on the first line. Two lines are $35 plus tax.
Each line separately in it's account would be $20 + tax for each account.

Thanks,
The promotion details note "Numbers ported in must be from carriers that have calling, voice and data services." but it looks like few SDers managed to get the offer porting-in a GV number.
I am on the fence, I ordered a ting sim card shipped to BB. Should be ready for pick up in a week.
The number should be transferred within 30 days of shipment confirmation Email, so I can wait for the SIM.,but GV port-in would definitely be easier and faster if it wasn't for that fine print making me concerned a bit.

But did you need to have another number to port in for that 2nd line, cause obviously you cant port in the one you just porting in for your first line, or do they let you get a new number.

You can't have two device promos on the same line. No carrier allows you to have two device promos on the line.
If you ordered an additional line, it would have saved you the hassle of returning the pixel phone.

I didn't previously know that a Google voice port in was allowed. Now that it is, you could open a new account and port in a Google voice number, then wait a day and order the pixel as an existing customer.

Thanks for all your answers and attempts to clarify this I appreciate it but unfortunately I'm still not tracking. From what I read as an existing customer your expected to port the number that you currently have with Fi to your new pixel, well for me that number will be the one I just got for pixel #1 (I do intend to use a google voice number for that). I think to be (fairly) certain that it will all work out I'll just spend a little bit more and create a totally separate Fi account for them.

OK so this seems to be getting a little more tricky as it evolves. I guess no really good deal comes easy right. Phone should be here today or tomorrow, my intention is to activate the new Pixel 7 on Fi but use it with another carrier, hopefully by just putting the other carrier SIM in. Fi does not have good coverage in my area (although I may test it out a little to see) Seems the whole eSIM thing might mess up my plan. I have never used eSIM before. Seems there is conflicting opinions on if it is still going to be possible to use a physical SIM from another carrier without potentially messing up the promo discount.

It works on the opposite direction, so I would hope that it works for you as well. Mine arrived with a Fi SIM and I used the E-Sim with another service. I didn't turn off data but made the other sim primary for everything.

My understanding is that an existing customer must move their existing phone number to the newly arrived phone as part of the activation. Then you might be required to keep the number on the new phone for 60 days, but I'm cloudy about that part.
