The 30-day S22 deal is still available. If your current Fi phone hasn't finished its terms yet, you will need to use the trick of starting a new membership using a BYOD Fi SIM before ordering the S22 as an existing member. Read the details in this thread:
https://slickdeals.net/f/16215670-samsung-galaxy-s22-with-google-fi-starting-at-299?page=87#commentsSection

I have sold two of the Fi S22 I got. Will be selling another one soon. I will sell the P7 after it finished its terms. I am using the S22 I got in May.
May I ask where/ which site you use to sell ? I am planning on reselling my P7 pro.

I sell to one of the resellers (Trademore, Gizmogo, WeCellTrade). Some people sell on Swappa, Craiglist, Ebay, Facebook, etc but I don't use them.

Since a few of you asked, here's my write-up about the Tracfone Rewards program. If someone thinks it's off-topic, just say so and I won't post anymore about it.

* Earning Points:
You can earn points with different activities: create a new account with a referral code, refer people, add a new TF line to your account, play games, watch short video ads, post on social sites, etc. I'll talk about referral and adding new lines, because they earn lots of points. The other activities earn very small amounts (5 to 100) and aren't worth doing.
- Being referred: when you create a new account using someone's referral code, you get 5000 points.
- Referring people: your 1st referral earns you 5000 points; 2nd - 4th referral: 6000 points each; 5th and after: 7000 points each. Tracfone used to give 12,000 points for the 5th referral and after.
- Add a new line to your account: currently 7000 points for each line AFTER THE 1st LINE. There was a promo from Oct through Dec last year that gave 10,000 points for each new line. The 1st line is considered the "anchor" line and can only earn points for being referred. You can add up to 4 new lines (2nd to 5th) to each account and earn points for them.

* Redeeming Points:
- Each point is worth 1c when redeeming for airtime cards or Data: 1000 pts for 1GB, 1000 pts for 500 minutes, 1500 pts for a $15 time card, etc.
- You can redeem points for a discount code to buy phones on Tracfone web site. I think this is what most of you are interested in.
. 6000 points = $50 code
. 11000 points = $100 code
. 14000 points = $150 code
. 17000 points = $200 code
. 20000 points = $300 code

Most people save up 20,000 pts to get a $300 code. With it, you can get a brand-new iPhone11 ($250) for free or two refurb iPhone11's ($165) and pay the overage with your credit card or Paypal. There used to be refurb iPhone XRs ($99) but I haven't seen them for a while. There are other Android and iPhones on TF web site also.

NOTES:
- Points earned are pending for 60 days and become available for use on the 61st day. Your account and ALL lines in it must be kept active during that 61 days.
- Don't make any changes to your lines (changing number, changing phone, etc) while the points are still pending.
- Most refurb phones require an airtime card purchae with it, and you cannot use points to pay for that airtime card.
- You can go to Howard Forums https://www.howardforums.com/foru...fone-Net10 [howardforums.com] for more details or ask questions. I'm very active on that forum.
- Tracfone web site can be glitchy and sometimes you don't get the points you should. Only do the TF Rewards things if you're mentally prepared to deal with their poor Customer Service. You've been warned.
The problem is that the whole get 10K points added per device/line to your account is gone by now, right?

It got reduced to 7000 points per line, which it was before the special 10K promo from Oct to Dec last year. It's still not a bad deal though. If you use 3 $1 TF BYOP SIMs (with 3 TF compatible phones), and ask a rep to add them to your account (that already has an anchor line) to make sure there are 7K pending points for each SIM. Then activate each SIM with a $20 90-day Basic time card. Your total cost for the 3 SIMs and 3 time cards is about $70 including taxes. After 61 days, you'll have 21000 points. Redeem 20K points for a $300 code which can get you a new iPhone11 ($250) and a cheap ($50) phone. Not a bad return.

I forgot to take a note of the tracking# before sending my trade in device. Is there any other way to track it? It's been 10 days since I sent it and no update so far.

Order: 2 Pixel 7 s with two iPhone 8 trade ins(separate accounts).

Below is True for both orders:

Bought: Dec 20th
Activated: Dec 25th
Trade in Kit received: Dec 22nd.
Trade in shipped : Jan 4th
Trade in delivered: Jan 11th (USPS: Your item was delivered to an individual at the address.)
Trade in received email: Jan 17th.
Trade in accepted and refund of $149 issued email: Jan 17th.
Credit card showing pending refunds: Jan 17th.
Device passed inspection and $149 reimbursed to you check marks in FI Portal: Jan 18th.

Just need to stay active for 37 more days. I am not getting good reception in my house with google Fi, so probably I will go with ATT prepaid $300 for 12 months deal after 37 days on my iPhone 12. And I am so used to iPhones, androids are just not doing it for me.

This was a good deal to get rid of our old iPhone 8 and get a couple of pixel 7 to test if we were ready to switch to android. Well, they will be given as gifts now.

Wanna trade your Pixel 7 after it has met the required service days for an unlocked new-in-sealed-box iPhone11 (black, 64GB) ? I'm an Android phone user and don't care for iPhones.

You don't need to use the phone, just keep paying the bill. I have a 120-day Fi S22. After activating it and making a few test calls/texts, I turned it off and put it back in the box. The countdown continues. Now 18 days left.
I got the Pixel 7 Pro and activated with eSIM. If I plan to sell the phone do I need to hold onto it until the required 60 days is up? If not I would just keep paying the bill, delete the eSIM, and sell it now. Thanks

The main risk of selling the phone before it completed its term is if the new owner activates it with Fi service. That COULD cause problems for your promotion discounts. Also, I don't know if deleting the eSIM also deactivates it. One forum member reset his P7 and had to download/reactivate his eSIM. Someone posted that you can choose not to clear the eSIM when resetting the phone, but the new owner probably doesn't want the eSIM already occupied/activated.

Can you post a screenshot or description of what you see when you log into your Fi account using a computer, click on Billing-->Fi Savings-->In progress?

I just checked mine and it looked normal.

I'm such a tech noob. Not sure how to insert the pictures . But on PC if I got to google fi - billing - Fi savings all I get is the
Credit balance $0
Total credit earned $0
Total credit used $ 0
That's it. No more days count down or refund progress. Should I give the CSR another call or leave it as is? I'm really confused as in is this a good thing since maybe I don't have to wait no more 60 days ( as long as I get my refund ) or a bad thing Idk
