No I won't get 5 percent if I buy from Fi but would make it close enough for the initial $200 cashback but that's not anything special, other cards do that with much less spend but I do intend to use the card for Samsung purchases in future.
At the moment I have upgraded my AMEX Blue Cash from Everyday to Preferred. Once I get the bonus I will downgrade again but it gives 6% on streaming and I am pretty sure Fi triggers it, Google Store does.

Any updates?
Very interesting update today. I just received a push notification from my Google Fi app, saying "Only 4 days left to get up to $800 off...". This align with 30 days after I opened my account on 7/8. I am assuming that means I have 4 days left for my "new customer" status. I will update again after 4 days to see if my phone offer changes to instant discount.

I got the same noti if this is what you received "Only 4 days left to get up to $800 off...". But I just opened the account with flex plan last week and paid my 1st bill today.

Did you sign up with any discounts other than a referral code?

What special promo are they talking about here, the new user promo for folds?

Yeah that's the new user promo which involves bill credits and expires on 7th. This deal is more for existing user which ends on Aug 27th.

I guess what we are learning here is perhaps if you don't sign up with ref code it takes more than 21 days to be considered as an exsisting user. The 21 days for exsisting user timeline was all from people using ref code I suppose. I suppose when you did the deal last year you used ref code. Please keep us posted when you see the deal

$536 with S26 ultra on Samsung website + clear case + Buds + Charger for free and then 10% offered as refund via chat support so total would be around $480 . I will stick to samsung dealer.

Here 1199 + tax + $100 around in bill = total would be around 1400 and then selling locally S26 ultra for 650-700 . Out of pocket around $700 and no free accessories. I am good .
thanks i was considering different options but i think i will go this route too. how did you get the extra 10% off and did you use any cashback?

Yes without a recent flagship Samsung phone to trade in this Fi deal is the best you can get right now.
