Google Fi Wireless, the MVNO wireless phone plan brought to you by Google, has recently announced some changes to the pricing of its “Simply Unlimited” plan. The adjustments are set to roll out for new customers starting today, with existing customers seeing changes after April 4th, 2024. Here’s a breakdown of the pricing updates for plans with three or more lines:
– Three lines: The cost for three lines on the Simply Unlimited plan will increase from $80 to $90 per month.
– Four lines: Accounts with four lines will see a price increase from $80 to $100 per month.
– Five and six lines: There are also increases for five-line accounts (going up to $125/month) and six-line accounts (going up to $150/month).
If you have one or two active lines on the Simply Unlimited plan, don’t worry – your pricing remains unchanged. Google Fi Wireless is keeping the core features of the Simply Unlimited plan intact, which include:
– Unlimited high-speed data (slows down after 35GB)
– Unlimited calls and texts in the US, Canada, and Mexico
– 5GB of hotspot tethering
– Connectivity for select smartwatches
– Automatic encryption using a virtual private network (VPN)
– Family safety features like spam blocking, location sharing, and contact controls.
The new pricing structure goes into effect for new customers today, March 5th, 2024. Existing customers will see these changes reflected on their first bill after April 4th. Accounts with long-term promotions or device financing agreements activated before March 5th will maintain their original pricing until those commitments end. Pricing remains unchanged for the Flexible or Unlimited Plus plans.
Google Fi Wireless explains that these adjustments are necessary to continue delivering high-quality product offerings and features. This is the first price increase for the “Simply Unlimited” plan since it was rebranded from “Google Fi” to “Google Fi Wireless” last year.
