    Canceling and reinstating google fi?

    I got my google fi invite waiting in my inbox. I am on the fence about actually using it. I have an upcoming international trip so I figure it would be the perfect time to test the intl data roaming features. I currently have a GV number and don't want to lose it. 1. If I switch to Fi and...

    Verizon raising the price for Unlimited Data Plan by $20 after November 15, 2015

    This is what I don't quite understand. I thought I understood that the subsidy is built in. I am paying $60/mo now for 450min+unlimited data. $30/mo is for the unlimited data. That was the price that allowed me to get a subsided phone. I remember when they stopped offering unlimited, the...

    Phone compatibility with Fi

    Thanks for the additional details. My parents still don't have a smart phone and want to get one (between the two of them) but also travel on intl cruises alot. I was thinking project fi might be perfect for them. They don't care about switching so much since they don't travel domestically...

    Verizon raising the price for Unlimited Data Plan by $20 after November 15, 2015

    Since I usually use less than 2GB it doesnt seem like a good deal considering I could switch to ATT prepaid and get 4GB for $55/mo. I don't think T-mobile would meet my domestic needs, but Project Fi is suppose to combine Tmobile and sprint. I dont know if the two networks added together is...

    Phone compatibility with Fi

    My question would be what "full functionality" means. In your post, you got errors because of the wrong android version not supporting the app. That can be resolved by upgrading the OS (ie custom rom). You mentioned that calls/txts worked but I wasnt clear on data. Were you on wifi or did...

    Verizon raising the price for Unlimited Data Plan by $20 after November 15, 2015

    So I've been on unlimited for years. I last upgraded just before they stopped offering unlimited. I've had an upgrade available for over a year so I've been paying the subsidy price month-to-month. I typically only use a little less than 2GB/mo without ever using WIFI. However, sometimes I...

    Phone compatibility with Fi

    If I recall, Tmobile LTE uses (Bands 2,4, 12) and Sprint LTE uses (24,26,41) Then wouldnt the Huawei P8 or Moto G (3rd gen) work with Fi? They support all those bands. With Verizon raising the price of unlimited, I'm looking at my options. Project Fi looks like a nice option except I don't...
