Yesterday, Google’s Project Fi MVNO just got a lot more interesting. They beefed up their plans for heavy data users to make a more or less an unlimited data plan option. This is thanks to the new Bill Protection.
This new feature lets you cap your $10 per GB data bill at $60 per month. Then add $20 per month for unlimited calls & texting for an $80 per month unlimited plan. Before this, you had to pay $10 per GB no matter what and would get costly for heavy data users. Bill Protection will apply to both individual & group users on Project Fi.
Beware! There is a data cap BTW. It’s at 15GB of data per line per month. Go above that and you will get slower speeds. Like really slow speeds. Like down to 256kbps kind of speeds until your next billing cycle. However if you’re someone like me who burns through like me, this will still get costly. I’ve done as much as over 50GB of data in a month & a 18GB minimum.
The Bill Protection is still a welcome adjustment. Is this good news for you Project Fi users or you don’t care?
