“affected by the price hike will be able to call up to change their plans to newer T-Mobile offerings, but they won’t be able to opt out of this increase.”

I’m pretty they can opt out of the price hikes with a little effort.

I went to Google Fi after being with T-Mobile for 14 years. Google Fi uses the T-Mobile network and I’ve had zero issues since.

Not a fan of (in this context) how Google handles their products. They have a history of killing a product or degrading it to oblivion. There’s even a dedicated site for this. I just don’t trust them to keep this going, so I never went to them. Plus, other MVNOs, like Tello, has unlimited plans on tmo for $25. The same plan on gfi is $50.

For what it’s worth I’ve had Google Fi for eight years. My bill has never increased, and we have unlimited data. I’m on a plan with my wife and her dad and we pay 167 per month for all three lines including insurance on two phones (12/month total). We are in an area with 5G coverage, it speed tests between 100-300 Mbps generally.

Sure they could kill it at any time but 🤷🏻‍♂️
