Thanks. When I go to Cellular there is no SIMs option. Only sim pin or add sim. I did turn off automatic. Seems to be working now but was absolutely maddening. And no clue which step or process achieved it. Tried the stuff on here, online elsewhere, and via chat with Fi. 😩
Glad to hear you got it working though. For what it's worth, I also had a lot of issues on TIM in Italy where I'd have data, then suddenly lose data despite having full signal. I chalked it up to network congestion in Rome, but who really knows. |

If I remember correctly, if you don't have a second SIM or eSIM, it would just show the name of the cellular plan, e.g. T-Mobile.

It’s intensely frustrating. Bc you can’t plan for this and you only discover the problem when you need there not to be a problem.

What type of phone do you have? The reason why I am asking is because a Fi Certified phone uses 3 UK's roaming backend where as an phone like an iPhone would use TMobile's roaming agreements.

Not sure this is still about my issue, but we have iPhones. Tried manual network selection and it didn’t work.

Just an fyi - friends phone had data shut off while on extended traveling. Upon return to the US - phones data was switched back on immediately (no waiting, no calling required).

Thanks for that data point. Could you quantify extended traveling? In particular, could you specify the number days at which data was shut off?

Another of my kids has now joined us in Europe. Can’t get his Google Fi either. Tried all the fixes but nada. His seems to be different though, so I’m hoping y’all may be able to help. His iphone says Google Fi, not LTE or whatever. We can select the local network but it doesn’t connect. I’m going to search online some more but any ideas on why it’s stuck on Fi and how to unstick it?

If someone can confirm...

Let's say my billing cycle starts on the 1st of every month. For four lines, that means $80/mo for Simply Unlimited and $160 for Unlimited Plus. On June 15th, I switch from Simply Unlimited to Unlimited Plus and fly to Europe. Therefore, for the month of June, my bill will be $120 (50% Simply Unlimited and 50% Unlimited Plus), correct? On July 10, I fly back from Europe and switch back to Simply Unlimited. My July bill will be $160, and then my August bill will be back to $80. Does that sound correct? |
