*The 135+ Supported Countries are those countries where Project Fi makes its Services available for use when you are traveling in those countries. Over time, Google may include additional countries within 135+ Supported Countries. Google may also remove countries at any time. We provide a list of the 135+ Supported Countries on the Project Fi Website.
Data Usage. Data usage includes web browsing, application usage, downloading content (like applications, games, etc.), ringtones and similar activities. If applications running in the background use your data connection, such usage will be accounted as part of your data usage. Data usage is available to you as follows:
Prepaid Data:
You prepay for data use in the United States in 1 gigabyte (“GB”) increments on a recurring, monthly basis. The minimum monthly amount is 1GB. After you prepay, your data usage will be deducted from your prepaid data in 1 megabyte (“MB”) increments. If, at the end of your billing cycle, you do not use all your prepaid data and your Project Fi account is in good standing, then we will credit your Project Fi account an amount equal to the difference in the amount you prepaid for data for that billing cycle and the prorated amount for your actual data usage in the United States without going under your actual usage.
Pay-As-You Go:
If your data usage in the United States exceeds the amount that you have prepaid, we will charge you for data you have used in 1 MB increments. For data usage in countries other than the United States, you will be charged for data you use on per MB basis. The applicable rate per MB may vary by country. Charges will appear in the international section of your bill.
International Calling. Wi-Fi calling to the United States is included as part of the Fi Basics without an additional fee. All other calls between two different countries (such as cellular calls placed between the United States and another country and Wi-Fi calls between non-US countries) will be charged on a rate per minute basis. Calls will be rounded up to the nearest minute. The applicable rates vary per country.
About Usage Fees for Services
Google will provide information about our usage fees and rates on the Project Fi Website or the Project Fi Application. The details, prices, and allowances of the Services may change at any time. The type of fees that you incur will vary depending on the Services you choose to use.
Google charge three different types of usage fees for the Services:
Monthly Recurring Fees. Some Services, like the Fi Basics, are available for a monthly recurring fee. For any Services with a recurring monthly fee, those fees must be paid in advance of the month in which you will receive the Services. If a monthly recurring fee for a Service that you have subscribed to is changed, the change will be effective at the next billing cycle, and you will receive notification of the pending change.
One-Time Fees. Some Services, like calls from the United States to other countries, are available for a specific fee or rate per use. Google will bill one-time charges in the next billing cycle following your authorization of such charges. There may be some instances, due to delay in our systems, where the charges appear in a later billing cycle.
Additional Fees. Depending upon the Services used by you, there may be additional charges for calls to or from certain locations, including without limitation payphones and areas within extended calling zones. There may also be applicable charges for any special or enhanced services you use.
About Taxes, Surcharges, and Other Fees
In addition to usage fees, you agree to pay all applicable taxes, surcharges, and other fees.
A Note about Surcharges. Surcharges are not taxes, and we are not required by law to assess them. Google choose, in our discretion, to collect surcharges from you to recover certain costs. We determine the amount of each surcharge, and that amount is subject to change without notice, as are the components used to calculate that amount. Examples of surcharges include, but are not limited to, Federal and State Universal Service fees, and regulatory and administrative fees.
Managing Your Project Fi Account
Billing Cycles. If you are the user of an individual account or the Owner of a Group Plan with multiple accounts, when you first establish your Project Fi account, you will approve your initial purchase of the Fi Basics and prepaid data and authorize automatic monthly charges via Google Payments. Your billing cycle for all subsequent months will commence on the day that you activate the first device on your Project Fi account (the “Cycle Start Day”), except that if the activation of the first device on your account occurs on the 1st, 28th, 29th, 30th, or 31st of any month, your Cycle Start Day will be the 2nd of all subsequent months. For example, if the activation of the first device on your account occurs on March 28, 29, 30, 31 or April 1, your next Cycle Start Day will be May 2nd. Subsequent monthly billing cycles will automatically renew on the Cycle Start Day of each subsequent month.
Disputing Charges. If you believe you were incorrectly charged by us, you must dispute those charges in writing within 180 days of the date we charge your account. You accept all charges not properly disputed within the above time period.
Lost or Stolen Devices. If your device is lost or stolen, notify us immediately by calling customer support. We reserve the right to hold you liable for all charges and fees incurred by your device until you have notified us of the alleged loss or theft and until such time as we can deactivate the device. If we choose to investigate a lost or stolen device, you agree to cooperate in our investigation. Once a device is reasonably determined to be lost or stolen, we may report the device to third party services that track lost or stolen devices and prevent service from being activated on the device.
Suspension and Termination of Your Project Fi Account
In certain circumstances, we may suspend or terminate your Project Fi account in accordance with these Terms. For example, we may suspend or terminate your account if there is a late payment, suspected fraud, or we determine there is a violation of these Terms. We may also suspend or terminate your account if your Google Account or Google Payments account is suspended or terminated. If your Project Fi account is suspended for any reason, you cannot make use of the Services for any purpose except for placing calls to emergency services. When your account is terminated, all devices will be disassociated from your account and may permanently lose the current telephone numbers associated with such devices. Even if you later bring your account into good standing, Google will likely not be able to provide you with the telephone numbers that were associated with your devices prior to when your account was terminated.
