Why I LOVE Google Fi Wireless & Who Should NOT Use Google Fi

Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creator evaluates Google Fi Wireless, specifically focusing on the Unlimited plan for frequent international travelers. He highlights the service's ability to provide connectivity in over 200 countries, noting that he has successfully used it in 64 different nations. The creator emphasizes the convenience of the service for cruise passengers, explaining that while ship Wi-Fi is separate, cellular reception often remains available near ports and private islands. He details the benefits of the 50 gigabyte data allotment, which includes hotspot capabilities and the ability to use multiple data SIM cards without extra charges. Additionally, he notes that Google Fi does not have an agreement with expensive maritime cellular networks, preventing accidental high charges while at sea. However, the creator provides several warnings for potential users. He explains that the service is not intended for permanent international living, as users must return to the United States at least once every 90 days to avoid service deactivation. He also warns that the service must be activated on a US network and concludes by describing the customer service as poor and lacking physical storefronts for in person assistance.
