Under the price hike, three lines will now cost $90, while four lines will now cost $100. Both used to cost only $80. On the other hand, accounts with five lines and six lines will now cost $125 and $150, respectively.

Affected members will start seeing the price increase on the first bill starting April 4. On the other hand, existing members of Flexible and Unlimited plans will not be affected.

Google Fi Cites Maintenance of Services as Price Increases

In a blog post, Google Fi explained that the price hike is intended to "continue delivering high-quality product offerings and features." In 2021, Simple Unlimited was launched. Since then, the service had some ups and downs in its pricing model.

Regardless, the company stated that the Simple Unlimited plan offerings remain the same. This means that users are still entitled to high-speed data, calls, and text within the U.S., Canada, and Mexico.

It also offers full connectivity for select smartwatches and has family safety features like spam blocking, location, sharing, and more. The Google Fi plan also includes 5GB of high-speed hotspot tethering and VPN for private online connection.
