Google Project Fi Update & News: Customers Can now Check Their Invite Status for new Wireless Service
Customers who eagerly asked to be added to the Google Project Fi invite list now have a tool to check the status of their invites, according to TechRadar.
Google Project Fi is the next major project for Google. Google will try to offer its own wireless service to customers and keep the price down while doing so.
Interested customers that recently requested an invite to the upcoming wireless service from Google recently received an e-mail that informed them they could now check the status of their invite from the Project Fi sign-up page.
Many customers have tried to see when their phones could be shipped to them and they could start using the service. Some customers are receiving results of three to four weeks or four to eight weeks as the timeframe expected for Project Fi to become a reality for them. However, others are receiving a message that says "We're still determining your status. Check back for updates."
Twitter users have tried to contact Google to find out more information on their invites, but no explanation has been provided by Google.
Even the users who signed up on the first possible day that Project Fi was announced might be getting the undetermined status message. This means that not all invites are being sent out by those who signed up first. Instead, Google might be sending out the invites based on zip codes where they know the service will work.
Google said in the spring that all invites would be sent out by mid-summer and an online tool to check invite status would be coming soon.
The interest in Project Fi is closely tied to its affordability. Customers will receive $20 for unlimited talking and texts, along with Wi-Fi tethering. For $10 per gigabyte, customers can customize a data plan. At the end of the month, customers will get a credit for the unused data.
Many are still waiting for their phones and SIM cards to arrive, but some have already received theirs and are posting pictures of their new Nexus 6 phones.
