Ask HN: Sick with Covid in Spain, Google Fi suddenly cuts off my phone service

I was delayed in Spain because of Covid. I evacuated here sick with Covid from Ukraine, just before the war. Suddenly Google Fi cuts off my service, with no warning. I have not received their email. Can somebody help me on HN? I edited out my case ID from the chat, but I can add it.

I see that you are facing issues with the international data connection. I will help you to the best of my expertise. Thanks for the details. Lohitha · 1:33 PM

In the screenshot, all networks that now say Forbidden were available until today 1:34 PM L

Okay. Are you on active military duty or a government employee? Lohitha · 1:35 PM

no 1:35 PM L

Thank you for the details. Lohitha · 1:35 PM

Got it. I have checked the details and see that your international data capability is suspended. Lohitha · 1:39 PM

Why? 1:39 PM L

As per our Terms of Service, Fi must be primarily used in the United States (territories not included) and isn’t intended for extended international use. If you plan to stay abroad, we recommend you use a local carrier until you return to the US. Lohitha · 1:39 PM

I had covid and I was delayed here I have documents that show that I have had covid recently 1:40 PM L

Axxx, I completely understand. I would have definitely helped you with this if there would have been any other alternative options. Lohitha · 1:42 PM

I am returning to the US in 2 weeks: I even had to ask for a stay extension because I am sick. I hope you won't cut off my service because I have Covid? I can upload my doctor's letter and a positive PCR test 1:44 PM L

Unfortunately, we don't have an option to provide exceptions for covid affected persons. I hope you understand. Your international data roaming capabilities are automatically reinstated once we determine that your services (data, talk and text) are primarily used in the United States (territories not included) as per our Terms of Service.
