I'm thinking about switching up cell phone plans. Any negatives?
Does anybody use Google's Project Fi cell phone plan?

yep. if u dont use a lot of data, its perfect. only drawback, you have to have a specific phone. Pixel, Nexus or the new Moto 5. My bill is usually under $30 a month. I hardly ever go over 2gb. And if my bill goes over $45, my job will give me $45 towards.
i've been on it for a year. i left verizon wireless for project fi over a year ago and have no regrets and no complaints at all.
See my previous post, if you don't have one of those phones, you can't use it.
I have a Samsung galaxy with metro pcs. I pay $55/month which includes unlimited long distance to Canada.
Are the phones and prices a comparable value?

The newer Pixel phones are expensive. You can probably get the 1st Gen pixel for under 500. I pay less than 55. If I stay under 1gb, I'm looking at about $25.

Data when you need it
Bill Protection gives you the peace of mind to use extra data when you need it. In months when you use more than 6 GB of data, we’ll cap your charges for calls & texts plus data at $80, and allow you to continue using high speed data for free—similar to an unlimited plan. Bill Protection kicks in at different usage points based on the number of people on your plan, and you can see how it would work for your group here.
If you’re a super heavy data user, you’ll experience slower data speeds in months when you’ve consumed more than 15 GB of data (less than 1% of current Fi users today). But as always, you’ll have the power to customize your plan, and you can opt out of slower speeds by paying $10/GB for your individual data usage above 15 GB.
Never pay for data you don’t use
And here’s the kicker: with Bill Protection you’ll never have to pay for unlimited data in months when you don’t actually need it. If you only use 1.4 GB of data, at the end of the month you’ll pay just $34 instead of $80. So no matter how much data you use, you can save money with Bill Protection every month.
