Waited 12 hours after upgrade to Family Plan to get email with a Spotify link to the free Google Home Mini. Corral is out. Only Charcoal and Chalk available.
They're practically giving these things away... Is that suspicious to anyone. I mean, great deal, amazing deal, I'd totally take advantage of it, but I'm already subscribed, but it just seems like I see these sort of promos happening a lot more.
Coral is out of stock, but you can pick any other color for free. Google has all three colors for $49, and that is the credit amount you receive from Spotify. Process works flawlessly. The entire process, from the initial $0.99 3-month trial to ordering my Google Home Mini with free shipping, only took me about 3 minutes.
Just went through the process and almost immediately received an email with the link for the Google Mini. Yes, the Coral color is out but they're offering Charcoal and Chalk colors with the discount (free). Expected delivery is Dec. 17-19. Thanks, Bens.
Note: you *can* technically get infinite $1 Minis with this, as long as you keep creating new Spotify accounts (and, probably, use a different payment method for each, although I haven't tested using the same one). I realized this when I accidentally set the shipping address for my Mom's Mini to my address instead (I already have a Mini from the promotion), and it still went through.
Now I'm pretty sure Google will figure out something is wrong if they start getting 2 dozen orders of free Minis to the same address, so I wouldn't try abusing it (I'll be hand-carrying the one getting sent to me to my Mom, since stealing from your parents is a one-way trip to the deepest depths of hell), but I figured people might want to know.
"Its been over 12 hours, still no email from google for code. How long does this typically take?"
It's not a code, just an email with a link that auto-applies a $49 discount when you check out with a Google Mini. That being said, I'd check my spam folder, I received the email within seconds of switching to the Family plan.
