It does not. The $20 a month is text and phone. Data is billed at $10 per GB but on a prorated basis, so if you use 1/2 a GB in a month, your data charge will be $5. Answer from Peterfield53 on reddit.com

Flexible Plan
You pay only for the first 6GB data so $60 and then the data is free. Of course, you pay the per line price in addition to the data cost. So for 1 line, if you go above 6GB, you pay $80 and still get high speed data up to 15GB. After that it’s throttled. More on reddit.com

What plan are you using?
You do realize Flexible is $10/GB and has a 15GB high speed cap? At your current usage, Flexible will cost you $80 + tax per month. Also, internet will be practically unusable for likely the last 25% of your billing cycle. I use Flexible (1-3GB per month including iPads) and switch to Unlimited Plus when I know I'll need extra data. More on reddit.com

How I worked around the flex plan being so $$$ per GB of data
I'm thinking of doing something very similar. However, I was thinking of using a US mobile data plan which is based on the Verizon towers and therefore if the T-Mobile towers were affected, one of my two carriers might be operational ( hurricanes, outages etc)l. And I think the costs are pretty close. Did you look at US Mobile before you added Tello or was there a preference for that carrier and what was it? TIA More on reddit.com

What happens when you go over on a Google Fi data plan?

Google’s Flex plan charges you $18 for talk and text, then $10 per gig. This could get out of hand fast, but Google saw that coming. Once you’ve used 6GB of data, the rest is free. As for the unlimited plans? If you blow through your high-speed cap, you’ll continue getting unlimited data at potentially slowed speeds.

Google Fi Review: Budget-Friendly Wireless with Smart Features | WhistleOut
3 days ago - Unless you added more than one line, the average person would have been wise to stick with Google Fi’s $50/month Simply Unlimited plan, which included 35GB of premium data, a 5GB hotspot, free talk and text from the US to over 200 destinations, and unlimited data, talk, and text in the US, Mexico, and Canada. I had this plan for 6 months and never maxed out my data or hotspot. (More on this later). ... Although less popular, the Flexible plan is still great for those with low data needs, such as grandparents, or for students traveling and using Wi-Fi for most of their internet needs.
