Google kills two-year “Pixel Pass” subscription after just 22 months

This is the best summary I could come up with:

When the service launched in October 2021, Google said that every two years on the Pixel Pass would make you eligible for a brand new phone.

but Google doesn't answer its own question, saying only, "We offer the best value of our hardware products and give users the flexibility to purchase their favorite services.

We continue to evaluate offers based on customer feedback and provide different ways for them to access the best of Google."

That won't happen here, though—while new signups are no longer allowed, existing users will be able to finish out their two-year term.

You’ll receive a monthly bill for Google One, Google Play Pass, and YouTube Premium at the current discounted rate, which is visible in the email sent to you on August 29, 2023 with the subject line, 'An important update on Pixel Pass.'

To take some sting out of the move, Google is offering a "$100 loyalty reward credit" for active Pixel Pass subscribers.
