...Project Fi.
Just switched from T-mo to Project Fi and naturally continued to use Ink Bold expecting to get 5x points.
Sadly no. It does not appear to be a bonus category.
I SM'd Chase and they responded:
"Since the merchant in question was not assigned an
appropriate category, your purchase at GOOGLE *Project FI
did not qualify for this reward."
I sent them a copy of my project Fi bill which clearly showed it was for cell phone and data charges. They explained that Visa is responsible for setting the category and that Chase has no discretion in the matter. I was pleased that they gave me the 5x bonus as a courtesy for this month only.
On the plus side my monthly OnStar subscription does appear as a bonus category.
