"I've reviewed your query and understand that you are concerned regarding the eligibility of the Travel on Fi promotion. I'll certainly help you with the information.
I'd like to inform you that you can use physical sim using a different service provider and switch eSIM to physical SIM to use the services. Not to worry you'll still be eligible for the promotion by switching the SIM and using the other provider services. Please use this *#*#SWITCHSIM#*#* code to switch from eSIM to physical SIM or vice versa.
Make sure the Fi service is not paused for more than 7 days or cancelled within 120 days of activation, the value of the gift card will be charged to your Google Payments account to match the purchased price of the device.
I hope this information helps.Please feel free to contact us for any other concerns. We are here 24/7. You can contact us via Phone at 1-844-Talk2Fi, Chat or reply to this Email. We'd be more than happy to help you.
Thanks,
Abhishek

Perhaps this means you can use physical SIM from another carrier provided you do so than fewer than 7 days? <shrugs>
