The Google Fiber Fee Schedule describes certain fees associated with the Google Fiber Services that customers ("you") may purchase from Google Fiber Inc. Any purchase and use of the Google Fiber Services described below are governed by the Google Fiber Terms of Service. Any terms that are capitalized below but not defined in this document have the same meanings specified in the Google Fiber Terms of Service.
Equipment Replacement Fees
Your Google Fiber Service may come with certain equipment, including a wall-mounted Fiber Jack or Google Fiber Optical Connector, as well as a selection of devices that allow you to access the Internet (e.g., a Network Box, Google WiFi device, Google Fiber Multi-Gig Router, or similar device), save your TV shows if you have Google Fiber TV (e.g., a Network+ Box or a Storage Box), create your WiFi network (e.g., the Google Fiber Mesh Extender, Network Box or a Google WiFi device), operate your phone service if you have Fiber Phone (e.g., the Phone Box), or stream certain third-party provided content (e.g., the NVIDIAⓇ SHIELDTM TV streaming box). The specific equipment you receive will depend on your Service plan, will be disclosed to you during signup, and will also be shown in your Fiber account.
Regardless of your Service plan, you will be required to pay the applicable Replacement Fee if you lose or damage any of the equipment listed below.

Service Deposits
We sometimes charge a deposit (usually $10) when you sign up for Services. We will only do so if we disclose the deposit to you when you sign up. If we do charge you a deposit, we will credit your deposit towards any fees (other than the deposit) billed in connection with the Services.
Service deposits are non-refundable except in the following circumstances:
-
Your address does not qualify for the Services.
-
Your address qualifies for the Services and we do not connect your address to the Google Fiber network.
-
You cancel your registration before installation.
Construction Fee
Depending on when you subscribed to Google Fiber, you may be responsible for a $300 construction fee. The fee, if applicable, would have been disclosed to you during your online sign-up process.
If you signed up for Fiber 100, 1 Gig or 1 Gig + TV and are subject to a construction fee (which would have been disclosed to you during sign-up), your construction fee will be waived if you purchased that Service for at least one year. If you cancel that Service or change your plan to Basic Internet (not available at all addresses) during the first year, you will be required to pay a portion of the $300 construction fee (pro-rated based on the number of months remaining in the first year of Service).
If you signed up for Basic Internet (not available at all addresses) and are responsible for a $300 construction fee, that fee is payable as a one-time $300 fee or you can pay in 12 monthly installments of $25. If you chose to pay in monthly installments and change your plan during your first year of service to Fiber 100, 1 Gig or 1 Gig + TV, any outstanding construction fee balance will be waived as long as you do not later downgrade to Basic Internet.
In certain circumstances, you may be subject to additional fees, which will be explained to you before you schedule your installation.
