Ta, now to see if it's any better that the alexa
Same. Got one as I can but now worried i'm going to introduce a load of confusion!!
Anyone know how they compare to Alexa?
Top PSA, cheers
Nice one Tenuous. One on its way. Cheers dude. 👍
How do you claim it?
EDIT: Aha, wrong email a/c, sorted now.
Nice PSA! I don't mind being enslaved by GoogleCorp if it's free.
Follow the link from the link. 😀
Nice PSA! I don’t mind being enslaved by GoogleCorp if it’s free.
You’ve heard the philosophy about free stuff and you being the product haven’t you? A statement pretty much written for Google...
That is a great PSA. I have Spotify Premium, just upgraded to Family and will downgrade again as soon as the Mini arrives.
ou’ve heard the philosophy about free stuff and you being the product haven’t you?
I'm going to deliberately mislead Google by loudly talking about products I don't want in the vicinity of the device.
So can I just upgrade to family for a month and then straight back to standard £9.99 a month?!
Thanks for the heads up. Ordered.
The classifieds page will be filing with these is a few weeks. 😂
I've got one thanks, might as well as I've got a family subscription, though I've got a pathological dislike of voice commanded stuff... Probably never use it and sell on... Unless you can change the wake up from O K Google to F U Google...
Cheers
Perfect. Ordered one for son’s bedroom. Will see if it’s better than alexa
Nice one, thanks Tenuous 🙂
Nice PSA! I don’t mind being enslaved by GoogleCorp if it’s free.
That's pretty much my view 🙂
deleted - got it sorted.
Cheers - got one ordered
I refuse to let mega corporations plant recording devices in my home to listen to my conversations and use the data to spam me with subliminal advertising.
What? Free? Oh ok then, cheers 🍻
Brilliant! Nice one. Not sure where ill put it, but can worry about that later...
Thanks!
Thanks OP! Just ordered...
Thanks! Got family so ordered.
This is why I don't understand these speakers being used in the inflation figures… they so clearly will end of as loss leading free (or token price) trojans… we'll probably end up being paid to have them on in the home…
Thanks for the PSA.
Had to sign in as the primary account holder to claim.
Great stuff ..cheers !
Ordered mine last night and already passed on the psa twice so hurry up fellas, it's whilst stocks last...
Ordered, thanks.
Just upgraded and ordered mine, what’s the betting I’m 5 seconds too late?
What’s the cost difference from prem to family
Thanks, just ordered it. £0.00 is a good price!
Cheers!
What’s the cost difference from prem to family
£5 extra - and for that you basically get 6 accounts. Original one + 5 extra.
A no brainer for a family with teenagers! 🙂
“No brainer for family with teenagers”- even when the teenagers are now in their 20s left home/gone to uni but still using home Spotify and Netflix accounts. At what point do I ask them to pay for their own? When I draw my state pension?
Mind you grandma uses the Netflix login too...
Great PSA, thanks for sharing!
Thanks for that, excellent PSA.
Don't begrudge paying for family Spotify anyway as a household of 5, so getting a freebie is ace.
Cheers
just ordered also, love a freebie me! Thanks again
Super, thanks 🙂
Signed up for one.
I'm already regretting it.
Tempted as oldest is getting her first phone for her 11th birthday on Friday so was considering upgrading to Family anyway. Also not sure I really want one in the house though, I'm not even happy with her having a phone! But you can't fight progress, I guess, maybe....
Great PSA, cheers 🙂
"Purchased"
Thank you.
Purchased, thanks for the heads up.
top PSA - as others have said free stuff is a right of passage to enslavement - fine by me..
Had one, got rid of it. But since we already have premium might as well have another and get rid of it too.
Why did you get rid?
if anyone wants rid of theirs ill give you a tenner for one?
Has anyone got theirs yet? Mine was due for delivery today but status has now changed to
Your delivery was delayed. We're working to get it to you soon and will email you when it's on its way
Is this Googles Mint sauce keyring?
Dunno when mine was scheduled to be delivered, but now showing the same delayed message.
Hopefully this won't turn into the great Belkin short fiasco!
@davosaurusrex Found it to have really poor sound quality and notably more flaky than the Alexa we had.
It came free with a Google pixel phone. Maybe they've improved a little now.
I got mine delivered today. Ordered Monday though as picked up the PSA from hot uk deals before it was posted on here.
Just asking ..but was the discount automatically applied at the checkout ..?
Thanks for the replies ..
Don't see any sign of a discount so **** it ..
Just asking ..but was the discount automatically applied at the checkout ..?
Mine did, yes.
Not seeing any sign of a discount ( free) all the way up to entering my card details ..so not taking the risk of being charged £49.00 for something I will have for nowt ..but can live without ..
Thanks for the reply though 👍
Just had a dispatch e-mail - delivery expected next Tues/Wed....
Remember, Genesis is Skynet
it's how it all starts.... 😉
The first one is on sale in the classifieds. That didn't take long.
ours arrived today
the kids can't get it to emit farting noises
disappointed
Mine arrived yesterday.
martin lewis was speaking about how to get it for non-spotify members for £15
Mine arrived today, was able to revert my Spotify membership back to standard before this months payment was taken so all good.
Mine arrived this morn8ng, it's already annoying mrsws in the kitchen 🤣
Mine has just arrived, time to switch my account back. 😏
Did some arrive without email notification?
I'm a premium member and got a 'we will email when available' message when I went on Spotify..
Did some arrive without email notification?
I’m a premium member and got a ‘we will email when available’ message when I went on Spotify..
I don't think I've had anything through Spotify.
I have had an e-mail update through gmail & then i got a despatch notification through Google Assistant, and have now had text from Royal Mail to say they are delivering it.
You should be able to check the original confirmation e-mail and click on an order status link to see whereabouts yours is in the process....
I’ve also had a “been dispatched” email on 24th. I ordered the day of the PSA.

I’m a premium member and got a ‘we will email when available’ message when I went on Spotify..
Same here, when I check getting a 'sorry you cannot redeem this at this time'
Mine arrived today
Ah, just gone back into Spotify. I could then check availability with was available so was then directed to Google.
All sorted 🙂

This is exactly what I did. I'm looking forward to having another thing to shout at apart from the kids, dog and Brexit news on the radio.
Mine arrived today, thanks for the PSA op.
I only have "Hey Google, pull my finger" in my amuse the kids locker at the moment so what other entertaining commands have you got.
I too keep getting the message that I am no able to redeem at the moment.
Is there a way round this??
Big thanks to the OP for this PSA. Mine arrived today. Haven't got a clue what I'll do with it now though...
Ok Google, tell me a joke.
This will keep me entertained for hours! Arrived today, thanks OP!
Haven’t got a clue what I’ll do with it now though
Mine is in the kitchen and generally plays the radio. Or sets cooking timers. The new free one is going in my bedroom to be used as an alarm.
Ours arrived yesterday. By teatime the eldest FledglingOx (6yo) had already figured out he can ask Google how to do his maths homework. Youngest (1yo) is hugely frustrated that his version of "hey Google", which sounds something like "RA RA GA EEEEeeeee", doesn't do anything. Worth the Five Eyes intrusion into our home for this alone.
My 9 year old boy was almost wetting himself with excitement when he realised you can ask Google to "Pull my finger".
If we never use it again it will be worth it for his face yesterday when he asked that for the first time.
It is the only thing/person in my house which listens to me when I tell it to be quiet.
Mine is at Greenford according to the tracking, should be here tomorrow?
The delays are no surprise really I suppose...
Delivery scheduled for tomorrow apparently...
