Nothing has happened, but I found the security key. Would really love to have 24/7 LIVE tech support services.

NO INTERNET ACCESS

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Starlink - NO INTERNET ACCESS
Starlink - NO INTERNET ACCESS - Image 2

I am an Australian consumer and I have not had internet now for two days and despite opening numerous tickets for assistance, no one has contacted me to rectify the issue.

To put it simply, I had some hardware issues and couldn't get my starlink to work for a day or two despite troubleshooting. I raise a ticket with starlink who immediately dispatched a replacement unit without any further communication with me for troubleshooting and before that arrived, my equipment was all working again.

I proceeded to send back the equipment that was prematurely sent to me. As soon as I dropped off the equipment at the post office to be returned my starlink account was deactivated before I got home.

Here are my issues:

1. Starlink added the replacement hardware to my account without any other unit becoming active and transferred my service to it

2. My current unit was active and is now deactivated but my account is being paid for linked to a unit that I never installed nor have in my possession

3.

I'm in Australia and you have absolutely no tech support for your customers here

4. Numerous tickets opened and no assistance for over 40 hours and counting

5.

I work from home and having no internet for 2 days now had cost me two days of wages, possibly 3 if it's not sorted ASAP

6. There is no way for me to rectify the issue without Starlink fixing it on their end and it is impossible to get contact from them or contact them

Starlink should not have deactivated an account with an active signal nor assumed and added a unit to my account and transferred my service to it when it's not even active.

The impossibility of having no assistance when it's urgently required has really put me off paying an absolute premium for internet services, starlink is almost twice the price of Australian NBN companies and has recent events highlight a significant failure in how you manage your global clientele.

I can’t get my issue resolved why would I rate y’all as one I would promote

Original review Mar 16, 2025
I needed internet January before college started so I had the girl I was caring for order internet. I told her Id pay for the it.

She said ok. Apparently shes wasnt at all capable of handling any of her own affairs let alone those that involved her and I. She apparently got star link yall took the $281.46 out of my account. She said she called and canceled last month.

And she never received any emails from star link. Honestly I think she deleted every and all emails that had anything to do with star link. I didnt realize how mentally unstable she really was. I am still in school and still have no internet and now I dont even have the money star link took.

Her name is Linda Franske I dont even know the email she wouldve used. It was done January 15, 2025. The phone number she used was 808-769-****. And the card number I used was from my cash app card ending in 3794 Im Petrina Peak this is my card information.

Please just refund my money! Im so pissed off I let my guard down now Im paying the ultimate price.

I only used this once, and it's broken. I need it for a big trip and can't even get someone on the phone.

I need it really badly and now have no choice but to borrow it from someone else. How unreliable!

Cable does not fit into port of dish

Starlink - Cable does not fit into port of dish - Image 2
Updated by user Dec 12, 2024

There may be a manufacturing issue with the standard dish housing. The area around the standard dish port seems smaller than the port which inhibits the plug from connecting into the port. See pic that shows the wide part of the cable port larger than the opening in the housing.

Original review Dec 12, 2024

Need help with exchanging the standard dish because the cable would not fit in the port. Maybe I will get some help within a week or two. Really poor service for customers.

Cons:
  • Extremely poor customer service

Starlink - Being billed for service not used since 1/1/2024

Last year, we received credit for four months not used. Later, you rescinded the credit and charged us again.

Now, you are still charging me, and I'm still not using it!

I'd like to use Starlink because I feel it is superior, but I can't if you keep charging for a service not used. Please contact me and let's get this resolved.

Paid a high price for equipment that doesn’t work. No service. Constantly being charged $120 a month with no service. No humans.

Can't sign in to Star Links app. New equipment was sent to me.

Tried deleting the app and reinstalled it.

Tired of being charged for rarely having service. $700 for equipment and $120 per month.

Can’t setup account

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I can't set up an account and my Starlink. I bought this from a friend that didn't want it.

He cancelled his account associated with the unit I bought! It will not let me transfer it to a new account and set it up in my name!

This is very frustrating when I can't talk to a tech that can help me! Can someone please call me at 907-419-**** and help me out?

I have not received an answer to my question yet, despite failed phone calls and emails to you. I simply want to change my payment date closer to the first of the month.

I would hate to run out of money by the time it's Starlink's time to be paid. Can I please have an answer?

Cant complete set up

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Do not buy anything from Star Link! There is zero, and I mean zero, customer support.

I bought a mini for our vehicle and can't connect to the dish to complete the setup. I submitted a ticket and just got AI responses.

There is physically no human to talk to, to help repair or exchange the product. Now, I'm stuck with a $600 door stop.

All my words, I swear, God is real.

I bought Starlink from a third party. I checked the kit number before they sent it to me.

They shipped my Starlink unit. I received it from cargo, only to find that it already had an existing account. The supplier did not respond to me, until now.

I went to the cargo and there was no conflict with my unit.

I paid for it using my salary of 14 months. I know about Starlink and hope they understand me and give me a good opportunity to use the Starlink kit and to enjoy their great company.

Updated by user Jan 25, 2025

Company fixed the issue and I have been provided with apology. Went through a very complicated web experience only to discover that the issue was their inability to process a payment despite having done so the prior two months.

I received no advanced notice that there was an issue until they paused my service.

I changed the card on file and the payment went through. I did receive a call later in the day apologizing for the piss-poor service - -and negotiated a free month of service.

Original review Jan 10, 2025

An agent called me two hours after I spent nearly one hour trying to navigate their very opaque website. At the end, I was credited for one month of service free of charge.

Sorry Customer Service

Cant talk to a person to get any kind of information. Web site pricing is misleading and no way of knowing what type of equipment you will need to buy.
