Initial set up. Problem connecting

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

Set up the Starlink system as directed. It wouldnt connect to satellite.

After many attempts that failed, I put in a ticket for help.

I was contacted within a few hours and the representative got me online.

Reason for problem: I purchased an extra long cable which was preventing connection. I found I didnt need one so long.

Once I used the cable that came with the system, i connected immediately.

Great customer service. Assured me I made a good decision switching to Starlink.

User's recommendation: Use all parts that come with system when first setting up.

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.

Resolved: No mesh on Refurbished Mini...also what is the password for the network

Updated by user May 08, 2025

Company fixed the issue and I have been provided with apology. I canceled the payment on my credit card.Right away.....they contacted me and emailed me a return label.Starlink is great when it works and really bad when it does not.

Original review Apr 23, 2025

The app states a WiFi password as WiFi *****. That does not work when connecting to the Starlink network.

I can see the unit in my WiFi options as I have given it a name. In addition, the update was supposed to happen last night, and it failed. It still states no mesh. I have unplugged it and tried to reboot via the app.

Everything fails.

There is a Mini on my RV, and I want to leave in a week. Do I need to return this and forget Starlink?

Pros:
  • It is great when it works
Cons:
  • It is the only options when on the road in dry camping or no cell

Preferred solution: Full refund

User's recommendation: The standard Starlink on my house worked just fine. The Mini seems to have issues

Resolved: Help center is ignoring me

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

Well, I paid my bill after my account was suspended because I had old payment information. Everything was corrected, and the bill was paid in full.

My service has not been turned back on, and the help desk is completely ignoring me and telling me nothing for several days. I haven't had service in 5 days.

I bought 2 antennas about 3 months ago one of them broke and I called for a replacement under warranty so I was told that needed to pay again for a new one which I did on 4/23 /25

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

I was told they would refund me once they received the old one. I haven't received the new one yet, and when you call, their support number is not working.

They have a very poor warranty department. My house is without WiFi, without an alarm, and without cameras. By now, I should have the new antenna already.

I don't know what's going on. I was told today that they needed another week; no explanation at all.

Resolved: Sign up for service

Updated by user May 15, 2025

Company fixed the issue and I have been provided with apology. I was misinformed by a friend about the monthly charges in our area.

The residential rate I requested from Starlink was never available here, so the information they provided was accurate. I signed up for the more expensive rate.

Original review Apr 29, 2025

Nothing has happened yet. I'm still trying to sign up for the residential lite service, but your site won't allow me to do so when I enter my address.

My friend who lives near me has the $80 plan, so I know it's available at my location (1331 Green Mtn. Dr., Livermore, CO 80536).

Starlink Fraud No Resolution

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

My Starlink account was taken over by a scammer. They got my information by claiming to be customer support to help with the installation process.

Once they had my account information, they charged random service charges and then replaced my administrative rights. I do not have permission to access billing, see my account information, change user status, view customer support tickets, or cancel the account.

Starlink's only customer support is through their website and through an account, so all help requests are going directly to the account hijackers. I cannot get a response from Starlink to close the account.

Have a method to resolve issues that occur do to question that are not answered with the minimum of information that is presented. It would also be nice to have an actual phone number or chat service available for these issues. It's almost like you are expected to resolve your own problems!
