Elon: You'll receive your first monthly service bill upon activating your Starlink, or 30-days after shipment, whichever comes sooner. No free lunch.

Make una dey try read and condition, abeg try.

Starlink said 30 days free trial. But if they've read further, it says if you are not satisfied with the service within 30 days, return it and they will process a refund.

I believe the first people to get their kits in naija back in early 2023 when kit was $600, got 1 month free subscription.

This is May 2024 bro. Whether they gave 1yr free in times past is now inconsequential

Calm your soft cheeks.
They give or dem no give? 🙄
This thread is 50+ pages long. It's normal for people to ask since the free subscription was probably mentioned in the first few pages.

Me sef thought I'd get free subscription too when I got mine around July last year.

I wanted to order and I ed I saw something about roaming and residential being different so I wanted to ask since price of the kits is same is it that I can upgrade my plan anytime? And hope moving from my residential address to another place won't affect me?

Take, drink cold water. Oya hold your ears and listen. Funnily, Starlink spells it out just before you add your card,
but trust people not to read the fine prints; typical of Nigerians. if there were any running promos, it would be clearly visible on the site; as the current 440k price slash now. Once again, anything that happened T minus 1 is inconsequential for an adult human with functional thinking capacity.
ibietela2(m): 11:12am On May 18, 2024
After about 1hr+ i have mounted it, and now it seems speed was better on the ground.

Get off your high horse, son. You're not the only one using Starlink not you're the only one using nairaland. This thread is open to Nairalanders and visitors and has influenced a lot of people to get starlink, and they started from page 1, so it's ok to ask those questions before going ahead to purchase.

My Starlink is mounted on the top of my 2 storeys tall tank stand. Used a 10 ft pole 😂
Road clear. Just make sure there's 0 obstruction and you'll get the best speeds.
