Now some have also learned that April will bring a rate increase as well.
For existing customers, the change is scheduled to begin April 24.
What’s unclear is just how expansive the “limited capacity” areas are.
Do they correspond to all “waitlist” areas on the Starlink map?
Similarly, we don’t know how many customers should expect their monthly rate to decrease.

CNET contacted Starlink for comment on these changes but hasn’t yet heard back.
Even taking the price increase into account, Starlink is still more than competitive in the satellite internet space.
That’s much more expensive than Starlink, even with the pending increase.
There’s another element in Starlink’s favor too.
Customers who are unsatisfied with the service or the price increase can cancel without penalty.
If they cancel within the first year, they’ll get a partial refund of $250.
