How to Cancel Starlink and Get Refund

Already ordered Starlink? You can check the status of delivery by signing into your account. Starlink kits are usually shipped within two weeks. Users will receive an email with tracking number of courier so they can track status. The kit will include Starlink, WiFi router/power supply, cables, and base. There will be a manual to help you set it up as well. Download the Starlink app to identify the install location, set up hardware, verify your WiFi and troubleshoot connectivity issues. You can also receive alerts for service related issues.

Starlink is billed on a month to month basis. Users can cancel the service anytime by signing into their account. Generally, billing begins 14 days from the day Starlink kit is shipped. To cancel the service, navigate to the Account page and click on ‘Cancel Service’. To edit and manage payment information, navigate to the ‘Billing’ tab where you can enter new card details.

Coming to return policy, Starlink allows users to return the kit within 30 days. Just pack the box in the original condition and request for refund. Shipping labels will be sent to your email. You will need to print and attach the labels on the outside of the box. Refunds to your account can take up to 10 days after it is processed. Visit the Support page to read frequently asked questions on payment, billing, refund or general troubleshooting. If you are unable to resolve an issue and have a dispute, you can write to [email protected] for help.

Can You Cancel Starlink Internet?

For many, the fact that Starlink comes with no cancellation fees is one of the biggest draws to the service. Many customers who want to trial satellite internet providers, such as HughesNet, find within a few months that it is not what they had hoped for. They then try to cancel and find that their 2-year contract means hefty monthly fines if they cancel early.

This is true for many internet services, satellite and otherwise. Even some cable and fiber companies will require 1 or 2 year contracts that come with fines if you cancel early. Starlink’s cancel any time policy gives customers the ease of mind of knowing that they aren’t stuck with this service forever. If you cancel within 30 days, you can even get refunded for your equipment fee. If you wait longer than 30 days, you’ll get stuck with the $499 equipment fee, but you’ll own it for life.

What this means is that you can turn your Starlink service on and off as you wish. If you’re not going to be home for a few months, you can cancel your service, and then turn it back on right before you return. This is a smart way of saving hundreds of dollars. Satellite internet plans that require a contract make this impossible, but with Starlink, cancelling is much easier and cheaper.
