I purchased a Sony Bravia TV from Graceglory, which exceeded all my expectations! Despite its affordability, the picture and sound quality are outstanding, making it an incredible value. His support was also top-notch—he was helpful and knowledgeable and ensured a smooth purchase experience. I'm thoroughly impressed and will return to Graceglory for future purchases. I highly recommend Graceglory!

@aby4real How far? Any update?
I want to order too but I can't use my address as the service address, please how has it been so far for you?

It got better, it even shows on the app that I'm at my Service Location.

See speed test as of now

The issue is usually from Starlink side, I had similar difficulty with payment, because I attempted to use different card after a failed payment. I was able to resolve the issue by contacting their support team. It takes time tho' but it's the surest way.

Good Morning everyone

I ordered my Starlink device in February but couldn't set it up before I traveled, i just got back now and realized I realized i have accumulated an $84 debt on it because I did not cancel my service plan.

The problem now is that I am trying to make payment of the $84 with the same card I used to order the device but it is not going through. I even used virtual dollar cards but it has been declining too

Please how are you been paying the monthly subscription fee?

Thank you

It finally came in today following delay due to the holiday.
But the speed has not been more than 50MBps. Not sure if it's because it's 2.9 meters away from actual Service address or it's the place I kept the dish. I have tried the 5GHz Wifi as well, no noticeable improvement. Then it's been worse since it started raining this evening. Was even offline for some minutes. Still observing tho'...

georgee:
Expect it to be shipped 9th...i know same in my case... Was shipped 2 days before my due shipping date

It's important you note that if you get the Residential, when it cuts you off, joining again will be based on availability in your area, except you there's capacity in a place near you. But if you are looking at getting it for Backup, you can consider the Roam.

Subscribe to Residential if:

You need the fastest connection possible (e.g., for data-intensive work like video editing)
You rarely travel and mostly stay at your registered service address
You want what can essentially be defined as unlimited data (as RV customers cannot purchase Priority Access)

Subscribe to Roam/RV if:

You need a reliable connection outside of your home address
You want to access the internet while in motion
You need to pause your subscription
You plan to travel abroad and take your hardware with you (RV works on boats, for example)
You don’t need consistent access to high-speed (!) internet
You are comfortable paying up to $150 per month
You need access to a functioning internet connection immediately (since there’s no waitlist for Roam users)

airsaylongcome:
So my question here for current owners, how does this perform on a rainy day? Does it suffer any outages like we have for DSTV?

Secondly, how does the subscription work? I am looking to have it as a backup Internet plan for WFH. I'm looking to leave it unsubscribed until my primary has an outage then I can quickly subscribe and switch to it. Would that be something doable?

Nice one...
Found a location 2.9km away from me, just placed order, they said it will be shipped between 12th to 18th. Fingers crossed.

georgee:
Intend to use it kwaa.. Something I av set up last night and blazing since last night till now... Na on top my car e dey oo.. I am waiting for my engineer mk we mount am for roof..

I think less than 5Km radius from your original address

See speed below

Oh! Now I get it, but how many meters away can you search with and still be sure you'll get connection at your place, or how do you intend to use it?

georgee:
I ordered with a nearby address close to my house in Surulere (The nearby address is not on wait list)

So you were not on the Waitlist at all, if you don't mind, which location did you use to Order?

georgee:
I Pre-Ordered Sunday April 2nd and got it delivered today April 4th

Hello George, when did you pre-order?
Do anyone know the average time on Waitlist before availability?
