I have placed order for the router they charged me $8 extra for pay small small , remaining the Starlink with its card issues.

Dude/dudess you said Amazon was offering between $25 - $31 per month payment plan for the routers.
Then later you don't do monthly payments but ShipToNaija
and then they asked for $8 more for "pay small small (installments)".
Who's your supplier angry angry angry

You should have ordered from Jumia or Konga.

I was scared of the activation issue, did not see Konga or Jumia on their list of authorised resellers. And those who bought from Konga or Jumia have not stated if they experience issues or not.
Re: My SpaceX Starlink Internet Experience In Lagos, Nigeria by Ayomipoe(m): 3:12pm On May 01
It won't take that long. Ma 4.
And I think your fears are valid. People are having issues adding their cards to it.

Jumia and Konga are both listed under Authorized commercial retailers, not distributors, that's why you didn't find them on the distributors list.

Ah! We are in the same shoes. Or formerly in the same shoes lool.
Airtel does not work anytime after 6pm, what I realized was that there is a correlation between when people are at home and the network speeds.

I kept running into issues where I would have download speeds of 14KBps, and their support would tell me to restart my router. I fled for my life.

There's no direct link to the retailer page. Visit the above support page you pasted up there. In the search bar to the left, type Jumia or Konga, then search. You will see all the retailers listed. Now, click on any of them to take you to their page.

I haven't been able to make payment yet.. For your case after your visit starlink.com/activate then put your kit number and continue as new user and follow the rest of the process.. If you are able to make payment with any of the Nigerian bank card do well to let me know so i can also activate my account.. My device is just lying there for the past 1 week


I later paid using my gtb mastercard.

I don't think you can cancel once the order has been updated with an estimated delivery time.

Starlink refund is instant. The delay in your fund reflecting in your account is from your financial institution. I know this because I have done RMA(Return Merchandise Authorization) twice for Starlink kit and refunded instantly. I have also cancelled a deposit for kit and got refunded instantly. If your bank is effective, it shouldn't take more than a business day.

By the way, why is your total refund #500,700?
