    Nature of Complaint: Problem with a Product or Service Complaint Details:My Starlink service was suspended without a clear reason. I opened a support ticket (TIK-*******-*****-57) to resolve the issue.On July 4, 2025, a support agent named ****** asked me to answer 9 detailed security questions to verify my account. I provided complete and truthful answers to all questions and supplied all requested documentation.Instead of reviewing my response, Starlink support began closing my tickets with a generic, templated reply stating that they have already provided guidance and will not take further action. My answers and evidence have been completely ignored.I then created a new ticket titled "Formal Complaint Regarding Handling of Ticket TIK-*******-*****-57". This formal complaint was also ignored and closed with the same template response.Starlink is failing to provide adequate support, is ignoring customer-provided information, and has suspended my service without providing a valid reason, despite my full cooperation. I request a full review of my case by a senior manager, a specific reason for the suspension, and the reinstatement of my account.

    I can not connect the starlink internet to the rouku device. The rouku is updated. The rouku will let me use a cell phone as a hot spot to connect it. I want to use the starlink internet like I have been using. I've unplugged the roku to let it reboot. It still won't connect to starlink.

    I put in an order for a 45m cable on the Starlink website on June 17th at 6:32pm Eastern time. Shortly after placing the order 6:38 pm I successfully cancelled the order on the Starlink app and confirmed on the website. On June 23rd I noticed that I still had a charge that was approved on my credit card for ******. I opened a support ticket with Starlink (TIK-5384447-75448-61). I received a reaponse telling me to reply if my order was in correctly charged and I sent 10 responses over the past 3 days with no response or resolution. I tried opening a new ticket and still have not heard back. I tried sending an email to ************************************************************ and received an automated response to open a ticket with Starlink support which I already had. I currently have an investigation at my credit card company to attempt to resolve the matter. All I want is my money back. Thats it. I never received any product and nothing was shipped to me. I have confirmation that the order was cancelled is the app.

    Spoke with a customer service representative by the name of ***** and ordered the StarLink Unit, discussed and agreed that I wanted the ********** Package. When I received the unit and attempted to set it up, ***** had set it up for Residential. So went to my online account and changed it to ********** Package. Immediately I was charged for the ******************* Package for $143.88. I called numerous times to speak with ***** and left messages and have not received a return telephone call. I paused the service until going camping on June 7th and un-paused it. Immediately again I was charged for the ******************* Package for $145.40. When returning from camping, I paused the service again, but it indicated that I had service until July 3, 2025. I have called to speak to ***** numerous time again this week and he has not returned my phone call. I spoke with a representative Monday, June 16, 2025 and was told that I would be credited the charges. As of today, I have not been credited the charges. I called and spoke with another representative and was told he didn't know who I spoke with but I would not be credited the charges. The telephone numbers that I have been calling is ************ and *****************-943-6242. The charges are from Hawthorne Starlink in **********.

    I was a Starlink customer who cancelled their service on or around 6/15. They claim that it was good through 6/30, however the service cancelled immediately. I was fraudulently denied the last 15 days of the service. Despite contacting support I received a call WAY after normal business hours I was unable to answer and several more where I was dialed and hung up on with no connection to the representative.

    Had Starlink service at our old home at ********************************************, upon selling the home we discontinued service which ended on Thursday May 22nd, 2025. Spoke with ***** from Starlink and he transferred the account from my name into the new owners name. I have now gotten two auto withdrawal each for $50 from Starlink after our discontinuation of service. I have called Starlink and they said they cannot help me because I dont have an account with them, despite me providing the account number. ***** recommended that I put a stop charge request through my bank account for each charge, but my bank charges for stop charge requests which means 1. I dont get the full amount back and 2. It does not stop future auto withdrawals. I have spoken to Starlink representatives multiple times and they are insistent that they cannot help me. I would like to stop all future unauthorized charges as we do not have Starlink service and would like to be refunded the 2 $50 charges (on 6/16/25 & 5/23/25).

    I own and pay for Starlink services. I am not receiving the service that was agreed-upon when paying for the contracted agreement. There is a breach of contract and consideration to the fact that when reaching out to support, I do not get support I get harassed its taken five days and still have not gotten any help just more harassment technicians do not know how to read and jump to conclusions. I want to resolution and to be contacted by the company like *** requested multiple times now I also wont mention the false advertisement on advertised speeds to paying customers as well as the false speeds inside your home

    After being a Starlink customer for the past year and having already paid for the hardware and installation, Starlink had made a complete change to the internet plans they provide. Mu wife and I work from home and use a lot of data and had paid for the business plan and were happy with it. They now have made it unusable by giving you 50g of data for the month for $65. We used that in two days. No we are left with nearly unusable data for the rest of the month. What am I supposed to do for work the rest of the month? This is a bait and switch. Something needs to be done. Now if I switch I will have to pay for the hardware and installation of another provider. We should get the hardware and installation cost refunded and be able to cut is with this greedy untruthful company. Whats next from them?
