Sorry i should have said this is the email that was sent to me. The subject was, "Your Starlink kit is ready!" So i logged into Starlink and processed the order and got another two emails. One, "Starlink Order Confirmed" with an order number, soon followed by, "Your Payment Has Been Processed"

FYI i didn't use the link in the email, just in case it was a scam.

congrats, luck you I'm still waiting and hoping my order will come soon. Did they give you a time frame?

What did you get? I am holding out for the new roadster, but they keep delaying it....

Has there been any more news on the potential "mobile" starlink?

Just the Model 3 SR+. In Québec, we get up to $8,000 cash back on any electric/hybrid vehicle purchased (plus $5,000 from the Federal). Anything above a SR+ (which entitle you to the $8,000) would move it above that $60,000 limit and you loose the $8,000. This makes the other options too expensive.

Everything says pending, no time frame or tracking number yet. I put in my deposit on Feb. 9 and got email to order on Sept 8, so that's something like 7 months, so if that's any indication.....

My order was put and confirmed on the Feb 23rd so here's hoping I get a similar message in about two weeks

I noticed they've made improvements to the Starlink App, as far as scanning for obstructions. I may end up removing a few trees. Also, it seems in this location that the Northern part of the sky is predominate with East/West then less in a Southern direction.

I just checked. Message on my account used to say time frame was targeted for mid-to-late 2021. Now it says late 2021.

For people who have placed an order recently (full $500+ order, not deposit) they have been shipping in a few days.

They are still saying mid to late 2021 in my area.
Mid is almost passed and we are hoping on the late so who knows.

 

[ernemats]

Paid my $99 on Feb 8 still saying mid to late 2021. Sure hope it comes soon our Verizon internet is poor less than 2 mps down

 

[buckeyefarmer]

Mine still says mid to late 2021

We signed up a long time back, don't even remember when. No word. We currently use Verizon with a MiFi, only non-satellite svc available here. Tried satellite years ago, unbelievably poor. Verizon used to be "ok" but has gone downhill over the past three years. Often it is unusable these days, for some hours at a time. Verizon says nothing is wrong....uh huh. Whether we'll ever see Starlink is anyone's guess. If someone sends me a bunch of photos or a five-second video clip, I have to drive to the public library and use their fast connection. Five-mile round trip...feature of modern life.

 

[SylvainG]

Yep, just checked, still mid to late 2021 for me as well.

Can you do that before getting an email from them?

No, you cannot place the order until they e-mail you and let you know there is a spot open in your cell. You would be notified if you have either signed up for beta or placed the $99 pre-order to save a place in line for a spot in your cell. The service is still considered beta, not generally available.

Hopefully they don't send it USPS. Our road is closed and everything via USPS is getting put in a Post Office that has no public access. They say they will delivery it once the road is open. There are two ways to get to our place, and it's just the one that is closed. UPS was able to figure it out, as i got some LifePO batteries delivered yesterday.
