I signed up for my Starlink account. Paid the 99.00.
Been trying to locate the customer service contact.
1... does anyone have the contact email or phone number?
2. Where do i find the add-on accessories for the hardware?

Thanks

"Only LTD Broadband, Charter Communications and Rural Electric Cooperative Consortium won more in total contract values, with $1.3 billion, $1.2 billion, and $1.1 billion awarded, respectively."

What are "these three" doing with .. even more of our tax dollars?

They are land based Internet solutions in the USA.Tax dollars builds most public infrastructure.

But .. what are they doing? Will they be bringing HS Internet to Rural America?

The auction was to incentivize the internet provides to hookup rural customers. Starlink got a small piece of the pie. A traditional internet service provider, LTD broadband walked off with the most, but offered to provide service to the most.

The analogy I would make is to the rural electrification scheme of the thirties when rural coops were paid to get electricity to rural residents.

The $99 Starlink price is just the preorder deposit. When you are eligible, you will get an email letting you pay the balance, or cancel, and to buy options.

All the best,

Peter

If you consider 1/4 of over $4b a small piece of pie.

My Rural Electric Company ran fiber in my area last year and I got connected about 6 weeks ago. I didn't think I would ever have any options other than slow Centurylink DSL before that. The funny thing is that Centurylink got money for improvements also and put a new box down the road but there was no option for increased speed. I would rather see my tax money going to my local electric company than a large conglomerate like CLINK. When I call my local fiber company with questions, I talk to somebody local instead of somebody that has no idea where I'm located.
