It says, \u201cEffective 8\/24\/2022, Starlink is reducing your monthly service fee to \u20ac105.\u201d Well, ok.<\/p>\n<p id=\"ebdqRE\">The price cut is welcome at a time when everything else is getting more expensive due to inflation. \u201cThe price reduction factors in your local market conditions and is meant to reflect parity in purchasing power across our customers,\u201d reads the announcement. <\/p>\n<div class=\"c-float-right\">\n<aside id=\"63IqC0\"><q>The situation in the US is less clear<\/q><\/aside>\n<\/div>\n<p id=\"Awvu6i\">Others are reporting similar discounts in locations around the world. For example, on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/Starlink\/comments\/wx14dp\/oh_hello_starlink\/\">Reddit<\/a> a person in the UK reports a reduction in their monthly fee to \u00a375 (down from \u00a389), Mexico to $1,100 MXN (down from $2,299 MXN), and Germany \u20ac80 (down from \u20ac100). Users in Chile and Brazil are reporting price cuts of around 50 percent. A spot check on Starlink\u2019s respective service pages in each country supports the above claims.<\/p>\n<p id=\"3a7SDQ\">The situation in the US, where the dollar has been surging against foreign currencies, is less clear. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/Starlink\/comments\/wx14dp\/comment\/ilot3wc\/?utm_source=reddit&#038;utm_medium=web2x&#038;context=3\">A person in Nevada reports<\/a> getting a reduction to $85 (was $110) but Starlink\u2019s own pages still show a monthly subscription price of $110 after a one-time $599 purchase of the hardware kit. Several other people claiming to be from the US say that they haven\u2019t received any price reductions.<\/p>\n<p id=\"l49Dow\">So far there\u2019s no mention of a reduction in speed or the addition of strict data caps following the discounted subscriptions.<\/p>\n<p id=\"m7Mt1I\">SpaceX and T-Mobile will host a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2022\/8\/24\/23320133\/spacex-starlink-t-mobile-connectivity-5g-satellite-elon-musk\">joint event later today<\/a> where Elon Musk will be on hand to announce plans to \u201cincrease connectivity.\u201d It\u2019s unclear if the event has any relation to the new pricing. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><code><br \/><\/br><\/code><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2022\/8\/25\/23321262\/starlink-discount-price-drop\">https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2022\/8\/25\/23321262\/starlink-discount-price-drop<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Source: Starlink, Elon Musk\u2019s internet-from-space service provided by SpaceX, is notifying customers with some good news: their monthly subscriptions have been reduced in response to \u201clocal market conditions.\u201d I received one of these notifications for my Starlink RV service that normally costs me \u20ac124 each month in the Netherlands.
