If Starlink services are available in your location, you can click on order now to proceed. Keep in mind that only users opting for the 12-month plan will receive the internet kit for free.

According to a Tech Radar report, users will need to pay the full amount if they choose Starlink's month-to-month 'no commitment' subscription plan. Additionally, Starlink will charge a 'change fee' for users who change residences and may apply similar charges for service cancellations, late bill payments, and other scenarios. Therefore, if you are committed to purchasing the annual plan by Starlink, it would be a good idea.
