Starlink<\/a>’s (SpaceX) mega constellation of ultrafast broadband satellites in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) has become a popular solution for UK customers in remote rural areas, yet its adoption is often held back by the high price of entry. But the space ISP is now testing the waters with a 50% cheaper plan, albeit one with caveats.<\/p>\n

The operator currently has around 5,500 LEO satellites<\/strong> in orbit around the Earth (altitudes of c.500-600km) and they\u2019re in the process of adding thousands more by the end of 2027. Customers in the UK typically pay from \u00a375 a month, plus \u00a3449 for the hardware (currently discounted to \u00a3225 or \u00a3150 if refurbished) and \u00a320 for shipping on the \u2018Standard<\/em>\u2019 package (currently free), which promises fast internet latency times of 25-50ms, downloads of c. 25-100Mbps and uploads of c. 5-10Mbps.<\/p>\n

NOTE:<\/strong> At the end of 2023 Starlink<\/a>\u2019s global network had 2.3 million customers and 42,000 of those are in the UK (up from 13,000 in 2022) \u2013 mostly in rural areas.<\/div>\n

However, the above package is considered to be Starlink<\/a>’s cheapest one, which is still too expensive for many consumers. But the company is also well known for testing different plans in different countries, which is often as much about experimentation as it is about the limitations of ground station capacity and other factors in each specific market.<\/p>\n

The latest example of this comes from New Zealand, which until recently offered a similar Standard plan to the UK ($159 or \u00a376.70\/month). But Starlink has just introduced an additional Deprioritized Service Plan<\/strong>, which cuts the monthly price in half to the equivalent of just $79 per month (\u00a338.11). This is much more in the realm of mass consumer affordability, although naturally there’s a catch.<\/p>\n

What is the Starlink “Deprioritized” Service Plan?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

(Currently only available in New Zealand)<\/em><\/p>\n

Starlink “Deprioritized” Service is a more affordable service plan that is designed for Personal, Family, or Household-use at a fixed, land-based location at a valid location in New Zealand. Users will have an unlimited amount of Standard data each month with no long-term contracts or commitments (similar to Starlink’s “Standard” Service Plan).<\/p>\n

This service plan will be deprioritized over Standard Service during peak hours. This means that speeds may be slower for Deprioritized Service relative to Standard Service when our network has the most users online.<\/p>\n

With the Starlink “Deprioritized” Service Plan:<\/p>\n

\u27a4 There are no data caps and no speed caps
\n\u27a4 Speeds should range from 50 – 100 Mbps (as compared to 150 – 250 Mbps for the Standard [NZ] service plan)
\n\u27a4 You may upgrade to “Standard” Starlink service at any time
\n\u27a4 Mobility (in-motion) or Maritime (ocean) use is not allowed
\n\u27a4 Pause Service feature is not supported
\n\u27a4 Ability to opt-in to purchase Priority or Mobile Priority Data is not supported<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

We’ve long been calling for Starlink to introduce a plan like this, although the realities of satellite<\/a>-based economics often make such a service hard to do without too many compromises (e.g. usage restrictions or dramatically slower speeds). But the above service still manages to promise reasonable speeds and unlimited usage, which could make it significantly more attractive for those in remote rural areas.<\/p>\n

The catch is that, for now, you’ll only be able to get this in New Zealand and there’s currently no indication of whether or when it might launch anywhere else, including in the UK. Equally it\u2019s possible that a UK version of the package might differ, such as in terms of the promised service speeds or restrictions, which as stated earlier is defined by a combination of the local market, ground station capacity and other factors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
