The entire purpose of buying Starlink was to stay connected while roaming. This plan change will force me to drop Starlink altogether as it becomes cost prohibitive.

I move countries a lot and Starlink was bought with this in mind moving the goal posts all the time is not very consumer friendly and will not win hearts or minds

I’m a sailboat cruiser and love my Starlink. But need it to be affordable and Global Priority is cost prohibitive.

Please reconsider. These restriction are unreasonable for our lifestyle and my child’s education. Thank you, Will

I cruise on my sailboat and depend on Starlink for weather, communications, etc.

Afordable Starlink on the see is a big contribution to the safety!

As an international cruiser starlink is crucial. The new rules make it impossible.

If Starlink increases like they say they will, we will be forced to cancel it and only be able to be on our boat in the US. We are full-time live aboard cruisers.

I am one of the thousands of cruising community who this change will inadvertently affect in a negative way. Respectfuly, please reconsider.

We subscribed to Starlink because of the roam plan, which was doable/affordable for us as Canadian seniors who cruise the Bahamas from December to May.

This is not customer focused.

If someone in an RV can roam thousands of miles under a normal subscription, why can’t a boater roam a couple hundred miles within the Bahamas under the same rules.

Wing a sailor/travelling myself we can go via many countries in a 3 month window. This has and will restrict usage. And looks like we may go back to 5g, which is also very good when coatal hopping. Therfore losing a greater income to Starlink.

I just bought and installed starlink on my boat to use in bahamas next year, this was not part of the deal I signed up for.

We are sailing cruisers and we are both still working. Starlink has made this possible over the last 2 years. The cost of upgrading to keep the dream going is way too much money.

We are full time live aboard and are big Starlink investors and fans. I hope these new cruiser punitive rules were just an oversight.

It is important to me because we live on our boat most of the time. It is very expensive We need internet all the time. e

I’m a sailing cruiser and some think that means mega yacht but it’s simply not the case. Starlink has been a game changer for safety and connectivity but the new Roam restrictions don’t allow roaming at all, particularly in the Caribbean where you can be in 3 different countries in as many weeks. Please reconsider the policy changes and allow people to use the service in a practical manner. Personally I don’t need the highest speeds, guaranteed throughout, nor even unlimited data.
