Man using Elon Musk's Starlink shares experience
@gvofeyii explained that he had put a password on his Starlink; however, he didn’t know how it became accessible to his neighbours.
A girl who happens to be his neighbour confidently walked up to his door, knocked, and asked him for the password of his Starlink, despite the fact that it is his apartment and his Starlink, which he pays for.
He went on to mention the high amount he pays monthly to enjoy access to the internet via the Starlink network.
He said:
"Found out my neighbours have been using my Starlink. It wasn’t working today & this girl had the guts to knock on my door and ask me for the password.
"I’m so amused.
"No idea how they got it in the first place. I had to reset my router and change the password."

Speaking about the amount he pays monthly to enjoy the service, he added:
"Man, I pay 92k+ every month for subscribing.
"Of course it’s an issue if someone is tapping into it without my permission.
"If it was consensual or agreed upon, totally a different case.
"😭 Can’t wait for the 57k plan to be live again, it’s insane."

"They have the notion of “shebi it is unlimited and he can’t finish it”, the boldness to come knocking is crazy and the fact that they probably figured the previous password from maybe things you say or things they feel you will use is even crazier."
@bigray0x said:
"I have 2TB monthly. Even if everyone in my compound uses it, I doubt it’ll be an issue, but of course you can always ask them to contribute to use it."
@Flaming1001 added:
"I use the gen 3 and pay 57k monthly...but I do collect little stipend from my neighbours every month for subscription. am I a bad person 💀??"
@Ohlee_vah stated:
"Starlink allows people connect, I was using my neighbors own till he woke up one day and changed the whole thing."

"No way a random person walks up to you for your password with absolutely NOTHING ELSE involved."
@Oleribeweb30 added:
"Lmao she really knocked and asked for the password? thats next level balls. tell her subscription fees start at 99 a month."

"If i was your neighbour, I'll ask to be contributing to the payment monthly. That way I'll have unlimited network and also save costs on data."
