Starlink to Halt Service To Unauthorised Ghana Users By August 21

967

Starlink, the satellite internet provider Elon Musk owns, has announced plans to disconnect users in Ghana from accessing its mobile plans by August 21. This decision comes as the company enforces restrictions in regions where it is not yet authorised to operate.

In an email to affected users, Starlink stated that customers using its mobile plans outside authorised zones for over two months would lose access to the service after the deadline. This move echoes a similar warning issued in April to users in Sudan, Zimbabwe, and South Africa, where access was also threatened but reportedly remained active past the deadline.

Although Starlink has been approved to operate in Ghana, the company has not yet received a full operating license. The Ministry of Communication has indicated that the licensing process should be finalised in the third quarter of 2024. This was communicated after the National Communications Authority recently approved Starlink’s application to offer satellite broadband services in the country.
