How to Contact Starlink Customer Support through Tickets
To contact Starlink customer support through tickets, follow these steps:
1. On the Starlink app/website, log in to your Account.
2. Open the Support page.
3. Click open the Troubleshooting tile.
4. Select a preset query that's similar to your issue.
5. Scroll down to the "Did this answer your Question?" tile.
6. Tap on the Thumbs Down button below this tile. Doing so will take you to the page to raise a Ticket.
7. Fill in the necessary tiles.
8. Click on Submit a request to create a Ticket.
You have now successfully registered a Ticket addressing the query. In due time, you will get a reply from Starlink.
People tend open multiple tickets in hopes of a faster response, but doing so would only result in the opposite.
Unfortunately, Starlink support still leaves a lot to be desired.
Want to be a part of the Starlink community? All you got are the dime-a-dozen articles expatiating on the merits (or demerits) of getting into the program.
But once you receive your Starlink hardware and set up the service, a.k.a become a valued customer of Starlink with your very own account, reaching customer services is a breeze.
The process of Public grievance redressal through Tickets is nothing new in the current day and age. Most E-Commerce websites and services rely on a similar system to address and resolve common issues and queries.
Although embedded deep inside the Support page of Starlink, you can get a customer support agent to answer your ticket quite swiftly if you know where to look in the first place.
You can also check up on the status of your Ticket. Here's how to do so:
How to Check the Status of a Ticket
After lodging a Ticket with Starlink, you can actively monitor the Ticket status.
A real-time status feature has become a crucial element of every Grievance Redressal system since it helps further the transparency involved in the procedures taking place behind the curtains.
Starlink, too, believes in this corporate transparency, hence the implementation.
To know the status of your current Tickets, follow these steps on the Starlink App/website:
- Access your Starlink User Account.
- Click on the Support button.
- Select All messages from the right-side menu.
You can now find the status of every Ticket you have opened.
Does Starlink Have an Official Email Addrees or a Contact Number?
Starlink, unlike other major Satelline internet providers, seems to shy away from providing consumers, both potential and existing ones, a phone number, or even a contact form.
The only legitimate way to get in touch with a Starlink customer care professional is through raising a ticket. And as we all know now, that process is restricted to customers only.
But on the off-chance you get in trouble with logging into the app (from where you would usually raise a ticket) Starlink does have a contact email address to which you can send in your queries.
Send your queries regarding the same to starlinkresolutions@spacex.com with subject title - 'Consumer Complaint'.
Fortunatelty though, there are other ways to get your Starlink queries answered:
