𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗿𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗸 𝗵𝗮𝘀 𝗵𝗶𝘁 𝗳𝘂𝗹𝗹 𝗰𝗮𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗮𝗴𝗮𝗶𝗻 in several Harare cells, particularly around the CBD, blocking all new activations. Even customers willing to shell out for the steep US$105 Business Priority packages are being turned away. This cell congestion is hardly a surprise, as the rush for priority slots has begun to degrade standard residential speeds during peak hours. Meanwhile, a quiet clampdown is targeting roaming users: * 𝗩𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗖𝗵𝗲𝗰𝗸𝘀: Starlink has started forcing local roaming accounts to undergo strict address and registration verification. * 𝗠𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁: While it is just a verification check for now, it gives the company an exact count of how many unauthorized roaming kits are draining the congested Harare grid. * 𝗡𝗲𝘁𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗦𝗾𝘂𝗲𝗲𝘇𝗲: Pushing users off roaming and freezing new priority sign-ups is the only way the satellite network can preserve bandwidth for existing clients. With local cells completely saturated, the satellite boom has hit a physical wall in the capital. 🌐🛰️ Have your Starlink speeds started dropping during evening peak hours?

𝗦𝗧𝗔𝗥𝗟𝗜𝗡𝗞 𝗖𝗔𝗣𝗔𝗖𝗜𝗧𝗬 𝗔𝗟𝗘𝗥𝗧: 𝗞𝗔𝗗𝗢𝗠𝗔 𝗜𝗦 𝗙𝗜𝗟𝗟𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗨𝗣 It seems parts of 𝗞𝗮𝗱𝗼𝗺𝗮 have hit the "Sold Out" wall. Just like we saw in Harare and Bulawayo, 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗿𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗸 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗮𝗹 and 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗟𝗶𝘁𝗲 packages are now showing as "At Capacity" in several neighbourhoods. 𝗜𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘀𝗲 𝗳𝘂𝗹𝗹 𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘀, 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝘄𝗼 𝗼𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀: 𝟭. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗪𝗮𝗶𝘁𝗹𝗶𝘀𝘁 (𝗗𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝗛𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗕𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗵): You can pay a 𝗨𝗦$𝟱𝟬 𝗱𝗲𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗶𝘁 to reserve your spot. However, based on the experience in other cities, this wait can last months. There is no official timeline for when new residential slots will open up. 𝟮. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗣𝗿𝗶𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗣𝗮𝘁𝗵 (𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗜𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗙𝗶𝘅): If you need internet today, you have to jump to the 𝗣𝗿𝗶𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝟭𝗧𝗕 plan. • 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵𝗹𝘆 𝗖𝗼𝘀𝘁: This plan is 𝗨𝗦$𝟭𝟬𝟬/𝗺𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵 for 𝟭𝗧𝗕 of high-speed prioritized data. • 𝗛𝗮𝗿𝗱𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗲: You’ll need the 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗿𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗸 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝗞𝗶𝘁. Prices locally are hovering between 𝗨𝗦$𝟯𝟱𝟬 and 𝗨𝗦$𝟰𝟬𝟬 at retailers like 𝗦𝗵𝗼𝗻𝗮 𝗣𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗲. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗕𝗼𝘁𝘁𝗼𝗺 𝗟𝗶𝗻𝗲: Starlink is managing its network load by limiting the cheaper $30 and $50 plans in high-demand zones. If you’re in a "full" part of Kadoma, the era of budget satellite internet has officially ended before it even really began for some. Are you willing to pay the $50 deposit and wait it out, or is the $100 Priority plan the only way forward for your home or business?
