Starlink goes live in Greece
March 28, 2023
By Chris Forrester
Elon Musk’s Starlink broadband service is now fully available over Greece. Costs are quoted as €60 a month with no need for long-term contracts. Potential users can ‘rent’ the Starlink equipment for a one-time activation fee of €50 plus €15 per month rental, or buy the dish, modem and cables for €300 which is a reduction on the previous fee of €450.
The national availability over Greece will be good news, especially for residents and villa-owners who frequently struggle with broadband access during the summer season and in particular when connections are needed on the popular Greek islands.
The full Greek availability extends connectivity to near-by countries including North Macedonia, Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, Czechia and Poland.
There are – as yet – unconnected countries including Bosnia/Herzegovina, Serbia, Montenegro, Kosovo and Albania. Belarus and Russia are not connected.
