From 13/09/2025 Starlink no long offers free 'pausing' on its Roam plans.
You will now need to switch to the new paid 'Standby Mode' if you wish to keep your service paused.
Standby mode currently costs $8.50 AUD per month, and includes unlimited low-speed data for emergency messaging and easy reactivation in dead zones for a small monthly fee source.
