NEW YORK: SpaceX is offering its Starlink broadband satellite internet service to test users for US$99 a month, plus US$499 for a setup kit, according to emails seen by Reuters, as Elon Musk's space company pushes to offer fast internet speeds to rural customers with limited options.

The Starlink Beta program comes as rivals like OneWeb, the collapsed satellite operator rescued by the British government, India’s Bharti Group and Jeff Bezos' Amazon set out to offer their own broadband satellite networks. One user Reuters spoke with paid US$578 for the Starlink kit, including shipping and handling, and cited a SpaceX note saying they"can send everything back for a 75per cent refund" if they're unhappy with the service.
