Fisayo Fosudo said the analysis shows that he has consumed close to 3 terabytes of data.

The period under review covered July to August 15 2024 during which time he paid N38,000.

However, despite consuming so much data, he was still charged the same N38,000 for a subscription.

He said:

“Our Starlink usage from July to August was almost 3 terabytes and cost ₦38,000 per month. This is around $24 per month which is not so bad. I just wish upload speed was good.”
