SpaceX hasn’t explained the price increase. But previously, the company had placed Sacramento, San Diego and Phoenix behind a waitlist. It looks like SpaceX is now reopening access, but only for consumers willing to pay up the $250 congestion charge. The company appears to have done the same in London, UK, removing the waitlist, but increasing the congestion charge.

Last year, the company began rolling out $100 congestion charges for select areas where the network had become strained from too many users. The congestion charge still allows users to sign up for a Starlink residential plan, as long as they pay a premium. In other US cities, SpaceX has revived the waitlist, forcing interested customers to wait until more capacity is added.
