Starry's "Fresh Start" Forgives COVID-era Debt

Starry announced its “Fresh Start” debt forgiveness program for broadband subscribers who were unable to pay their broadband subscription fee due to the impacts of the COVID-19 health crisis. The Fresh Start program will wipe away any debt owed to Starry through July 31, 2020 and enable subscribers to start with a zero dollar balance beginning August 1. The Fresh Start program applies to subscribers who opted into Starry’s COVID-19 relief program during the Federal Communications Commission's “Keep Americans Connected” pledge period and includes subscribers who requested partial and full relief during the pledge period.
