Starlink and geolocated services (Draft Kings)

So I signed up for Draft Kings yesterday which is legal in my state (Michigan) however when I log in using my Starlink it geolocates me to Chicago where you are not allowed to access the website. So, I switched to using my cellular hotspot which seemed to work and correctly geolocate me to my actual location.

As a consequence of this within an hour, my account was flagged by Draft Kings and permanently locked for location jumping or account sharing and I am unable to withdraw the money I had deposited. They are looking into my case but I am not confident that I will see any of my money again.

Has anyone else had this problem? Is there a solution? I just wanted to place a bet on the Lions (probably better that I didn't in hindsight)!
