The inbuilt 'starter' is faulty - toss it and replace it.
The inbuilt 'starter' on a compact fluorescent bulb is housed in the large base and fulfils the same function as the plug-in 'starter' on a normal long-tube fluorescent light fitting - to kick-start the tube into fluorescing. So, while it is possible to replace a faulty 'starter' on a long-tube fitting, on a compact bulb, because its inbuilt, you have to toss the whole bulb...
