Starbucks offers free Wi-Fi for card holders

Join up for a fiver and get free whipped cream too

22 September 2009 11:29 GMT / By Amy-Mae Elliott

Starbucks has announced that every registered Starbucks Card holder will get free BT Openzone Wi-Fi at Wi-Fi-enabled coffee houses.

There are more than 650 BT Openzone Wi-Fi enabled Starbucks coffee houses throughout the UK and Ireland.

The free Wi-Fi is in addition to other "rewards" from the coffee chain for card holders, including free syrup, soy milk and whipped cream, so the scheme is clearly not to be sniffed at.

To become a card holder, and be eligible for free Wi-Fi, new Starbucks Card customers need to load a card with £5 or 5 euros and join the programme online by registering at www.starbucks.co.uk.

  • today 29th october at my usual daily visit to my local starbucks in kensington
    church street london w8 4ep i applied to join the starbucks card .... i was told the
    start charge would be £2 which i gladly paid.... since arriving home i discover
    that i was misinformed and the charge should be £5.... is this correct. I have
    also experienced difficulty in submitting my application via google.i have
    enjoyed this particular branch for several years.
