Starbucks Begins “Complimentary” Wi-Fi

Jason Harris on June 3, 2008

StarbucksAs forecast in a previous post, Starbucks has begun their complimentary Wi-Fi service.  To get your two free hours of Wi-Fi, you must:

  1. Create an AT&T Wi-Fi account
  2. Have a Starbucks card (that can have as little as $5) on it and you must have used your Starbucks card once in the last 30 days.
  3. And agree to be emailed (spammed) by AT&T up to 4 times a year.

Not a bad deal: get a Starbucks card and an Americano and you can have 2 hours to use their professionally managed and speedy Wi-Fi.

As another option for free Wi-Fi with your morning coffee, check out your local coffee shop and of course Boingo is also an option.

For more information on AT&T’s Wi-Fi Service, see their FAQ.
