Re: Starbucks better take out the "ifs and buts"

said by RobinMI :

With Starbucks stock at an all time low as customers shun the idea of paying for $4 coffees, they had better just give free WiFi access to ANY customer willing to pay them the $4.
I haven't seen anyone shunning anything, the lines at every Starbucks I know of (and I am a heavy user) are longer than ever.

This has been working for a few months now in Norcal, the little icon in the upper right corner directing ATT customers to login. Takes you to a second login page and then back to authentication on t-mobile. I haven't been able to get it to work at the ATT airports, like ORD yet though.

Since I have ATT dsl, AND a starbucks card, I guess it is going to still be free.

The other coffee shops I now frequent (as opposed to Starbucks because I've found better alternatives) mostly offer free WiFi.

If Starbucks wants to reinvent itself for its shareholders, they better start with looking at the competition, which DOES offer free WiFi without any ifs, and, or buts. No card punches required.
I do agree. I do not like the 14 year old crowd in the places here in NJ. My opinion - you do NOT need damn coffee that young -I wasn't even allowed out at even that age -let alone caffeine. Or a laptop.
