Starbucks WiFi switching to AT&T - Better prices for you!
Feb 11th, 2008 by Vik
Tired of poaching your neighbors wireless internet?
If you’re unwilling (or unable) to spend the big bucks for some internet of your own - Starbucks - imagine that! - is here to help!
Drag your cheap ass over to the nearest Starbucks and buy a $4.00 coffee with your Starbucks Purchase Card and they’ll give you TWO free hours of Wifi. This comes as part of their move away from T-Mobile over to AT&T. I must say I’m thrilled; paying the hourly rate T-mobile charged was a very costly affair.
Now you too can join the latte drinking Apple fanboy crowd! So get moving off my router, you damn leach.
Notably, if you’re already an AT&T broadband subscriber, you get unlimited free internet.
Starbucks said it will give customers who use a Starbucks card two hours of free wireless access per day. More time than that will cost $3.99 for a two-hour session. Monthly memberships will cost $19.99 and include access to any of AT&T’s 70,000 hot spots worldwide.
Nearly all of AT&T’s broadband Internet customers, about 12 million, will automatically have unlimited free Wi-Fi access at Starbucks, the companies said.
