BT Bring Wireless Broadband to Starbucks

starbucks_bt_wifi You want some complimentary Wi-Fi to go with your low fat hazelnut sprinkling-topped soya grande latte? Well thanks to BT Broadband you can.

Thanks to a deal done with coffee giants Starbucks, you can now slurp ‘n surf in any of the 678 coffee houses in the UK and the Republic of Ireland. Yes, there’s really that many Starbucks here.

“Starbucks is the perfect place to work or catch up over email,” says Chris Bruce CEO of BT Openzone, the Wi-Fi arm of the broadband market leaders.

“Use of our Wi-Fi doubled last year and coffee shops are increasingly popular as a third place to work or log on to the internet. We’re constantly looking to boost the choice of places to connect – where people want it. The location of Starbucks stores in the high street and travel hubs is helping to extend the reach of Wi-Fi to customers.”

BT Broadband Options 1 and 2 give you 250 and 350 Wi-Fi minutes per month respectively, with the high end Option 3 package giving you unlimited Wi-Fi minutes.

These allow you to surf the web on your laptop at any of the BT Openzone Wi-Fi hotspots, including the ones just set up in every Starbucks in the British Isles. Now you can sit and sip with your laptop and get back to that screenplay/novel you’ve been meaning to work on.
