    Will it not show up if you have ad block on because i don’t see it anywhere?

    • Stacy Moon

    Thanks!!

    To get a free reward, do you get it after you are a gold member or after you are a gold member AND enter 12 more points?

    • Kathryn Meyer

      You’re first free earned reward comes 12 stars after you earn gold so actually your 42nd star.

      Remember that while earning gold the stars “fall off” your account 1 year from the date they are earned.

        Is there any end date that the star code has to be entered into an account? I hope to keep mine active as long as possible. I emailed Starbuck but it is going to take 7 days for a reply and that could b e too late. The phone rep had no clue.

  7. Theresa

    Got the star … Ty!

  8. Laura

    Thank you
    It wasn’t showing up on my iPad. I had to go to the computer.

    Question… I have a $1 off coupon in my account. Do I just show them my phone where they can see it, and then use whatever form of payment? Or, do I have to pay with my starbucks card on my phone in order to get the discount? Thanks.

    • Missy

      I’m thinking you have to use your starbucks card. Otherwise, you could use your coupon over and over.

    • Wendy

      You have to tell the cashier you have the promo so they can enter it for you and then use the card that the discount is registered to pay. I should deduct it after you can the card. If the deal isn’t on your card, it won’t give you the discount.

    how long does the email take?

  11. Tiffany

    Has anyone received the email with the code yet? My friend and I haven’t received the email yet

    • Laura

      My son received his code. I did not.

      • Laura

        I received mine. I’m sure their system is a bit overloaded.

    • Inda

      I received the email a few seconds after the task.

    • Wendy

      I received mine with a couple of minutes!
      Thanks Collin!!!

    • kelly

      I received my code through my e-mail right after I submitted the week’s task…thanks Collin…..I really love Starbucks!

  12. danielle

    got email and it says code not valid

    • Lee

      Double check the code–I copied and pasted it and it added a space before and left off the last letter so it said invalid code. When I corrected it, it worked fine.

  13. Diana

    I rcvd my email and code was valid 🙂
    Thank u!

  14. Kviganas@yahoo

    If anyone has an extra code can you please send me an email. I only need 3 more to get to gold. It would be greatly appreciated! The other codes for the 5 starts never worked for me. 🙁
    TIA

  15. Kim

    I received my code in my email within about 5 minutes of performing the task.

  16. Hilary

    Awesome! Thank you!

  17. jade

    Can anyone send the link? I’m signed in but don’t see the “start now” page.

    • Laura

      If you have ad blocker on, you won’t see it.

      • Kylee

        Thank you!

    • Robyn

      Its not working on my end

      • Laura

        What are you on?
        I had a problem on my iPad and switched to fire fox on the Mac

    • Jade

      I was on my PC on IE & tried disabling the pop-up blocker as suggested & it still wasn’t visible. Then I tried it on my iPhone, logged into my Sbucks acct. & the prompts were visible. After completing the task, my code was immediately sent to my email. 🙂

  18. Marlene

    Thanks! I got the code in my email immediately 🙂

  19. Cyn

    I downloaded the GR report but nothing happens. Where do I go to type in my email address to get the code sent to me?

    • Shannon G

      My email was pretty much instant

    • Shannon G

      There are more steps involved you have to go back down to the bottom where you click the star logo. After you download the report at the top it should say download complete and the. Go back again and I believe it says continue and the it takes you to email entry.

      • Claudia

        Thanks Shannon, that’s why i haven’t received my email, I went back to my account, and it show my email entry….
        This comment wasn’t for me, but help me! Thanks again

    I just tried to request and it says “sold out”. Pays to get deals early.
