Pumpkin spice not available for customers mobile order 😂 (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by MrsOceanGrown
I’m not joking, she showed me her phone and asked where to get an iced pumpkin latte. There was pumpkin cream cold brew, even a pumpkin steamer and Frappuccino. But no hot or iced pumpkin latte. I looked in EVERY category on her phone. In “iced lattes” it said total options were 3.

So i pulled out my phone and looked on my app, same store location obvi, and started an order and it showed it on mine! Both hot and cold! Under lattes on mine it said 4 total options. I was literally so confused but so humored at the same time! She went with her other drink and i gave her a pumpkin scone on the house.

Happen to anyone?

Edit: she had a specific 50% off coupon that applies only to mobile order. So that’s why she wanted to place it through mobile app and not right there in store.

Maybe she needed to update her app.

This. The fall drinks showed up on launch day on my phone, but not on my husband’s. (Me: iPhone; him: Android)

Once he updated the app, they were immediately there.

Usually those coupons are able to be applied in store too. Did you check for a discount code in her offers?

I probably just would’ve made her what she actually wanted, that sounds so frustrating, I’m sure she appreciated the scone!

There was no code. It is a coupon that applies at checkout when mobile ordering.

Oh ok! I just mentioned it because I saw a metric fuck ton of those offers on drive thru yesterday

Shows up as the first thing in featured fall beverages.

5 different partners looked at her phone and couldn’t find it anywhere.

I understand. I just meant that it’s not happening to everyone using the app. Maybe it’s a regional thing.
