Open the Play Store, go to your order history, select the Starbucks Alumni Community purchase, tap Report a problem and request a refund. Requests within 48 hours are often auto-approved.
Starbucks Alumni Community cancellation: frequently asked questions
Does canceling Starbucks Alumni Community stop the charges immediately?
No. Canceling stops future renewals but you keep access until the end of the billing period you already paid for. After that date Starbucks Alumni Community will not charge you again. If you were charged unexpectedly, request a refund separately.
Can I get a refund from Starbucks Alumni Community?
Refunds are handled by Apple or Google, not by Starbucks Alumni Community directly. On iPhone, go to reportaproblem.apple.com, sign in, find the Starbucks Alumni Community charge and choose Request a refund. On Android, open the Play Store order history, select the purchase and tap Report a problem. Requests made within 48 hours are often approved automatically.
Why is Starbucks Alumni Community still charging me after I canceled?
The most common causes: the cancellation did not finish (check that Subscriptions shows Starbucks Alumni Community as Expired), you have a second subscription under a different Apple ID or Google account, or you canceled inside the app but not in the store where billing actually lives. Cancel it in the App Store subscription settings to be sure.
How do I delete my Starbucks Alumni Community account?
Deleting your account is separate from canceling the subscription. To remove your data, delete the account inside the Starbucks Alumni Community app settings first, then cancel the subscription in the App Store and uninstall the app. Canceling alone does not erase your account.
Will I lose access to Starbucks Alumni Community right after I cancel?
No. You keep full access to Starbucks Alumni Community until the paid period ends, so there is no benefit to waiting. Cancel as soon as you decide, and enjoy the remaining days you already paid for.
