Costa conducts security review over online Coffee Club accounts

The coffee chain ran security checks over ‘unusual activity’ of Coffee Club Card member accounts.

“Through security checks we identified a small number of Coffee Club Card members (around 0.02%) who had some unusual activity on their account. As a result we have conducted a full security review and in the interim, removed the ability for Coffee Club members to access their account online,” the company said in its blog.

Costa assured its club members that they can still collect and redeem points as usual.

“It’s important to note we do not hold any financial data on the Costa loyalty card system and we apologise for any inconvenience this causes but it’s very important to us that your points and registration details remain safe,” the company said.
