Many of us in this thread have a reputable history in our accounts and have been using it for years, so why not limit the birthday gift time window for new members and then gradually over the years give more time?
I wasn't calling into question the reputation of anyone in this thread since I face the same issue with redeeming the birthday reward and have had Stars redeemed instead of my birthday on my last birthday. One store employee told me they had a customer who created a new account for each gift card he received to claim a birthday reward. Starbucks also requires activity on the account for the previous year to receive the birthday reward good for a single day.
