All they needed to do was require a credit card to redeem the code. All of the other offers do this, and I bet nobody is bothering to use any of them.

I might buy a Final Fantasy game, those are usually expensive

I think the Gmail trick is dead.

But if you send it to new email accounts, you'll still instantly receive your redemption email.

I used a VPN when I redeemed it

But then I logged into the play store on my phone without one and it worked fine. Just needed to answer the security question

I give up.

Redemption codes are still coming in. But the last 3 I received, I'm getting this message:
Quote:
There was an error redeeming the gift card, please try again.
Is there any way to buy the RS app multiply times?
So I can donate some $$ back to RS without having to make 3242324 Gmail accounts.

the trick was after I realized the gmail "trick" stopped working was to create new gmail accounts to process it

I did it once more and then realized it wasn't worth the hassle

Do this: https://support.google.com/googlepla...38597?hl=en-CA
It should work then, you don't even need a VPN or anything actually.

EDIT: Nvm looks like this deal is dead

Great while it lasted. Ended up with 250 used a newly created junk account as I didn't want to mess with legit accounts.
Just purchased a bunch up games and upgraded a few system apps I was on the fence about to pro(lightflow)

Regardless support the development guys especially all those that do your kernels and such. I paid for all franco and fauxclock awhile back legitimately and it was well worth it. I can also say that as archaic as Titanium Backup may be, the people version was great for restoring apps.

No you can't gift an app to someone, all you can do is gift a Play Store card.

Thinking of spending credit on a GPS Nav app with offline/downloaded maps for US travel. Is there anything better than Tom Tom on Android? I use it on iPhone and it's quite good.

Navigon > Tom Tom

Wish I had done more. My $50 credit isn't enough to DL one of the GPS apps. Guess I'll still have to lug my old iPhone around when I head down to the States, lol.

Why not just buy the app if it's useful? Or if you already scammed $50, add to it to get the app for cheap?
