I am not getting a new checkout screen anywhere. I have not, however, changed my country on Kobo's system since that contravenes the terms of use. Is or was there any way of benefiting from the discount code while remaining officially in my home country of Australia?
I don't know if you're aware that Kobo has declared that Norfolk Island is it's own country, changed the currency to USD, ignoring all diplomatic and UN channels. They just did it of their own volition.

The Australian government supports geo unblocking and there are many articles on this in the Aus press .... google it ... and you will also see how the eprint media, and tv eprint media describe ways to geo unblock.
