Of course, Kobo live help is unavailable, and their online help window will not submit a question unless one enters a USA or Canada phone number (I have neither; I really am in Hong Kong). So I wonder if somehow the discount code is possibly causing a glitch for me even if it displays as being accepted.
Man, between the contests now being restricted to the USA, Canada and UK, the stealth infiltration of KEPUBs, the inability to contact Kobo for help, and incidents like this, I'm ready to abandon Kobo entirely and just buy epubs from Google Books.

Billingsgate I'm curious as to whether you got an error message when your payment didn't go through? Also, did you check 'My Library' in the event the transaction did go through, even though the screens didn't act like they should have.
sav50 works here in Aus and has done so for many months, and it works in India, so I don't think your transaction issue is related to using that code.
Also if you check out Nate's
The Digital Reader you'll find immediate assistance with the kepub problem.
