Edit: Well that answers that, despite what the terms say, they really mean new accounts only. I get this message: "Unfortunately this promotion applies to new Kobo accounts only." How hard would it be to say that in the terms and conditions?
You've made a purchase with your account, so you won't get the credit.

If you had an existing account, without any purchases, then you should be able to get the credit.

I'm not sure how free books are handled, as Kobo doesn't seem to consider them purchases ('Add to Library').
