I've tried the new checkout on three different browsers (IE, Chrome, and Firefox) and there's no place that I can see to enter the promo code even for books that are supposed to be eligible. Any hints or tips? I have a Norfolk Island account set up also that allows me to use codes on any book but certain codes like the 95comic one won't work on the old checkout.

You have to choose a payment method then hit the continue button. At least that's how it works with paypal. And be aware that the spot for a code shows up even if the book doesn't take codes.

I just used 75off successfully for something very expensive I'd been eying (the entire set of Jalna novels with author's biography) and it worked in Firefox on Mac. Whether I can use it a second time, we'll see ...

Just want to emphasize this as I unintentionally paid full price for a book as I wasn't paying attention.

In the new checkout, you enter the code, apply it and the price is adjusted (or not if the code doesn't apply.) You don't get the pop-up blurb stating whether or not the code applied successfully as you get in the old check out.

If the book had any restrictions on it, I shouldnt have been able to buy it in the first place.
I cant think of any logical excuse as to why its my fault or ok on Kobos part to allow me to pay for it and then not give me the book.
I emailed them straight away but of course they have not replied. I am currently connected to Live Assistance but it just keeps says Searching For An Available Agent and its now been just over an hour so I am guessing there just arent any agents there today despite the service supposedly being available.

This is so incredibly frustrating.

Yes, that is what happened to me. It didn't block the purchase until I logged into Paypal. Kobo put a temporary charge on my card that dropped off a week or so later. I didn't notice the price change until I tried to buy the book again. It was only 79 cents so not that big of a deal.

Love the codes, but all of the books I want right now are either Kindle-only or not eligible for the codes.

There seem to be rather a lot of us in this boat. I hope there aren't any icebergs ahead...

I just gave 50Nvbr a try today and it worked.

edit: Looks like it is unlimited-use.

Not sure if novend50 still works or if it was unlimited, can't remember.
