I reject that VPN has anything to do with it - something else must be at play. Kobo is not very smart but I would guess the last thing it would do is deny its customers the ability to buy ebooks when travelling outside of their resident country ...

@Joe, (or someone else?) could you try buying something in NZ perhaps? I'm sending from phone so can't for approx another 12 hours or so.

I just went traveling and purchased a book without any trouble, but I have separate accounts set up in different countries instead of having only one account and changing the country when I need to travel.

Thanks! I'm so glad to heard that you got good use out of it.

It does indeed seem to be a one-time code, in that it worked at checkout for me once (though I didn't buy the book) but doesn't now.

Next time (you or anyone else gets a good code) I advise using it before posting, just in case someone else snaffles it!

Of course! I'm happy to help out fellow forum members but I do look out for numero uno LOL! Also, like I said, I didn't really know if it would work until I tried it. I used it on the one $92 book I'd been holding out for. I'd been hoping for a working 65% or 75% code so when this worked I ws like

I just got that code as well, to my Aus account.

Looking at the usual codes given out (I refer to the first post of this thread) this is the first 25% code. 20% codes are reasonably common and 30% codes, but not 25% codes. .....

I can tell you that it's definitely one use per account, but I haven't been able to use it again in another country using the same account.

At the risk of posting off topic and upsetting some, I wanted to share something that happened tonight, as I think it might be of interest to those that travel frequently.
In the past, if I wanted to buy a book not available in my region I would just change my country in my Kobo account settings and everything would work fine.
However tonight I went to buy Ken Follett's new book, which has been released in the UK. I changed my country to UK but when I went to buy it I got a message saying that due to publisher restrictions the book is not available in my region. So I started up TunnelBear (a VPN) and set it to show me as in the UK and tried again, and was able to buy the book with no problem.
So, changing the country in your settings is not always enough. I am assuming this is a new change, as I have never had it happen before.
I dont know if or how this effects coupon code use, but I suspect it may do for those codes issued for specific countries only.
I've tried the Follett book in Aus and NZ and it's a pre-release till 16 Sept in both countries.

I tried another couple of his books in the NZ site and then changed to the UK site and the editions of NZ books aren't sold in the UK. The must have a different publisher there.

My guess is that that accounts for some of the issues you were having....

Anyway, I'm glad you sorted it out via TunnelBear.

Kobobooks.com Discount Codes and pertinent discussion

So I've started a poll and discussion down in the Feedback section of the Forum (which is way down in the Miscellaneous section).

Be pleased to hear your views .....
The Poll has now closed. Thank you everyone who voted and/or posted.

I chose the new thread title.

It seems to me to be accurate and succinct. If you really have a better idea for the title that still includes the element of discussion, I'm willing to consider it.

However, the argument over whether the title should include discussion is now over.
