Well..that certainly makes things a bit tedious.

Also, the captcha is more difficult
Because you want to make it harder for someone to brute-force your password to the Kobo contest...

Aaand the codes aren't working when I go traveling outside the US. (Well, maybe they'd work in the UK, but there's very little I want there.)

So there's a book coming out next week that I know the codes will work on. I guess I'll keep my fingers crossed I'll get a good one to use on it.

Luckily, I have a decent list of promo-eligible books just waiting for good codes.

Unfortunately, I also have a growing list of ineligible books, as well as a distinct lack of good codes...

I am in the States. Have no trouble signing up.

Used 35% off, had no problem with it whatsoever.

CAPTCHA is annoying They have some weird totally unreadable combinations most of the time



25% VCM2T5; ABZ63N; KB2JWP; 7Z6TT9
30% MVRGTB

Don't forget that perkopolis at 40% off still works on all discount eligible books in CA.

Neither my husband or I get US as an option in the new contest, only Canada or UK. Weird.

See a few posts above where JoeHunt posted the US link. There are now two links--if you are in the US, use the US one.

I can confirm that the new contest codes again do not work in the Hong Kong store. What with all the other issues, not just regarding discount codes, it's definitely farewell to Kobo. I was even almost ready to buy a Kobo H20, now that my trusty Sony PRS-650's battery only lasts around 80 page turns. But I won't consider it now. Kobo was nice while it lasted.

The batteries in the 650 are user replaceable.

Invalid at the UK store. It does seem that this competition's codes are absolute single use, not single use per account.

Kobo started a review process back in JANUARY. In the author publisher newsletter that goes out, they gave us instructions for requesting reviews or having fans submit them. I not only put out the request on my blog, I submitted probably 10 reviews of my favorite books. For the first review submitted Kobo offered a generous 50 percent off coupon (which I used!) After 3 months I checked with them about the reviews because none appeared. I checked again after another couple of months.

They used a 3rd party company to collect the reviews and the 3rd party was supposedly going to sort them for validity/unique (no cutting and pasting a review from some other site) and to make sure they were submitted by actual individual Kobo users (in other words No author going and creating 9 accounts and reviewing her own book 9 times). But the reviews never appeared for products or books. Some of the big 6 books have a few reviews.
