Kobo $2 off - Page 2

The code seems to be active but now it says $2 off any $10 or more book till May 30th. So I guess they made a mistake or decided to change it.

Does it say so on the site, or did you get an email? I tried it on a $10+ book and it's still showing as not active. Also, I wrote to Kobo yesterday about the early expiry of the code and, after a little back-and-forth (the first rep claimed to know nothing about the code), here is their latest response:

Thank you for your inquiry. The redtag2 promo code was discontinued because of distribution issues. A new promo code will be sent in the following days to the recipients of the redtag2 code.

Thanks for your patience in this matter.

Regards,
The Kobo Team

I'm curious as to what they mean by distribution issues - what it supposed to be geo-restricted?

Thanks for the heads up.
I got it from another forum.

It sounds like the coupon was only suppose to go to a certain group of people and it was widely distributed so they cancel it. I don't know...it could be complaints of geo restriction problems.
