I spent the full $20, but I haven't gotten my full bonus yet.

I bought an ebook, and got a $1.07 credit. Beside the credit, it said something to the effect that it was the $5 bonus! Has anyone else had this problem?

The instructions did say that it could take up to 4 days to get the credit.

Maybe your original purchase was $23.93, and they've already applied the $5 credit to the overage .... leaving 1.07 left as a credit?

That didn't happen for me, as I spend several bucks over $20, and I got the full $5 credit .... but you might check the amount you thought you paid toward the $20, and see if any of that might have already been covered by the credit.

Hmmm . . . . could be. Anyway, I'm satisfied that I got (or will be getting) all that's due to me.

You must have bought $20 in ebooks by today, May 27, in order to get your $5 credit. To be exact, you have until 11:59 p.m. Pacific Daylight Time.

I haven't found a counter, on Amazon's website anywhere, that registers the amount of money that you've spent on ebooks with them since the starting date of the promo, May 22. I have resigned myself to the fact that I'll probably have to go to "Content and Devices" and add up the numbers for myself.

I activated the promo, but didn't buy the books until a few days later. Within a few minutes of my purchase, I received an email informing me that I received the credit. After that, whenever I opened up a book on the site, the credit showed under the ebook price.
