FREE £2 (AUD $3.60) Voucher for Android App Store at Amazon UK

1010

This is a tricky one, and wasn't sure whether to post or not. I've had it confirmed that the voucher can be successfully obtained, but you need to change your geographical restrictions for the App Store. I hope some can make use of it. Good luck.

    and you obviously need a UK Amazon account.

    It seemed to work for me, and I have an Australian Account.

    • Thanks jv. I'm really flying blind with this one. I'll update the post.

    • HHmm. I claimed the voucher using my Australian account just fine. So the problem is I can only use it on UK site correct?

  • obtained the voucher just then on amazon uk. expires on 18/6/2014

  • Got the voucher, now what to use it for?

    • Most of the apps I like are free… ????

      • Question/statement?

        I'm confused !?

      If I look at any pay app it tells me: "We are sorry You are not eligible to purchase this app due to geographical restrictions."

      Guess getting the voucher was the easy part, using it can be tricky…

        I'm getting the same

        We are sorry
        You are not eligible to purchase this app due to geographical restrictions

        I bet they are not really sorry…

        • I've been told you can change the geographical restrictions. I have no idea how. Hopefully someone can tell us.

        • You could use a VPN like TunnelBear? I'm not sure if it would work though.

          I have no idea how.

          Any cheap flights to the UK ?

        • You could use a VPN like TunnelBear?

          Zenmate in Chrome does the same thing…

        • Someone in the UK could download it to your account for you. No?

    what is the point of this?

    If we buy from uk app store then we need to log out of amazon USA account in android app to use Uk apps on our phones

    Which means any USA bought apps won't function on our phones etc..

    use hola unlocker for firefox, worked for me :)

  • Anyone got this to work, i changed my Kindle Geographic region to UK, but still get this error "We could not process your order because of geographical restrictions on the product which you were attempting to purchase. Please refer to the terms of use for this product to determine the geographical restrictions."

    Looks like Hola for Firefox does work, thanks.

    Got Notepad+ http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00IK1NTCW/ref=mas_ty

  • Any suggested apps worth looking at specifically?

  • Still can't redeem my previous voucher…

    • Go to Amazon website and search for paid apps, you should see something like "Redeem a gift card or promotion code & view balance" link. you should see your voucher amount, and you can select this when you purchase an app.

      You dont see anything using the amazon app.

  • Worked on my account, my account has US, UK and Aus addresses attached.

  • It worked on my Aus account (thanks JV). From the fine print (after I activated the voucher):
    "You must use your voucher towards the purchase of eligible apps by 11.59pm on 18th June 2014"

  • Still have the uncharged equivalent 8.36 British Pound Sterling from myTelstra 'AU$15' pack (s). However an astute find, ta, author.
