Charge Google Play purchases to your Telstra Account - including Pre-Paid!

I simply couldn't believe it, but you can now use your Telstra Account to pay for your Google Play purchases as long as they are under $20.

This includes Pre-Paid mobiles, meaning that your Pre-Paid credit just got more usable. I just bought $80 worth of apps using my Pre-Paid Telstra balance. I now have nearly every app I could want (I think it was 280 last I counted).

Annoyingly items over $20 can't be bought.

Bump in case people haven't read this information.

Have saved tons with this. A shame that there is a $20 dollar limit on the single purchase though.

  Yeah but most items in the play store (excluding a few high-end apps and movies/books) are under $20 :) It's still great either way and a great way to use up any leftover credit before it expires.
