pisen is actually a pretty good brand for battery and related accs..
I've used their psp and slr replacement battery.. much cheaper but similar performance to the ori counterpart..

have to register as amazon user.

use fake name generator, hm...the steps abit similar to claim the 25usd.
basically download amazon app store, then register as fake US citezen.

they give a paid app for free everyday.
but for the whole year, i check every day, only got i think less than 10 useful apps/fun games.
99% of them are rubbish games.

the nice ones that i got are, cut the rope, where's my water, fruit ninja puss in boots, crossme, stack it, cant remember all...lol...

for amazon android store, don't you need a valid US ccard?

You can use VPN connection to buy stuffs that are reserved only for US based
Just use the US$25 credit to pay for it
Your local credit card cannot be used

thanks!

hmmm... then 1 device... claim usd25... wipe, add a different account... can get usd25 on another account?

asking also coz... those units that get rejected (RMA, etc)... if they do get re-sold... if device ID is used... then could be a problem for those who get those 'rejected' unit...

but if no device ID is used to block... then if someone got 3 google accounts... that's usd75. biggrin.gif

if you time travel back to 21 july it works.. google patches it already now..
1 device 1x25usd.. 2nd account on same device will not get u additional 25usd

If it is RM3, then any idea why the charge is RM3.78?

1.25 usd = rm3.78?
1usd for verification, 0.25 for the apps that you buy... doh.gif

somehow for unknown reasons, I can't purchase anything from the Google Play anymore. adding a new chargeable credit card also didn't work.

Tried to access Google Play Help also didn't help that much. Tried to have them called me also couldn't be done as in the phone section, Malaysia wasn't on the list.

What should I do? this is the 1st time I face this. sad.gif couldn't find any email of their rep for support as well. damn man..

I found some other information

it seems that google fraud detection system kicks in and locks accounts out. even for people without the play credits.. maybe something to do with ccard being flagged?

you can use all your purchased apps. it's just, you can't make any future purchases for as long as your account is on hold. This is bad especially to us, the customers outside the officially supported countries. I have sent this issue to them via Google Play Help Centre but it seems that they don't respond to individual report. and then tell me, how am I gonna have back my account to before.. seriously I'm getting impatient every each passing day. Any Google rep here in our country? I really need back my account, it has been my primary account for years and this is how Google repay their loyal customers.. seriously f**k them!  vmad.gif  mad.gif  mad.gif

have you tried email google wallet support? maybe an issue from wallet.
google play help centre do respond, I think I contacted them last dec but they just pasted standard answer to me and refuse to help me further. maybe they jus choose to ignore your questions.

i tried to find their email but couldn't. The only channel which I used to contact them is via the Google Play Help, that's all. No email etc. I might miss something. You have their official email or perhaps a page linking to it?

login to wallet.google.com click on help and the select help centre. there is an option to select contact us.
I think you need to login first before clicking the link below.

Unfortunately, users with a Google Play balance or a Checkout Merchant account are unable to change the country.


there is no way to spend the balance until $0 right? so there is no way to change our region back? sweat.gif
so its only matter of time all the account get banned for the $25

Thats about right. I couldnt change back address and postcode to Malaysia one. Everytime I tried to save the changes in my Wallet, it popped up an error stating 'Update failed'

The free USD25, it seems that it's a curse man...  laugh.gif  tongue.gif

not such a big deal since u can still access what you have purchase, consider lucky already. they do have the right to all together ban the account access. if you have used steam.. a ban means every single games gone..
just create a new account and buy from there. I am not sure if the ban the specific card number or not.. anyone who got banned tried create another account and buy from existing ccard before?

Actually i still do not know what is the issue here
After you have used nearly up your US$25, Just go to google wallet and delete your faked credit card details will do
What has this got to do with changing country - delete card everything is gone
*
The credit remains even after deleting the card.
well if they have region restriction on purchases, a US account always buying from outside the region will probably flag the system.. if they really want to take the region stuff seriously.

QUOTE(emy_xvidia @ Oct 3 2012, 07:53 PM)
But Steam dont ban people who buy lots of their games there in which most of them are obviously more expensive than what Google have in Play Store, yet buying lots of cheap apps from Google seem to make us a villain in their eyes.  laugh.gif

I'll have a chill for couples of days from the Store then. Im trying hard here to have back my account without opening up a new one since this isnt my fault and I'd love to see this particular newly-founded issue has some official fixes by them in the near future perhaps. Fingers crossed for that. Update us who are in this if you find anything ya and thanks for the constant help.  biggrin.gif
*
in the first place it is our fault for exploiting vpn to get the 25$. yeah buying a lot from exploited credit is..

in cases of steam, if you buy exploited games key(from different region) the game may be removed or you may receive ban as well. oh they do, especially during sales.. suspect of buying and selling cross region. suspicious activities even traded items can be removed because the item received is frauded and when you trade for it, u jus lose your games. quite scary sometimes these online asset.. the good old days with cd/dvds no matter what you still own it.. online account, 1 click can ban everything.. sweat.gif
