Either Google is or Samsung. I have yet to get my Google Play $25. I registered my tablet within a week after buying it and the credit was saying "expired"....I have been trying since September to get it. No luck. I'm so furious that I have to say a prayer to stay calm. I'm gonna give up on it.
Wrong Google is screwing people left and right! Reset your tablet is there response. They make it very hard to get you $25.
"Thousands of Nexus 7 owner having difficulty redeeming $25 Google Play credit" I think it's lots more. They stated you have up to a year to use it after Oct.1 2012.
