Google Wallet problem

bogman · 20-01-2012 11:09pm #1

Needed to setup an Android Market account it seems

We're sorry. Your profile contains an invalid address

I have tried everything here, think the problem may be the last two lines

Near Cork
Cork

Works for everything else, can I buy an app via paypall?
Thanks

It's a bug, you have to add the card via a pc

well i can confirm that many Irish addresses don't work via pc too, it is usually because some dumb filters of street name

Just ran into this problem now. So how do you get around it?

Edit: Nevermind, I just went to the google wallet site and set it up there instead of in the marketplace.

I've just run into this, and despite trying every combination of address that I can think of, I can't get past the error. Weird thing is, I was able to do this before, but now that my credit card has expired, I can't manage to add my new one. Any tips?

Hmm,
First time to register, but having the exact same problem. No issues with Itunes, but Market place cant register.

Benzino · 11-02-2012 5:05pm

Have you tried registering directly in wallet.google.com instead of through the android market?

FishD · 13-02-2012 4:48pm

Thanks for the reply. Yes registered with google.wallet, worked fine. Got my first paid android app. 'tasker'

Cheers

how do you get around the 'not available in your country' message on the phone?

Alun · 14-02-2012 11:00am

I had the exact same problem when going through Android Marketplace either on the phone or on the web.

"We're sorry. Your profile contains an invalid address"

It's a bog-standard street address, just a number and street name, Bray, Co. Wicklow, nothing funny in there at all.

Going through the Google Wallet site (https://google.wallet.com) though it worked first time. Strange.

am registered fine on the pc - credit card registered etc address all ok but when i open the app on my phone i get the 'not available...' message.

is anyone in ireland using the google wallet app on their phone?

cheers

Did you read that link?

Now, what needs to happen next depends on where you are:
I'm not in the US!
If you're NOT in the US, you'll need to be rooted. Grab Market Enabler from the Android Market and install it.
Run Market Enabler and set yourself as "US T-Mobile".
Now follow the US instructions.

sorry - should have clarified.....

wallet app is setup fine with market enabler and even got the 10 dollars free:D

question is has anyone got the app to continue to work without market enabler

subway · 15-02-2012 1:11am

If it's anything like it was when there was no market here, you will need to run market enable at every boot

C-Shore · 05-04-2012 7:42pm

So now that this announcement has been made, will those terminals work with Google Wallet?

I know it'll need market enabler to get it working on the phone, but is there anything to stop it working with the cards you put onto Wallet?

Like regional settings, restrictions on the terminals etc.

I've managed to download apps to my new phone (Xperia U) when they are free. Both of the apps that I want to purchase show up as being compatible, but when I get to the point of download, they say there is a problem 'download declined'.
I think its something to do with the payment (I've registered a cr card with Google Wallet ok) but I can't figure it out. Tried to download from the phone, and from pc.
Have I missed something?

misseshogan · 04-03-2014 9:48am

I have just recieved an email from google, i have attached a screen shot, i have never used google wallet so i am afraid to click the link in case its a scam, what exactly is it??
Thanx in advance, Sarah...

seems legit, but to be safe, dont click the link in the email.
just go to https://wallet.google.com/manage/ directly

This happened me when I purchased the Nexus 5 phone from Google Play. The phone shipped ok and about 2 days later I think they noticed I wasn't in the UK so sent that email. I had an issue with the phone and had to return it so had to scan in my passport and bank statement. A phone bill wasn't accepted.
