    Just wondering.

    The (mobile) Play Store gives you the option of using credit to pay for apps, but can you do it for devices too?

    Cheers for the answer. Could have swore I saw someone saying on the Chromecast thread that that's how they bought it, but obviously must have been daydreaming!

    I have enough credit to buy a Nexus if that were the case!

    But alas you can't buy hardware from a mobile. Also if memory serves me right Three also limit how much you can spend on carrier billing per month. Can't remember the exact figure but I think it was around €25.

    Think its €60, only started using it a few days ago so I've skimmed the ToS recently.

    That was me I reckon, I was hoping to buy it that way but I was corrected here.
    I just use my excess credit to get a Google music sub.

    Could you buy the chromecast from your 3 mobile broadband dongle credit as opposed to your phone credit
