    How's that one work? On mobile and don't see option

    think the option to pay by credit comes up when you setup payment on the account

    Thanks for the Dublin zoo link, giving them 4 quid.

    Anyone find a music app that accepts credit?

    The only app where you can buy music seems to be Apple. Google Play Music used to but not now.

    This 12.99 GoMo offer or 7.99 48 offer, what do you think?

    I think I'd rather hang onto my credit to be honest. Plus I was on 48 before and it took me ages to get it up and running. I had to download a load of settings to my device. It wasn't a matter of just popping in the SIM.

    Maybe it's different now with Three running it.

    Tried paying for humble bundles. Using google pay with 3 credit. It says they take it but I'm not even seeing the Google pay option. Never used Google pay before but it installed and showed an app I purchased some months back, so I'm assuming it's linked. Any ideas what could be wrong ?

    Didn't realise they think ok 3 as a payment option, where did you see this?

    A really handy one if you use cloud storage is being able to use credit to pay for a storage upgrade for Google One/ Google Drive.

    I had a bit of unused credit on Vodafone and just paid €29.99 for a years 200GB cloud storage on Google with the credit. Was approaching my free limit anyway so was going to buy at some stage. Dead handy to pay it all upfront for the year with credit!

    Yeah, and with free unlimited storage on Google Photos going away, a lot of people might need to buy Google Drive storage in the coming months.

    For any Football Manager fans out there, the mobile version is out today on the android store for 9.99. I buy it every year, passes a lot of time on commutes


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,501 ✭✭✭Curb Your Enthusiasm


    Anyone else having issues today buying apps with Vodafone credit? Shows as unsuccessful transaction on Google Play but Vodafone charges still show up.

    Couldn't see any option for 3 pay on Humble Bundle

    Hey all, you can use your credit to buy games on the epic game store. Just purchased Horizon Zero Dawn

    I had €159 excess credit with Three and was able get that down to 60c using this method! It seems Three only allow spending of €100 phone credit per day.

    I have not been in a position to change provider due to credit buildup so thanks a lot for this suggestion! :D Got several games I was looking for in the epic sale!

    Can you cast from YouTube music to a chromecast? Can't see the option to

    Do you mean you can't see the cast icon, or you can't see your Chromecast to cast to? I can cast to any of my devices no problems. The icon is on the top of the main screen, or on the album art when playing.

    It's there on mine, just to right of YouTube music logo. I cast no problem.

    Oh well, give me an easy life and a peaceful death.

    You can also pay for a year with credit. I think it's €30.
