    How did you apply all those coupons ? I can only enter one coupon...

    Add coupon code. Refresh page. Add coupon code. Refresh page. Repeat.

  • Multi promo codes doesn't work on all account I guess. I have one which succesfully applied 11 coupons listed above, and another account can only apply 1 code.

    I can also only add one code, and simply refreshing the page doesn't work - the spot where you would enter the second promo code now reads "The promo XXX for $10.00 was applied to your account".

    There is no textbox to enter a second code.

    Maybe a restriction on new accounts?

    Edit: Their billing FAQ also says: "Keep in mind that we only allow one promo code per account, so if you’ve redeemed one in the past you may not add another. To see your promo code history please visit your billing page."

    Worked for me. :) I never knew more than 1 coupon code was allowed until today. The last time I checked the moment you add a coupon code, it gets stuck in the Billing page and you cant add other codes.

    Ya maybe the restriction of 1 code is true for new accounts.

    I've updated the edu mail address in the github account, and the "Get your Pack" link didn't reply any DO promo code, but always show me:

    You have submitted 1 request:
    Oct 10, 2014 for @xxxx – Approved

    and then said i've got an active coupon, but there's only 25% off for github itself in the mail

    We can't apply a discount to your account because you have an active coupon. If you'd like to remove your current coupon, please contact support.

    anyone met this? what does that mean? I have to wait the pack until Oct 10? where to get the DO $100 promo code?

  • Unfortunately, we weren't able to approve your educational discount request. You're >welcome to re-apply, or follow up with any questions by replying to this email.

    I wonder if it's because my school doesn't use .edu, and instead uses a .us email?

    I wonder how DO can afford this. I only paid them 5$ and now have almost 130$ of credit in my account...

  • SplitIceSplitIce Member, Host Rep

    50% discount for one month at DO :) Nice.

  • skybucks100 said: I wonder if it's because my school doesn't use .edu, and instead uses a .us email?

    That can't be the reason. My university uses a .de mail address and it worked fine. Although i didn't need to upload a student ID or anything like that..

    Anybody wants to signup at DO with my email and apply all coupons? I am having trouble doing it on mobile.

    did you get the DO coupon in the acceptance mail? i applied as a teacher and got two years micro plan but no credit or other goodies. where should i look for coupon codes?

  • tridinebandim said: applied as a teacher and got two years micro plan but no credit or other goodies. where should i look for coupon codes

    You log into Github and visit this site: https://education.github.com/pack

    Just click "Activate" or whatever at the DO offer and you'll get a code.

    How can one key in the code now that the multi-coupon feature at DO is disabled?

    EDIT: The code from the Github Education Pack*

    @ranaldlys You can't.

    I entered my GitHub one then entered one of the promo ones above and the box then disappeared. I got $110 credit (plus I had the initial $60 I got when I signed up with the WeWork Promo a year ago). Do the promo code boxes appear yearly then because up until very recently I couldn't apply a promo code (the same as I can't enter another now..)?

    there is a big "get your pack" button and offers have no activate button :/

    when click to "get your pack" buton i see that my application approved.

    i ll try to contact them, i am a graduate student as well :)

    I applied as Researcher but only get 25% off for the request, which means $5.25/m for macro plan... no DO coupon code & anyother goodies. but I create a ticket directly in DO said I've got the github student pack approved, and then the DO support manually applied $100 credit in account.
