Google Play Store full access for SA?

Google should just open up everything for everyone and see if they get sued. If they do they should just buy whom ever is sueing them

zomg I can buy from my desktop but when I try and buy from my phone I get "error retrieving your information"

So I fired up my new Nexus 7 this morning, to my surprise i could access Apps, Music, Books, Mags, and Movies & TV.

I decided to give it a test and make random purchase of some cheap music and books lo and behold it worked.

I thought SA doesn't have full access to the store, when did things change?

I'm connected to WiFi at work, i haven't tried it over 3G

This happened to me today. Im not sure if it is because I set up a US address for a credit card many many moons ago, but to my surprise I now have full access to the US play store. I feel like an American now :)

Now im just licking my lips at the endless possibilities. No more sad faces when I read 'US ONLY' hehehe. So, now to buy myself a Nexus 5 :)

Oh no youre kidding? Did you have a US postal address linked to one of your credit cards by any chance and then maybe changed that? A while ago I set up a US postal address and a whole long shpiel to get the Music All Access. Last month I changed that card and address to my primary ones and all of a sudden today it just popped up like that. I hope it doesnt change, I feel so special

Nope, 4.4.4 on Nexus 4. Apparently 'L' is unstable for a daily driver. I assume that was your question?

You are going to need to eat a lot more to feel american, unless you already weigh 120+kg's

Hahaha... I think I should record my average 85kg and monitor it for the next few months :O
 
I have access to Apps, Games and Books, and so does my wife. Been like this for a while.

Screenshot incoming!
 
With the price of data I don't really care about movies or music :)
 
yeah I agree. Its a bit of a joke the pricing. But it does enable you to do a whole lot of other things too

That's the strangest thing, I changed NOTHING. I had a US postal address setup and it's still the same Google just somehow figured me out. I even tried to use UNOtelly + US postal address... NOPE. If I use my browser and go to the playstore I can see everything, soon as I login with my username POOF SA only!
