If you ever have a scammer ask for a Google Play card send them this. It will waste their time. I did it once and it made them very angry.

I recently had about $40 of Play Store credit that was inaccessible to me for weeks. Google support just kept telling me "Okay, wait 24 hours and it should be good now."

FINALLY someone got it straightened out, but during the course of it, I had to explain to support what Stadia was and why I didn't have a gift card number.

"Guess I'll have to end the Google Play credits program πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ" - Google, probably

So the TLDR seems to be:

  • Some users have reported issues using their Play balance
  • Google has not yet responded
  • Use another payment method as those are still fine
