I didn't see this anywhere else, so apologies if I over-looked it somewhere.

Article at phonedog.com

Link to actual press release

From the article:

If you've been on the fence about picking up Virgin Mobile's LG Optimus Elite, the carrier has a new deal that may convince you to pull out your wallet. Virgin has announced that any customer that buys an Optimus Elite and activates a Google Wallet prepaid card within seven days of the phone purchase will receive a $25 Google Wallet credit. The promotion starts today (May, 18th) and will run through July 18th, meaning you've got plenty of time to gather up the $149.99 for a new Optimus Elite. It's also worth noting that the $25 credit will be given to you in two portions, with the first $10 getting delivered within 48 hours of your Wallet activation and then the remaining $15 arriving within three weeks.

Also, on a different note, the article goes on to mention that you get a $35 account bonus if you buy the Elite at VMUSA's site. Basically, a free month on the $35 plan.

Then again, if you want to upgrade from the OV, like me, Best Buy has the Elite for $129.99. So, there's that.

Truth be told, I still can't decide between the Elite and EVO V. Then again, I have ICS running great on my OV, which the Elite may or may not get. The will EVO have it, but no NFC. Decisions, decisions.....
 
I picked up my OE yesterday, signed up for Google Wallet and only received $10 on the pre-paid Google card... has this happened to anyone else?

Does anyone know why? Is it because I didn't use the Citi Mastercard?
