Anybody got the yahoo small biz adwords voucher to work still?

I setup a new gmail, then clicked the yahoo small business adwords voucher link, signed up for a new adwords account, and verified with my vcc, yet i never received any balance in my account.

I follow all the instructions layed out on the forum here and it just didn't work. does it take some time for the balance to be present? or does that particular offer not work?

I had to email them-- told them the link I signed up with.. and said something like// I was under the impression I would receive a free $50. If not please cancel my account-- I got one automated email--then next day the money was credited.

or buy a working account and go
