Hm, that's nice of them, although this page states you aren't allowed to do that: "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."

Cool, much appreciated!
The input box doesn't come up for me, all I get is "The promo DIVEIN10 for $10.00 was applied to your account." which if I remember correctly, was when DO did codes over Twitter quite a while ago :p
Go to cloud.digitalocean.com/support and create a new ticket, giving them your promo code and asking nicely, and they'll put it through promptly in my experience
I don't know if GitHub added it afterwards, but when you click to get the promo code from DO, they say underneath

"Contact DigitalOcean support with your unique promo code if you have previously redeemed a promotional offer, credit card required for activation"

I had the same issue and just opened a ticket and within 15 minutes I had the credit added. It sounds like I am not the only person either.
