How can I get my google-maps API key to display my Map in jsbin

I am trying to get my google map to display in jsbin so I can do some testing and development there rather than on my website but I can't get it to display and get the following message: Google has disabled use of the Maps API for this application. See the Terms of Service for more information: http://www.google.com/intl/en-US_US/help/terms_maps.html.

I've edited the referrers for my key to include www.jsbin.com and jsbin.com but I still get the same message.

You do not need a key, google maps v3 does not nessecarily require it. See https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/tutorial?csw=1#api_key :

All Maps API applications* should load the Maps API using an API key. Using an API key enables you to monitor your application's Maps API usage, and ensures that Google can contact you about your application if necessary. If your application's Maps API usage exceeds the Usage Limits, you must load the Maps API using an API key in order to purchase additional quota.

Notice the should. It is very unlikely you'll meet the 25.000 limit views per day when you are testing, so why not just forget about the key - like in this jsbin example -> http://jsbin.com/jiboxaso/1/edit ??
