Gamestation store credit for launch buyers & to when they dropped there price-Free £25 Credit


64°

FOUND BY: Daytrader 2 years, 7 months ago

STARTS: 19/04/2007   

Not sure how may people this will apply to, or if its been brought up already (you'll have to excuse me if it has) but I thought id post it anyway. If you bought your PS3 from a Gamestation store either in person or via there online service, between launch and when they dropped there price, take you receipt in store or email it to them and they will give you £25 of any game or accessory you want... Not much but you may as well have it.

Dont let the sales assistant fob you off though, I spoke to there head office, they advised me that if I had ANY problems getting my £25 credit ask the store manager to ring them (head office) and they would sort it there and then in store..

I got this info from a thread on the official ps3 forums.

I done just that earlier this afternoon and got my £25 credit.

The forum member was matj4y, thx m8 for the info

gamestation stores were sent a confirmation email from head office to clarify that everyone is entitled to rebate of £25.

Do you have this in writing?

I hate all the PS3 and Wii posts, but this could help a lot of people, would be a nice one, if people can take a 'hard' copy into the shop.

m8 i bought my package a few days after launch i got the 3 game deal for £519, even if you got it weeks later you still get the deal as long as you paid the full price, all packages have gone down by £25.

if needed get the store to ring customer services number is = 0845 365 2000 but you wont need to as stores know about it by now, or just phone before you go to the store yourselfs for confirmation but its 100% genuine ok.

just take your proof of purchase in and they'll give you £25 store credit, thats a fact

well when i got my £25 credit i had all the ps3 stuff i wanted so they gave me credit, but its for anything in shop as someone on forum put it against xbox360 game, my friend also just got £25 back today, the forum is http://community.eu.playstation.com/...ad.php?t=80168 but its on more website forums now as well like avforums.

you will get the £25 so dont worry, as i read that all gamestation stores were sent a confirmation email from head office to clarify that everyone is entitled to rebate of £25.

its there head office that said its ok, all the forums that talk about this now all have received £25 back, you telling me that they did not let you have £25 ? if so go back to them man, ring 0845 365 2000 and they will tell the store to honour you but they should have had emails from head office anyway now.

OK, I work at a Gamestation.
Sony hasn't done a price drop for the PS3 in Europe yet.
Gamestation never dropped the price; it was only £399.99 when you trade in any game.
Also we never received an Email from head office, nor it wasn’t posted on Gnet (Our kind of store network, where we can check stock and bulletins,) also we had someone come in asking about this and our manager phoned head office they known nothing about it neither.

If this is true that certain people are getting £25 credit notes, I think that certain Gamestations decided to do this offer themselves.
