    You can stop auto-renewal by selecting 'Cancel Subscription' in your account settings. It doesn't immediately cancel PS+ and you'll still get to enjoy without worrying about getting charged the full amount.

    For any Irish users here, it's €1, €3, and €5. I'm assuming it'll be the same on other Euro stores.

    I'm going to wait until Sunday to activate it, then I can max out the March Essential games that go live on Tuesday. Thanks OP.🔥

    What do you mean, am I missing something?

    I've never had PS+ but am planning on getting a ps5 later this year. Does anyone know if I take this and claim the free games (whatever they are) and then let it lapse whether I'll still 'own' them when I get a ps5 and resubscribe?
    The.Tommy.Bar's avatar
    Yes, you need to claim the free games and add them to library. Once your PS+ expires the games will be locked but you can play them again if you resubscribe.

    Don't forget to cancel the subscription otherwise you will be charged the full amount after the month ends
    Son-Goku's avatar
    That's what Sony are banking on.
  6. rellymr's avatar
    Are the February games still available to claim? They were good
    IFRIT's avatar
    Yes. Essential games reset the first Tuesday of the month. (edited)

    Showing £5 on mine?
    Jonathan_Brooks's avatar
    I think that’s showing the premium option, it shows £5 then £3 then £1 with £5 coming up first

    For you guys that are signing up and have a PS5 you need to be aware that you have access to the PS5 games collection which is the below 19 games, so add these to your library and you can play them forever as long as you're a subscriber.

    This collection is getting removed on the 9th May 2023 so act now and add to your library.

  11. GujSehambi's avatar

    You can use the app or the store on a browser
  12. Realhoneyman's avatar
    I'm curious if PS Extra is worth getting under this current offer? If not I'll go with Extra or Essential.

    Premium I would say is worth a shot at this price
  13. Toneluck's avatar
    This is exactly the sort of thing I was hoping for when I let my sub lapse at end of Feb! Now for Premium...
  14. misterbiscuit's avatar
    Thanks for posting. I let my subscription expire for the first time since the PS3 days (haven’t been making as much use lately since getting GP ) but I do want to resubscribe, I was just hoping for some deals to appear for lapsed members
  15. Timothy_Evans's avatar
    My subscription expires at the same time this deal expires. Rotten luck!
    nerd's avatar
    same but sadly i bought an year of ps plus the day before this offer came up
  16. hurley31's avatar
    Nice one! Felt like playing TLOU again since the TV show emerged and I have it saved in my account. I was going to buy a one month sub anyway so this is very timely.
  17. jalaldevil's avatar
    What’s the cheapest yearly subscription at the moment?
    Poksd's avatar
    Also curious to know. Best way I’ve seen so far seems to be buying a discounted code through a retailer like shopto and then buying through the ps store (edited)
  18. Poksd's avatar

    Discount on upgrading to extra or premium from essential might also be possible. This is probably only for users nearing the end of their subscription. Hardly worth it unless you can stack ie buy more essential and upgrade. Unfortunately can’t guarantee the option to upgrade will still be discounted after doing this. It would be roughly £72 for 1yr extra and £82 for premium if possible

    Anyone else presented with 'Something went wrong' message when trying to subscribe on a browser?

    Happens when you press Order & pay.....
  20. Seany_Jay's avatar
    Can this be bought and activated at a later date? I still have a few weeks left on my current subscription...
    nerd's avatar
    it only shows a discounted price to upgrade ur sub only so u cant stack this offer
  21. UnseenPrawn's avatar
    Bought heat
  22. weeklycoconut's avatar
    Might need to buy if PS Turkey doesn't sort for PS4 users!
  23. sdaspland's avatar
    Receiving some shocking customer service from PlayStation at the moment . Subscription was coming to an end and received an email offering 25% my next year, click on link and it’s full price. Contacted support on Wednesday and they say I have to wait a week for team to look into it, at which point offer would have expired, and in the time being without Psn. Why can’t they just fulfill what they offer 😡
    ngs's avatar
    Yes. exactly same here; Sony never applied the 25% discount when trying to buy the years Sub.
  24. mikefearn83's avatar
    Thanks op.
  25. Jonathan_Brooks's avatar
    Ah it expires 2 days before the new month of games so won’t get aprils games I doubt
    Lifeline's avatar
    Unfortunately not, but you will get February's and March's games.
  26. jas1505's avatar
    Appreciate this. I have been looking for a free trial for a while, I guess this is close enough
  27. Nick747a's avatar
    Perfect ive just been given a ps4 with broken disc drive. Lets see how this compares to xbox game pass
  28. Lucy_Bt4Q's avatar
    I bought a month on the 28th so I'm gonna ask them a refund! I hope I get it
  29. Jonathan_Brooks's avatar
    How likely are we to sign up for this deal and then within the same month they’ll offer a decent discount offer on the whole year? Meaning those of us who took this bait, won’t get access to that
    SnoopZ's avatar
    There's always a Black Friday deal, can't remember if earlier dates.
  30. Eddie1337's avatar
    Amazing! I was planning to buy it tomorrow! Thanks!
  31. markyo007's avatar
    I’m going to buy the premium, £5 for the month and you can game trial TLOU and others for a few hours
  32. dbb298's avatar
    Great deal. I had ps now for two years and it was really good particularly for finding hidden gems. Decided not to renew last year as there were loads of games not on the service I wanted to play so happily been working through them.

    Decided to go for 1 month of extra and going to try and platinum Horizon Forbidden West and Outer Wilds. Hope to also get the online trophies for Wildlands as well.
  33. leethewelder's avatar
    Not even if it's free but it's a good deal for those that are looking for it.
  34. JamesBrown-2b3d5.91366's avatar
    3 quid to play the new horizon and interlude intergrade bargain. Heat added
  35. Carlos_Carlitos's avatar
    Nice one now I can try out stray on PS5
  36. Ukmandude's avatar
    I wish they’d offer a free or very cheap tier for online-only play.

    I have one game that I play online so £80/y isn’t close to worthwhile. And of the free monthly games I’ve had maybe two or three in the last few years that I’ve actually played (a few I already owned too).
    SnoopZ's avatar
    The Essential tier is £50 a year that will let you play online, you can get this cheaper by purchasing top-up cards from places like Shopto or CDkeys and then buying the sub from the Sony Store.
  37. thatwasclose's avatar
    So I guess the Essentials teir is good if you only wanted online access, grab the monthly games and have access to your previously redeemed games, but for an extra £2 for the Extra option, you get to download and try out a few games (but not streamed)?

    Also, was anyone else tried logging in but encountered authentication errors, effectively forcing you to reset your password?
    SnoopZ's avatar
    If you plan on subbing for 13 months I would recommend the Extra tier there are loads of top games in that. You can get the Extra tier for £84 a year by buying topups from shopto.

    I'm subbed to Premium until September 2024, I'm not sure I've used any premium benefits so I wish I was only on Extra.

    No issues logging in but I'm always logged in once setup.
  38. TomTomTomTom2222's avatar
    these ps ties are so confusing!
    SnoopZ's avatar
    Not at all
    PS+ Essential(same as old PS+) that gives you online multiplayer and monthly games.
    PS+ Extra adds a huge selection of games you can play.
    PS+ Premium all of the above but let's you stream some games and gives you access to some older PS1 and PS2 games.

    In my opinion Extra is the one to go with if you want a huge catalogue of games and not fussed about streaming. (edited)
  39. Dethbreed's avatar
    only the £1 for a month of plus has ended - the other subscriptions have been extended until the 09th if you want extra or premium subscription added.
