sorted byEdit: just seen offer ends on 17th and still showing as £59.99 to resub:( (edited)
In an apparent overhaul of ps plus prices internationally in September this year, Sony has made prices in all developing countries roughly the same. Which comes to arround £38 for ps plus essential. I have checked turkey, Indonesia, and India. Now, this deal also costs you around £38 if you use shopto psn gift cards.
For existing customers who can't take advantage of this deal:
My subscription is expiring on 22nd Dec. Now, as far as I remember, there was no ps plus subs deal for existing customers last year (please feel free to correct me if I am wrong). I can wait for the sub to expire and then wait for a deal. But that is an if. Plus, kids will be on Christmas break and would need online play. What I am thinking to do is make another ID, and join ps plus essential on that id for the discounted price. Next year, I will use the old ID with the lapsed membership to get another deal.
In the meantime, if a deal comes up for existing members, I will stack stack stack.
I was able to get the discount but via the PlayStation plus area on my PlayStation 5. The offer wasn’t on the website version for me.
To note my ps plus ran out this morning so may only be for new or lapsed sub
its 27p a day for Extra which is ridiculously good value for the entertainment that brings
you get one game at the arcade for a quid lol
people that moan about PS plus are weird
Also worth trying is sign in via the app and see if you see it there too (edited)
You'll manage a wee bit not gaming online and playing your library.. pretty sure they do these deals to meet lack of demand which is usually high at least until around this month.
I'm gonna imagine they'll trend it and drop the subs til around mid January. They might not.. but it's a risk worth taking as yeah, it's ok value to go with Extra (Essential only gets you free monthly games to keep as before, and Premium is all the current PS4/5 games on Extra BUT also includes really old PS1&2 games)
Politics are hugely in play now along with our pretty weak lonely island economy.. but look at places like Turkey/India generally getting mega cheap pricing.. low subs and auto renewal = cheaper prices.
The 30% deal ends on 17th giving time for a new Christmas day / new year deal
And the people that say it isn't worth it, anything under £40 for 365 days is value really considering you can go out on a Friday night and easily spend £100 on a few drinks , 2am food and a taxi home...
We have Gamepass so Im not paying a fortune for a service only he will use
This is NOT a discount or a sale, it's a MARKETING thing to encourage people to purchase an annual plan instead of a monthly plan!!

Paid £50 for 1 year of PS Plus Extra using ShopTo credit last year. The cheapskate in me can’t help but feel like I’m getting ripped off by paying an extra ~40% this year, when I still pay around £2-3 for gamepass codes each month, for a service that has more content
I'm glad I didn't renew, it's actually much more fun for me to buy a game on disc, beat it, sell and move on.
As for multiplayer games, there's pc.
I feel i should hold off for now..
Now they want £42? Do one ...
There's no way I'm paying £59.99 when I've got Game pass until April 2025.
Well to really commit and not renew, I've just deleted a huge array of games that were locked and reinstalled all the ones I own, from disc again. Like others saying, have a huge backlog i haven't even played or finished, what's the point in having extra all you do is essentially collect games to never play. Now the price has gone up, with lesser great games being offered, I can't justify it. Thanks for waking me up Sony
