    The principle? Dude, we're trying to wriggle out of paying over £100 for the ultimate edition of a new game. Bringing up 'principles' is a bit ridiculous X).

    I just contacted sony entertainment via there customer support number to … I just contacted sony entertainment via there customer support number to try to find out if they will honor this. Apparently they cant say for certain what will happen because its not anything to do with SCEE but some other territory. But she did say they dont have to allow people to download it for the lower price because it is a pricing error and a pre order therefore there was no sale took place at the time of ordering. She also said downloading from the czech store was a breach of terms. We might be out of luck.



    Firstly, you're either a troll or a moron and that isn't up for debate.

    Secondly, CZ is covered by SCEE so, assuming that you're telling the truth, the customer support (ha!) person you spoke with was either ill informed or just simply lying to you.

    You're probably right, but they didn't cancel orders when a glitch … You're probably right, but they didn't cancel orders when a glitch enabled users to purchase Killzone: Shadow Fall for 89p, so there's a very small chance we'll get lucky.



    Don't get me wrong, I hope it takes off, I saw this 12 hours ago and refrained from posting it, it's a pre purchase no money swapping hands, there is no harm done by trying, just put card details on account, don't go buying Czech PSN cards you will have no use for.

    P.S the Killzone glitch was a pay and download.

    And that's the point, you probably will be unfortunately. Whilst it was … And that's the point, you probably will be unfortunately. Whilst it was nice of Jaystan/whoever found this to share it, there are a couple of things to keep in mind. 1. If you do manage to top up 150Kc to pay for it and it falls through then that credit will be stuck on the Czech account permanently. Sony won't refund it and they won't show you any mercy. 2. Unlike Microsoft and Steam, Sony don't charge for digital pre-orders until 24-48 hours before launch. This is to cover their own **** as they currently have pre orders on there for games that might not be due out for another 12 months whereas Xbox and Valve don't offer that. Even if you can top up 150Kc and process an order, they can cancel it without explanation between now and the game's launch and there will be nothing that anybody can do. They won't deduct any money from your wallet now and they won't let you download anything now either. In fact, Sony will accept a pre-order even if you don't currently have a valid funding source to pay for it on your account (e.g. wallet balance or a card) because it is that easy for them to cancel the order. They cancelled one of mine last month and there were already wallet funds on that account to pay for the game but they just didn't seem to want to charge me. It is obviously a great deal but it also includes quite a bit of risk dependant upon how much you value your £4 I suppose.



    but I suppose if that does happen you can buy something, maybe a PS3 or Vita game or even a PS4 indie game with the £4 wallet

    lol then you're not necessarily taking that much of a risk unless they fancy trawling through their records and linking names.
    Sony's instructions on the pre-order don't change the fact the pre-order is considered to be an offer made by you so the requirement for funds is a pre-requisite to making an offer. Hence it doesn't matter what they've said, you choose to make the offer, you're not forced.
    I only care because someone with linked accounts might read what you said, request a refund and find their main account at risk. I've had a friend with their account at risk in discussions over a cash refund and it wasn't for anything dubious they'd done either.

    Ha, the sense of entitlement on here is amazing!

    Great offer if this works and voted hot but if it doesn't then you knew the risk going in to it, your loss. Companies like Sony cover their butts in T&C's for exactly reasons like this. Mistakes happen.

    Got a pre-order lodged but going to give it a few days before adding funds to see if they cancel.
  15. SupraGaz's avatar
    Given it a shot, Cheers!

    Also added 150KC via the PS4 via setting, PSN, Acc Man, Add funds. When doing it on the website the different post codes would conflict but went straight through no problems on the PS4 itself.
  16. ginoworm's avatar
    the way I see it is if it works amazing, if not I'll spend the funds on a cheap psn game.

    Why would you do that? couldn;t you just wait and see? attracting attention to it will quite simply get it cancelled, i can't believe the stupidity of some people

    To those that have received a cancellation notice for the PS3 To those that have received a cancellation notice for the PS3 version. Did any of you have the necessary funds in your wallet? Because I topped up my wallet with 150 Kc the other day and I haven't received a cancellation notice.



    Yes.

    I just checked my PS4 and have received the message posted. It's strange that it says PS3, rather than PS4. However, the pre-order countdown is on my PS4, the content still appears on my download list (online) and my purchase order for the mispriced amount is still active in my transaction history.

    I have just done this, even though I still have my tesco copy on pre order at like £30

    Made a fake account, found an address to use, my credit card didn't flag either, awaiting the usual phone call from the Santander fraud department now!
  29. COYY's avatar
    Shows as 129,99 for me, which is as OP listed the deal. Heat added!

    How do I pay? I clicked confirm and it sent me directly to the confirmation page without asking for payment. Strange.

    Or do I just have to add my card and they'll take payment at a later date? I've only ever placed a pre-order using top-up cards before.

  33. The_Punisher's avatar
    I managed to get my card to work and have topped up the lowest amount it will let me, problem is though with everything I have pre-ordered before they always take the cash directly from the card despite there being enough funds in the wallet to cover it!

    I don't want to leave my card on the Czech account though just in case they try to charge the full price! I guess I will just delete the details and hope they take the cash from my wallet.

    Nice find OP!

    You will need a Czech credit card or a Czech PSN voucher to pay, won't work otherwise.

    Lot's of people using cards from different places saying it worked.



    Yes, they probably just clicked pre order, but the card will fail when sony go to debit the card!

    Need to try to add funds now with the same card, if it fails now, it will fail on release day

    I simply added my real uk address, and omitted the postcode on the billing, psn accepts it, but i can't add credit to my account

    i also tried a cz postcode with my uk address, again psn accepts it, but fails when i try to top up wallet

    this needs prepay for most people, so who's gonna go find a working site?

    Add your card details on your PC, with your real card address, except with a Czech republic postcode. It will then say "Sorry your card information is invalid" when you try to buy. Now create an account on your PS4 with the Czech log on details you just used to create your new Czech account on PC.

    Try to "buy" a low priced game (Hotline miami is similar priced), and go through checkout, but instead of "Confirm and pay" go on "Add Funds" instead (cant remember on which screen this is, it's during checkout). You can then add the minimum of £4 worth of Czech-money to your account, and it will accept the card details you entered on PC. Then simply back out of buying Hotline Miami and the fund are in your account ready!
