Pinoy PlayStation

Well, looks like the US PSN card codes on Best Buy are going to be permanently out of stock....
From what I have heard is that Best Buy had to deal with alot of scammers, false charges, and charge backs due
to all the foreign credit card companies. Tsk tsk tsk, a good thing for all has to be screwed up due to a few (or more)
bad apples who like in all common societies, take advantage and abuse the system.

Ganyan rin ang nangyari kung bakit hindi na nagbebenta ng PSN downloadable code ang Amazon.

Yung $5 activation code na from pcgamesupply one time lang or every time you purchase a code?

every purchase yata siya mam.

Exactly. Exact same thing that happened with Amazon happened with Best Buy. Jeez....
It was a legitimate and convenient service these huge online retailers were offering,
but then people from around the world, had to go and start scamming them. It's not right,
and the people who desperately need and adore their services are no longer able to purchase them.

But.............if you search and research hard enough (now remember, G-oo-gle is your friend)
you can find a few legit sites that offer these online card codes at a relatively cheaper than retail price.

And don't ask me.....shhhhh it's a secret.

Yung 1 year na Playstation Plus gumagana parin sa Bestbuy.
Nakabili ako nung Saturday gabi (Philippine credit card and yung Bestbuy na international buyer address [Houston address]).
Nagkaroon lang nga tax so total nagiging 54.xx usd. Pero okay na rin siya kung PS+ yung bibilhin niyo.

I just want to ask of which is cheaper between US PSN cards and HK PSN cards?
In terms of game's price on each respective networks?
In terms of local market prices?

US PSN - $20 = Php 1,050
HK PSN HKD 200 = ?

Kayo? base on experience?

1250 Pesos ang 200 HK$ PSN card sa Datablitz...Makakabili ka ng isang Virtua Fighter 5 Final Showdown at dalawang PS One Classics game sa 200 HK$.

Mas mahal ang HK PSN card. Parang mas mataas din ang presyo ng HK PSN games.

quick question lang, US TEXT SPEAK VIOLATION PSN acct ko pero asian TEXT SPEAK VIOLATION PS vita console, magagamit ko pa din ba TEXT SPEAK VIOLATION PSN card to download or conflict ?

Hardware models from different regions doesn't matter, what matters is the region of the PSN account.
As long as your account on the Vita is USA and your trying to redeem a USA PSN card on it. Then your good.

Also, you can only redeem and use the associated PSN cards/codes with their respective regions....
As in, you can only redeem Asian PSN cards on Asian accounts, USA PSN cards on USA accounts,
EU PSN cards on EU accounts and so forth....

They are not compatible with other regions.

Ah. Eh di mas maganda talaga may US account ka pangbili ng games sa psn. Bakit kasi wala pang PSN ang Philippines. T_T

Kung may PS Store Philippines eh same lang ng sa HK ang laman nun pero in Peso ang bayaran.

ano explanation ng best buy bakit hindi sila nag restock?

kung dahil sa scammers, pano yun? yung mismong cc provider/issuer or individual cc users?

*kung kelan nangangailangan at tight budget

hay... sana pwede na rin via paypal ang PSN

Diba na-announce lang lately na pwede na Paypal ang EU PSN via SEN account management? Baka sumunod na rin ang US. Pero ang nakalagay dun sa docs eh dapat same region registered ang Paypal account. So no choice pa rin tayo kundi PSN card.

Please note that your PayPalâ„¢ account must be registered in the same country as your Sony Entertainment Network account. For example, if your Sony Entertainment Network account was set up in France, you will only be able to use PayPalâ„¢ if your PayPalâ„¢ account billing address is also in France.

kahigpit naman...
sa xbox live pwede naman yung ph paypal account ko with local credit card,
may currency conversion naman bago i-charge ng paypal ang CC.

I had a bad experience sa datablitz this last few days. Bumili ako ng Just Dance 4 PS3 with the intention of buying Gangnam Style DLC for this christmas, bago ako bumili, pinatawag ko muna yung Sales Assistant nila sa Tech, pinatanong ko kung gagana yung US DLC sa R3 Disc. Sabi ng Tech "oo". So, bumili ako.

Pagdating ko sa bahay, binili ko agad yung DLC. Pagkatesting, ayaw. Tumawag ako sa Tech mismo (I was a previous employee there), inexplain ko yung problem. Ang sabi sakin "Ay, akala ko pang Xbox yung tinatanong mo na compatibility." Sabi ko "Hah? Kayo nagusap ng SA tapos ndi rin kayo nagkaintindihan?"

So, tinawagan ko yung friend ko na nagwowork din dun as Customer Service and inexplain ko rin yung problem, medyo nagusap din kani then umabot sa punto na, "Anong gusto mong mangyari?" Sabi ko "Gusto ko lang naman may managot para hindi na ito maulit." Sabi nya sakin "I don't understand you. It's something that's too shallow to make a big deal out of."

I tell you their customer service sucks. Kahit regular ka o hindi, pagnagkamali ang employee nila, problema mo yan.

I lost $2.99 and P1,400 out of this fiasco.

*I bought PSN Cards from them for a while now. All I can say is if you have problems loading PSN Cards to your amount then its your problem.

^
That was unfortunate but at least $ 2.99 lang nawala sayo at hindi buong psn load.
Better talaga mag-research ka muna din before ka bumili since not all the time tama yung sinasabi nila.

I did but all I can see are instructions for Wii U since it was released recently. Wala talaga akong nakita kahit saan regarding this one. Kahit sa ubisoft forums wala. Which is strange kasi some of their games are R1-R3 compatible.

^ That's my problem too. I bought Just Dance 4 for that DLC tapos walang update for R3. Nakakainis kasi sabi out na for PS3 pero wala sa R3. Buti na lang di pa ako bumili ng load.
