I am not able to pay this auction using paypal. I am in the US and keep getting the same error. Paypal is of no help either. They keep telling me I need to email them from a confirmed email address, even though I am. This is fucking frustrating!

Not sure why, but I got logged into the UK version of paypal. I was able to work with Paypal customer service and they fixed my account, and I was able to order 2 cards. Apparently their security system blocked my credit card, but they cleared that up.

I'm getting the same errors as everyone else. Tried on my laptop and phone, no luck with either.

 

[insignia16]

Still not working for me! I've been at it for 2 days now :'(

 

[Sorcerer Supreme]

I really wanted to buy some vita games :\

 

[WarWolf]

I got a code successfully on the 18th but I've been getting this every attempt since then trying to get a second.

 

[AngryNapkin]

I would buy 2 but I've been trying for like 3 days now. I've tried on iOS, Safari (OSX), chrome on Mac, IE9 and 11, Firefox and android devices. I've tried various different networks including Wifi, LTE, airport wifi, work, etc.

It's not us, there is just something wrong on the distant end.

Buying 2 for 80 is like getting 35 dollars for free right now.

 

[Corpekata]

Working on mobile for me (safari on Iphone 4s), but not desktop. At least, it went through on mobile a second ago, haven't gotten the code just yet.

 

[Henry Jones Jr]

Finally just made a new paypal account with a different email and it worked. Kind of a pain in the ass, but I didn't want to miss out.

 

[wilflare]

anyone wanna trade Amazon GCs for eBay GCs or PayPal :/
hope I can get these

 

[2Shea]

Thanks for the heads up on this. Missed out on it during the holidays. The $15 extra from PSN is a nice little gift as well.

wow, thanks for this. that worked. fucking stupid paypal bullshit though.

 

[Fisty]

Go into safe mode and rebuild the library. I've had to do that about 6 times since the last stability update. It's getting ridiculous.

Thanks, worked. Never had that problem before... now I know why everyones been talking about having to do that. Cheers.

Does the PSN "Spend $100, Get $15 Back" offer stack?
Can I spend £200 and get £30 back?

nope they don't
Terrms and Conditions state that you only get a max of $15 back

 

[ksdixon]

Thanks man. I guess that was greedy of me to hope for.

Still... I'm still making a killer saving on the ebay side of things by paying $40 for $50 psn credit, and $40 is only £25.90. So I'm still getting $50 psn credit for £26 money; or £100 psn credit for £52 money, since I'll be getting 2 cards.

this guy has sold over 20,000 - something screwy going on?

It's Paypal. They're likely partnered directly with Sony for this.

 

[Torraz]

Can I buy this from outside the US? I actually use a US account as my main one on the PS4.

:edit: says invalid address.

Can I use any random US address?

 

[goonergaz]

ah right, cheers - odd Sony let them do it during the $15 promo...oh well, more for us!

 

[Torraz]

Adding a fake US address to the ebay account seems to work!

Can anyone confirm that these codes are indeed sent only via email?

 

[-griffy-]

Same with me. Made sure all my info on Paypal was correct, same e-mails for Ebay and Paypal, tried mobile vs. desktop, etc. Just wouldn't go through. Frustrating.

 

[prateeko]

Man, that was super easy and then I turn around and spend a all of it to get 15 credit, that's like 35% off sale items!

 

[tearsintherain]

yes i have bought 5 (2 last nov 3 this month) and they are all sent via email. They send you a link to the ebay website which shows the 12 digit PSN code. It doesn't mention an expiration date but all PSN codes do have them, so don't hang onto the $50 code forever.

I do wish Sony would up the wallet limit though, $150 max in your wallet sucks.

Paypal Error. Damn, such a waste, not being able to take part in this deal.

 

[Creaking]

The same deal was available when last year's $15 promo was going on, so I'm guessing it's intentional.

 

[ksdixon]

My buddy says that "No, I went to that link, and when I try to buy it, it gives me an error. It says the items are not availabele"?

 

[ksdixon]

Is anyone else having issues?

 

[Flandy]

Trying to pay with paypal and I get this

Anyone know if this is an issue with the seller or my account?

 

[ksdixon]

I'm getting that too. so annoying. I dont have a credit card or anything like that.

 

[ksdixon]

what the hell the option to check-out using credit card has disappeared, leaving only the non-working paypal checkout options.

 

[ekgrey]

dammit, same here. i was trying to grab some for a non-US GAFfer. so do we think they're just sold out but haven't pulled the page or something? any other ideas?

Well there goes my interest, not putting my bank info with Paypal.

 

[TwoDurans]

Anyone received their code yet? I just completed a purchase but it says it'll arrive in a week. For a digital code. Via email.

Ordered one yesterday and I got it 10 minutes later

 

[WarWolf]

I was finally successful buying my second code. The issue seems to be an automated security measure and if you talk to customer service they should be able to fix it for you.

Do you need to contact paypal or ebay customer service?

I contacted the seller first, then he directed me to PayPal. PayPal customer service responded within minutes of each e-mail I sent.

Thanks, contacted Paypal and they fixed it so I was able to purchase. Just checked on that $15 back promo though and it ended yesterday .

 

[shungokusatsu]

Back in stock, just grabbed two.

 

[Hubble]

Great for Sony to drop the price in these

Spoiler

joking from the MS reduction thread lol

 

[MistaPropella]

If you are from Europe, then buy your Games through the canadian PSN you pay 35 EUR for 50 CAD.
Here's good site to buy your Gamecards from.

 

[Crayons]

Used this so I can buy the Vita games that are on sale

 

[L4DANathan]

So I bought two, then clicked on the link in the email they sent, but the webpage is really disjointed and crazy looking and I can't get my code. This is also the case with the entire Paypal Gifts site, anyone know this issue?

Edit: I was able to get the code by viewing the page's source code. That was weird.
