No. If there's one thing for sure, you need a PS3 to get the confirmation message. Others have said that they've checked their Vita and didn't get any message but when they check their PS3, the message is there.

I don't have a PS3 though..I guess I need my Vita to check my wallet balance then.

 

[I'm an expert]

It's a code that needs to be redeemed, it wouldn't automatically be added to your wallet balance anyway.

 

[TheContact]

MS would NEVER do this. They barely give you .50 cents for your birthday

 

[gkryhewy]

Hope this isn't an apology in advance for something.

 

[RPGCrazied]

Hope this isn't an apology in advance for something.

Why? Not everyone is getting it.

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

i could really use the $10 to buy either Trials or rocketbirds for my vita... just checked my Vita group messaging and nothing in my inbox from Sony

bought so many PSN games on my vita i would have thought i would have qualified... but oh well, im not entitled to anything free

Check ur PS3 inbox. I checked on my Vita first since I wasn't home and got nothing, but when I checked my PS3 I had it.

 

[Camjo-Z]

saw this thread and was like "aw yeah thanks for the free money sony!"

then checked inbox and was like ;_;

I'm a PS+ subscriber and I've spent plenty of cash on downloadable games too, a little over $60 so far this year actually. Maybe I'll get one later!

 

[Singularity42]

Got $10 too

Awesome thing to do from Sony

I've been a PS+ sub for nearly 2 years if that matters

 

[The Elite]

Nothing for me. Maybe because I already have money in my account?

I had a balance in my account and still received it.

 

[RPGCrazied]

And I seriously doubt every PS3 user is going to get this. I don't know how many PS3's are out there, but I'm sure its millions. $10 a pop, that's a lot of money.

 

[DanteGhost]

Can't believe I got the message. Guess I'll be playing Journey know

 

[Bladenic]

I'll use this either for the AC3 DLC or Chrono Cross and something else.

 

[Bumblebeetuna]

Nothing for me

 

[Razorskin]

Got it here in Canada, not sure what I'll buy but now I have $20 in my account.
Bought lots of stuff on the store and been active since launch. Had Plus for over a year, not anymore.

 

[TheSeks]

I don't have a PS3 though..I guess I need my Vita to check my wallet balance then.

You're not going to get the $10 unless you have a PS3. The message is a link to the store. It isn't a balance increase unless you initialize the link to the store to input the code Sony gives you automatically.

 

[Skyfireblaze]

Nothing in my rarely used US account But I found 50€ in my actual real-life wallet I shouldn't have or rather I don't know where these came from o.o

 

[Brazil]

Yay, free $10!

 

[Akira_83]

I don't have a PS3 though..I guess I need my Vita to check my wallet balance then.

so even if you do get one, without a ps3 your screwed?

lololol Sony

thanks for supporting Vita Fans!

 

[dark_prinny]

Anyone from EU got the 10€?

 

[Derrick01]

I checked and got one too, was actually about to come on here and ask if it was legit. Corporations have made me that jaded.

 

[Melchiah]

So, is this for the American customers only? I hope not, as it would be great having that 10€ for the upcoming ME3 Citadel DLC.

I checked my US account, and nothing there either. Although I've never bought anything with that account, whereas I've bought about 40 PSN games with the EU account since WipEout HD's release in September 2008, and subscribed to PS+ for about 1½ years (EDIT: and paid for subscription until September 2013). I think the customers should be rewarded due to their support (=spending), instead of their geographical location. =/

 

[Cornbread78]

Wait, what? I didn't get $hit... I'll have to check all my accounts now.... WTF.

 

[Naar]

I got it but can't redeem it

It says code is invalid or expired. Anyone have this problem as well?

 

[pahamrick]

Got it too, only been a + member for 9 months.

 

[Psi]

I have Plus and a Vita and no code here. Par for the course for Sony bonuses.

 

[Etzer]

Strange that it doesn't show up on Vitas. I'll have to check my PS3 when I get home.

 

[Psykotik]

i got mine!

secondary US account. asian account is my main.

 

[Necrovex]

Oh, I was thinking about Planewalkers so I can talk to my friend in Japan. This is perfect if I get one!

I checked and got one too, was actually about to come on here and ask if it was legit. Corporations have made me that jaded.

Sony has been pretty legit for the past couple of months.

 

[VeryGooster]

If I get it... will probably use on a PS2 game.

 

[Impeccable]

Received $10, Canadian PSN.

 

[Servbot #42]

Got my free 10 bucks guys! So happy, i wish everyone would get a code specially those who have been longtime customers. I've had my PS3 less than 6 months so i didn't think i would get a code, i have bought lots of stuff tough. US account.

 

[Dragon]

Why? Not everyone is getting it.

Best not to ask logical questions in response to an illogical post.

Well, I've been a long tiem customer and have spent hundreds of dollars on PS3 games off PSN and hundreds of dollars on VITA games on PSN... This is BS selection...

Oh well, I'll just go back to playing P4G now while busy at work...

 

[petethepanda]

Damn, wish Hotline Miami was coming out before the 5th, I'd grab that.

 

[Digital-Hero]

Best not to ask logical questions in response to an illogical post.

LOL. Did the poster ever say if he is a PS+ member?

I didn't get anything. My account was created November 2006 but I never subscribed to PS+.

 

[RS4-]

I didn't get one. Brother did

 

[Treb]

Yay I got one! I normally never get these.

 

[JaseMath]

Hope this isn't an apology in advance for something.

Nope, just spreading good will and softening you up for the big PS4 reveal.

 

[woolley]

I got nothing. Bad form Sony, bad form.

 

[Domcorleone]

Im going to go home and check if I got this as well. Hopefully I have and I can buy Ni no Kuni with it

 

[DrAndonuts]

I got $10. Might use it on Urban Trials Vita, depending on GAF impressions.

 

[Zippedpinhead]

I really do wonder what the criteria was for sending the $10. It seems like the vast majority of users did receive a $10 or $5 code, with only a small amount of people (myself included) not receiving a code.


It is just weird that there seems not to be a method to the madness.

 

[Wario64]

Damn, wish Hotline Miami was coming out before the 5th, I'd grab that.

The code expires on the 5th, not the money

 

[madp]

Nothing.

 

[Prophane33]

Had a PS3 and Vita for a few months, PS+ subscriber and spent money on PSN in the last 2-3 months -- didn't get anything.

Eh, I'd just be spending it on grabbing the Nobunaga's Ambition PS2 classic anyway.

 

[Dave_6]

Got my $10 last night. Not sure what I want to get with it though. I got Hotline Miami on Steam last week for free so no need to get it again.

 

[Goli]

I didn't get a thing ):. Oh well, there's not much I want to buy on PSN right now anyways.

 

[theusedversion]

I'm kind of annoyed that I didn't get this. I would have used this to justify a new purchase and spend some money on games.

 

[sensui-tomo]

had a ps3 for 2-3 years, a psp when it launched, a vita when it launched, bought stuff from both stores and nothing... and bought ps+ at one point.. nothing still. Hopefully i'm wrong soon.

 

[MrCookiepants]

None for me. Any Aussies here got theirs yet?
