Any one else get the 2 free games when PSn was down and now can't play them?

I just want to know what is up with the free game they gave us! I went to play them today and both games they gave me for free now say I have to pay for them! **bleep** when they gave them to us they did not say it was only for a while.:smileymad:

Welcome to the PlayStation Community.

 

This has happened to a number of people in the past so you're not on your own & you'll be pelased to know there's an easy fix too!

 

Go to the XMB, then go to "Account Management", then "Transaction Management: then go to the "Services List",  lastly go to "PlayStation Promotions", from there you should be able to redeem your game(s)

When you said "your other account", is it that account you're using to try to download the free games, if it is that's why you can't.

No it is the account I got them with. This account is new that I am using  to post here knives440 is my old account . I have not used the old account in a while. My son's PS3 broke so I let him have mine, I have been using my gaming PC's and Xbox but I took my PS3 back after getting him a new one this week and trying to reset it back up for me and when I went to play the games I got the message I have to repay for them.

Stupid question, have you gone to your download list to see if the games are in there?
