Re: RE5: GE PS+ free error

I really don't like this new update!! It's making it seem like I have two options in order to get RE5 gold. Either purchase for $29.99 or download the Full Game Trial and play for 60 minutes, even though it said playstation plus next to it!! I thought it was a free full game!! Not a trial!! I hope they added another choice, maybe saying something less confusing like "Free for PS+ Members Download"!! So I'm currently downloading the trial, we'll see where that takes me

Re: RE5: GE PS+ free error

I too came across this questionable mystery. Unfortunately it doesn't look as though either option is the "free game" option, so I just stuck with the 60-minute trial for the time being. The way this new store is setup is in bad condition. While it may look nice, underneath the skin there's troubles brewing.

Re: RE5: GE PS+ free error

Exact same problem thought it was me acting like an idiot. I really like the new playstation store because it is alot more steamlined but Im guessing that it has caused alot of glitches and problems. Hope they resolve this fast :/

Re: RE5: GE PS+ free error

So I have Playstaion Plus, and I tried to download Resident Evil 5. I went to checkout,  and it didn't bring me to the  'add funds' screen that it usually would. I checked my bank account and it charged me for it.

 

Is there anyway I can get a refund, or do I just have to eat the $30 and be salty about it?

Re: RE5: GE PS+ free error

I was charged $29.99 for this "free" download. Been a Plus subscriber nearly since its inception and my subscription is active until June 2013.

Already called customer support and provided my information, it was explained that it will take 10-15 days to verify my Plus status and subsequently refund my money.

Absolutely, deeply, seriously 100% not happy about this. Not happy about being charged $30 for a game I would not have paid for, not happy with a 10-15 day wait for refund.

Get this squared away, Sony.

Re: RE5: GE PS+ free error

Yes there is an issue with the new store. I talked to CS they said if you were charged for RE5 gold and you have plus, you will get a refund. Funny thing I noticed when I was in the store. If you put something in your cart. You have no way of removing it. I guess there using the fly paper sales model now. You touched it now you have to own it lol.....
