I bought the "INSTANT" code, and it asked me if I had an account. I said No, because I don't, and then paid with PayPal. Evidently, it created an account for me anyway (using my PayPal details) as I was able to access it by issuing a password reset. That's how I was able to view my order status, but there is no code in there.

Are you really suggesting that this is my fault somehow? I must have missed the bit where it says "You'll only get what you paid for if you create an account before you try to buy it". Don't be so ridiculous.

Strange. I've ordered plenty from shopto including the ps plus at £26 a few weeks back and every single item has arrived no problem.
Your troll skills are weak.

"Order Status PROCESSING"

Instant my bottom.

But, but, was only 25ish a few weeks ago, sorry cold it is.....

Ordered this a few days back as my PSN sub expires on the 31st. I haven't used Shopto for a couple of years, but have bought stuff from them in the past with no problems. Got an email from paypal confirming the purchase and the money's gone from my account, but no email from Shopto and nothing in 'My Orders'. Have raised a ticket...

2021. Announcement E3 2020.

oh i thought most were at X DEV, i thought it said that on wiki but no, you're right

i said it might be out next year, not it will be :stuck_out_tongue:
i think it'll be out 2019

It's £3.99 in the sale. Expect it for free when the sequel is nearly ready for release

Yeah, but I was just wondering what constitutes a 'full' game. I mean most games are smaller than GTA V, even other AAA titles, but what does that even mean? Is it a 'big' game because it had a big budget? Big dev team? Big map?

And I'm not sure how many ex-Psygnosis devs are at Xdev. Many of them moved on to form new studios, such as Firesprite and Playrise Digital, which still do work for Sony, but I know some of the original Wipeout development team are now R8 Games who recently released Formula Fusion (a racing game very much like Wipeout).

If you think the PS5 will be here next year I would use a stronger word than "dreamer" to describe you.

i like indie devs, i shouldn't have said they aren't full games, they're just smaller compared to games like gta 5 (AAA)
X dev are great, most of the people who work there are from studio liverpool (Psygnosis, Wipeout devs)

I managed to get an order in before the price went up, have had the PayPal receipt but nothing from ShopTo yet, does anybody know where to look on the ShopTo website to find the code? Thanks!

Miraculously back in stock at £37.85

And yet still no sign of Knack?

Truly shocking.

So what is a 'full' game? Or a 'big' game? Big studio? Big budget? Big marketing campaign? Long play time? A complex story? And plenty of indie games get retail releases - usually after they're successful, which if anything is a lesson to bigger developers.

Oh, also the Wipeout Omega Collection is a remaster/collection of the 2 Vita games -
and it was put together by a small indie studio. They're owned by Sony but they're still small and indie. They made Resogun, Murasaki Baby and Rime.

Sold out

Back in stock at time of posting

Buy before Sony increase the playstation plus subscription price at the end of August.

25% increase (highfive)

i love resogun too, just cause has some performance issues but it's slightly better on the pro

i didn't mean indie games aren't as good, i mean a full PS4 game to me is a retail or big budget PS store release (wipeout HD for example)
i like some indies too, alienation was the last one i liked, even if i thought indies were not full games (i do think they're full games, come to think of it, i wish i never started this now :laughing: ) i would still be a gamer, small games, big games, what's the difference
if you're playing games you're a gamer, simple :smiley:

Cd keys

H

yeah £31.99

http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/playstation-plus-12-month-subscription-uk-31-99-electronicfirst-2751506

Ps plus Rrp is going up to £50 a year as of 31st August. Get it while it cheap

Plenty of indie games I have played that are full games, some may lack the polish due to smaller/lone developers, others having the advantage of not being generic, visually or gameplay being more creative.

Cannot say personally I am impressed with Just Cause 3 being next months 'premium' title, personally I have had many hours of fun with titles like 'Resogun' and 'Velocity 2X'

Anywhere else still got it sub £35?

Yes

You are clearly not a gamer if you think a game isn't a full game just because it is released by an independent developer and not a big publisher.

Some of my best gaming experiences have been with these games that you would dismiss in an instant. They are unknown classics that get the attention they deserve when given away with PlayStation plus. Don't get me wrong, not all indie games are good just as not all big games are good, and some of the games we've had on Plus haven't been great examples, but you only find that out when you give them a go. I've had many more hours of play from these games than major titles.

:laughing:
wait for your ps+ to run out and get it cheaper through the PS store when they drop the price for non subscribers

it's just their way to get people commited to PS+ for longer wether you'll need/use it for that long or not

b*st*rds have put the price up to £37.85

If I can play them from start to finish then yes, I have many indie games that have offered me significantly more play time that a number of AAA titles.

but would you consider an indie as a full PS4 game?, i wouldn't, they're like mini games to me
Edit: don't say full mini games lol, i suppose they are full but not full ps4 releases... never mind :laughing:

So it's not £30 anymore? DAAAAAAAMMIT!

A 20% increase on the price is a considerable hike. Admittedly £4.16 a month breaking it down does not sound a lot. You have to remember that a lot of people break down entertainment payments monthly, whether it be tv licensing, broadband, Netflix, Spotify, etc....and you are breaking it down after shelling out £50 in one go.

Monthly has increased to £6.99, Quarterly it is £19.99. However you break it down, 20% increase is steep.

Well the aren't trials, full game just means you can play it in it's entirety.

yes you can redeem more than one at a time, the expiry date just gets extended by a year, not a good idea tho imo, the PS5 might be here next year without plus or online gaming might be free again (like it should be)

Until Dawn is available as part of the July PS4 games.... available till the weekend.

Well worth it as a 'freebie' - I view PS Plus as the price to be able to play online. .....

I think Until Dawn was a AAA title?

Basket empties when you try to pay. Think this deal is finished now.

Sold out :disappointed:

Bought about 45 minutes ago but the site crashed. Money taken from Paypal but nothing showing in Orders tab, will check Preorders tab in 10 minutes when it's finished loading :smile:

Membership to benefit from full games :laughing: well we sometimes get a AAA but i don't consider indies as full games :stuck_out_tongue:

you can stack 3 years (may even be more i've not tried more)

How is £4.16 a month a ripoff? Seriously? Even if you only play a third of the games offered it's still good value, not to mention the extra savings on digital sales.

Can you only reedem one years PS plus at a time?

The sub RRP is about to go up to £49.99 as of Aug 30th so makes it even more of a deal.

Finally got on, looks like it’s on backorder now :-

I always thought codes lasted for 10 years but don't quote me on that, I rarely use my psplus but will get this and save it for when I need it (current expires in a month)

I can’t even view it mate site won’t load anything now

Go slow. Price hike inevitable. Get in quick before the world ends :man:

Can this be saved and activated in December ?

Just got an email from Playstation and they are increasing PS Plus to £49.99 what a rip off. Great deal here. So if anyone's PS Plus auto renews remember to cancel it

You're correct, I was on mobile, checked on a desktop and lo and behold £29.86. odd. sorry for the confusion.

I think it's taking a little while to process. As someone said above, I think everyone is jumping on this since the news of the price increase. I purchased for £29.86, got my PayPal confirmation email but nothing on orders. It's just shown up now but the site is REALLY slow!

No it’s still £29.86 click the actual link

Please can you tell me where it is? Checked orders nothing there

Just brought mine @ £29.86 and nothing showing wtf paid with PayPal and nothing in my shopto account

It looks like Shopto have put it up to £36.85 now :disappointed:

I usually by a 12 month membership card for my son for xmas. Can i buy it now for the cheaper price and still give it to him to activate at xmas? Or will it have to be activated before the price change? Thanks

Why didn't I buy this before? Doh!

I just attempted to buy it and shopto has gone down, i guess everyone had the same idea...

Just got. Email that its going up by a tenner, what are we getting for that, nothing??

Just had email from Sony saying PS+ goes up to £50 in September. Just bought this offer and added it to my account ahead of my renewal date, so effectively saving £20.

Go on to your orders page and you activate to get the code!

Ordered without reading the hundreds of comments. No code received. Anyone have any luck?
This should be expired by the mods based on the comments.

That might of actually be relevant if you posted if when the deal went live two weeks ago and want such an obvious piece of sarcasm, well done.

Most people don't have time machines so it's a pretty fair deal in the present. Heat

I had to do a PayPal claim after 8 days and nothing to show! Never will I buy off these again. Emailed them but never even got a reply:(

PayPal claim filed. I think 8 days is a reasonable enough time to have waited for something that was advertised as instant. Never using these cowboys again!

I've opened a ticket on the message center. See if they get back to me tomorrow or I'll be doing something similar... Shocking service

Same happened to me - my order wasn't even showing on my account. I made a claim ticket and got an email with the code the next day.

Still haven't had my code.... Order hasn't showed up a week later. They've taken payment too

That was on there own site, I have contacted them just waiting for a reply as not open over a weekend, thank you tho for your help just thought it was me going mad

Yeah that's wrong. Was that in the email or have you gone onto the order on the site? Pity You missed the prime deal the other day. Anyway if it's not there I'd contact them. Few people have had issues in this thread so they seem to be dropping the ball a bit these days.

Well, you're a bit late to the party. You've missed hundreds and hundreds of games that have been on. The games they add these days aren't as good, but every now and then you get something decent. The rule is 2 PS4, 2 PS3, and 2 Vita. But the Vita games are often crossplay titles available on PS4 as well. And this month they gave away that weird social game you play with your phone on PS4. There's a list of the PS+ stuff and the dates they get added and removed each month here

when this needs to be 12 for it to work

I ordered it got the code but it's only 11 digits long ??

Got it sorted. Found it on PS4 menu.

Not much choice is there? I can only see 4 games. And one of them is some kiddy selfie quiz thing, and another a fruit quiz game!!

Feeling ripped off...

Thanks to the op,spot on .Took a day for the code but all sorted now

Is it no longer available?

Go on the ps store on the console or web, web is better as you can add all 6 games to the basket and checkout.

Already got 15 months for £30 during prime day.

I ordered the INSTANT PS Plus 5 days ago and still waiting for it.

Got it sorted :smiley:

How do I find the free games I can download with this? Just got me new PS4 :smiley:

If you want the code on a card, sent to your house, then it's a tenner more.

It's a code people, digital only. They don't send it through the post, you get the code from your account page after your payment has cleared. BTW Unless you've already got an account one of the requirements is you have already received 2 separate deliveries before they will send you the code. I got around this by paying with PayPal. Hope this helps.

Ordered this the other day and have had my PayPal account charged, yet I have not received a code and it's not even showing in my orders on ShopTo. Any advice?

Was planning on this, then Amazon came out with 15 months for £29.99 on prime day.

The whole process is a very clunky but I ordered 12 months PSN, logged in the next day and the code was in there. It does say it will be posted but evidently not....

Hope this helps?

Ordered yesterday and only got the 'instant' code today. Good price but disappointing service (shock)

29.99 for 15 months from amazon. Deal expires today. U need to activate prime trial to get it.

If you still haven't got your code or your order isn't showing in tracking just ask support they sent me the code straight away after i opened a support ticket.

Do you know what "ex" means, mate?

Ordered & paid for mine this morning. Checked online order when I got home from work and had to hit activate to get code. It redeemed & stacked OK.

No code for me either, over 2 hours now.Thats the son huffed

Ordered says complete but no code showing in my account =/ wish i'd gone for the amazon prime offer now

Edit: Received mine this morning

if you look below the price it should say

PRIME DAY DEAL Start your 30 day Prime free trial and get this item for £29.99 at checkout.

https://www.amazon.co.uk/PlayStation-Plus-Month-Membership-Download/dp/B071ZJFMVH/

Can't find it. you got a link mate please..?

Amazon doing 15 months for £29.99 for Prime Day...

back in-stock now :innocent:

Bought this yesterday expecting it to be instant download, I messaged shop to and it is supposed to be a digital download and they are working to resolve the issue.

If you log into your account, go to the orders tab and click on the psn purchase, you'll see activate, click that and voila, the code magically appears!

This pretty much means its finished l can't add it to basket it's still on Back Order

Could I buy this for my nephew to use in South Africa?

Yeah, it's bouncing me out on the back order stage - I go to pay, and it says my basket is empty. Bit of a shame.

Back order (as of 12:24)

Doesn't work for me. Back order again and then can't checkout.

Removed from back order and back on sale.

Ordered yesterday no email and not showing in orders ??? Help

Damn, looked here 2 days ago and there was nothing and had to pay the £40 on PS store. Only positive is PSN deal gives you 15 months for price of 12 so not that different! lol

Strange. I've ordered plenty from shopto including the ps plus at £26 a few weeks back and every single item has arrived no problem.
Your troll skills are weak.

Nonsense, all psn games are terrible, one good a year if you are lucky. They are free for a reason....they are unsellable

And...ex amiga 500 user?!?! You are living in the past, my iPhone will play games 1000 times better than a 30 year old computer, what a moron

lol I have to comment on this, if anyone wants a laugh, read through all the comments for people that have tried to order, it's hilarious

I wouldn't touch this crap with a barge pole

So called instant???? When I look it's on "back order", what a joke, cold added, clearly it's not a real company and they are stealing your money

As an ex Amiga 500 user, I'd say PSN is worth it at this price. It essentially gets you at least 2 free games every month. They're not always good, but well worth a few quid a month, and some are great. You also need PSN to be able to do any online gaming (never tried it myself, quite happy with single player stuff).

Hi. Sorry for the daft question. Someone who is pushing 40, is more akin to an amiga 600 and has recently bought his 6 year old a PS4......what is the psn and what does it give me?

Thanks man (y)

back order means you don't actually pay for it and doubt we'll be able to get it

It says it's on Back Order. Can't add it to basket etc. Not sure how back order works or if it's worth paying money not knowing when it would be back in stock (if it would be back in stock)

Still available to order

OOS

Their Payments system is hosed. If you try and add a card to pre-order it, it tries to auth a £1 transaction but sits at:

Your payment is being authorised
it won't take long

but never completes. Tried adding a card to my account directly and that fails the same way.

Server error 5006: Unable to redirect to Vendor's web site. The Vendor failed to provide a RedirectionURL.
HTTP error 500: The request was unsuccessful due to an unexpected condition encountered by the server.

The 3DS redirection back to their site has failed :-(

On back order - OOS

Well if you play any game online you need it anyway. I've stacked both PSN & XBL till 2020.

Codes are on back order now

Don't see any benefit in stacking more than a year, these deals come every few months.

The quality of games on the PS plus has gone up recently, i read somewhere sony will start offering retail ps4 titles more often than the indy stuff in the free game offers.

Bought myself PS plus 12 months back in april, really want to get it, but my wallet is empty :disappointed:

Seems to be out of stock and is preorder only.

What if it gets awesome beyond belief but the price triples?

yep, it took 20 min here too :neutral_face:
heat added op :smiley:

Order dispatched via Royal Mail half an hour after doing it

what if PS+ gets worse and worse over the years if stacking more than a year ?!

I've logged on they've taken my money via PayPal... Cant see it in my orders though?

Cold

Mine also shows as postal delivery in My Account.

Might be a backup for when their database runs out of Instant Codes.

Very strange though I'll admit - I'd expect the system just to take it off sale once they were out. But I get the impression that ShopTo use a somewhat dated (or at least crappy) back-end - often can't get logged in, crap search engine, pages often don't load properly depending on what browser you're using, their app was absolutely shockingly bad last time I had it installed (it did not go on my list of apps to reinstall upon getting a new phone).

Worth a punt at £28.40 after using ShopTo points, if they cancel the order I'll just go to CDkeys or whoever else has the cheapest deal at the moment since my Plus is up at the end of the week anyway.

Order was processing, now i can't even see the order...

It's definitely being posted. I've got an account and it's been despatched first class. No download link in any emails either.

Just to let people know. I bought this, have an account on Shopto and haven't received anything but a dispatch email. Has anyone actually received the code?

I even managed to log onto my account and under orders there's no code there either, so I'm fairly sure it's going to be posted. Not that I was in any rush but annoying for those who wanted instant.

My mistake I assumed this a CDkeys deal as they usually are which is how it works with them, didn't spot it was ShopTo

^ Pretty instantly I'd say. Was just about to order until I read your feedback.
What are ShopTo saying?

At what point is it reasonable to file a PayPal dispute for something "instant" that didn't arrive?

Good price but I'm done with Shopto apart from an occasional cheap Now TV box. The site and payment system are terrible. Took 5 debits from my account the last time I tried to buy PS Plus. I didn't get a single code!

Try using your mobile phone! It will work!

Anyone having issues logging in to the ShopTo website?

When I enter my details on the log in page and then the "Login" button, I just get directed back to the main home page without being logged in.

How long does it roughly take? Placed order and nothing is there at the moment

I bought the "INSTANT" code, and it asked me if I had an account. I said No, because I don't, and then paid with PayPal. Evidently, it created an account for me anyway (using my PayPal details) as I was able to access it by issuing a password reset. That's how I was able to view my order status, but there is no code in there.

Are you really suggesting that this is my fault somehow? I must have missed the bit where it says "You'll only get what you paid for if you create an account before you try to buy it". Don't be so ridiculous.

The code is sat in your account page under orders, you didn't create an account. You see the problem here?

What?

"Order Status PROCESSING"

Instant my bottom.

The one for £29.86 says "In Stock Dispatched Monday for delivery Tuesday if ordered within 4 Hours 10 Minutes"

The one that's available for £36.85 says "In Stock. - Digital code allocated instantly after the purchase"

It'll come in the post.

Erm...how about making an account now? Worth a try

I've only received two emails, a Payment confirmation and order confirmation. There is no mention of "download" in either of them.

But I don't have an account with them, it didn't make me create one either, and the "Visit My Account" button in their email literally doesn't do anything. And the email I got from them was sent to "[FORENAME][SURNAME]". All bodes well so far :smiley:

If you have 3 months left can this deal be added to the 3 months or can you use just before the 3 months end? Thanks

How does this work? I ordered the "INSTANT" 12 months membership about 20 minutes ago and I haven't received a code yet, so that's hardly instant is it? The only emails I've received so far suggest that it's going to be posted to me?!

Can you buy this and activate it whenever you want? Or does it expire after a certain period of time?

But, but, was only 25ish a few weeks ago, sorry cold it is.....

Heat added, 5% on Quidco.

Just what I was after. Heat added. Thanks Buzz.
