Free theme but Sony and Bethesda can do one.
If you are hacked and the hacker spends hundreds of pounds on your card Sony are happy to refuse you a refund, and should you process a charge back with your CC company they will ban your PSN profile.
Yet when they make an error that costs them money they are happy to retract the purchase with no explanation.

Restarted my PS4 and the locked theme, is now unlocked. So it appears that they haven't locked off the downloads. That's nice.

There are 3 founders' packs, starting at £14.99 and it's really fun actually which surprised me.

Looks like they are not honouring it. Reports coming in now saying that the passes have been set to expire on the 21st.

The official Sony line when someone purchases something by mistake is...'no refunds on digital content, can't do it sorry'....so it would be pretty hypocritical of them to cancel.
But then, it's Sony, all they do is screw people out of money on their store.

First bit of DLC is out this coming Tuesday, so unless Sony/Bethesda make a comment before then, that's when we'll see if it works or not.

So is this still working for those that got it?
NARMAK to Jonnyblock

Don't think DLC has released yet, so no way to verify until then and Sony may have more than enough time to identify and start cancelling them.

correct all though you can also get it for free if you were on the previous beta as that is how I have it.

Grabbed this and Paragon (apparently the full game) for free. Didn't see the theme.

Paragon requires the Founders Pack (currently priced at £49.99) on the PS Store to play. Unless it's working without?
'NOTE: A Founders Pack is required to gain entry to the Early Access available from March 18th
Paragon will become free to play during the summer of 2016.'

I remember pre-ordering Battlefield Hardline from the Czech PSN for like £4 and that got cancelled. it was a pre-order from a 'different' store so this glitch maybe treated differently... fingers crossed!

I don't think the developer will suffer. It will be Sony. They are responsible for the content on the store and they'll have to foot the cost.
Had a few things like this in the past with glitches on the PS Store and they've never revoked anything. They just move quickly to close it down and suck it up.

I paid £100 for a piece of cheap plastic that's already falling apart. They could have at least included the season pass in that bundle. Not to mention the game, though enjoyable, was a game breaking glitchy mess. I think I'm just about even now.

Minecraft was £12.99 not £34.99. Yeah you're probably right they will honour it but I don't think anyone here should be proud of getting it for free knowing they are doing the developer out of money.
mossmanfly
18 Mar 16#52
Downloaded it but when I select the free theme it says I need to purchase the content? I don't have Fallout 4 so don't know if it's because of that? I'm able to redownload it again as it's still purchased on my PS4, can anyone with Fallout 4 check that the theme work's? And people without Fallout 4 do you get the same message as me when trying to use the theme?

It will be revoked, not much point in adding it. It's already being broadcast by major gaming sites so Sony will just cancel all orders.

Has to be done via the PSN store website not via the PS4 store. As when I checked PS4 was £39.99 but I logged in on the PSN store website and it was free so purchased through there now its showing as purchased on my PS4.

I managed to get it installed. I purchased through the site, then visited Fallout 4's page on the console Store.
The pass was then marked as "Purchased" and I was able to download/install from there. We'll see if it works next week, but as of now, it looks like it has.

This is amazing. I literally just turned on PS4, saw Fallout 4 and thought "Oh, better check to see if there's any deals on the Season Pass" and now it's installed on my console. Thank you so much for this!
It'd be nice if they do honour this, but I'd be okay to pay a reduced price. I'm happy to support the developers with my money for their hard work, I just never got round to buying the Pass before it's price increase.

For anybody concerned regarding the static theme. This lad's mum bought him the Season Pass from CDKeys 4 days ago and the static theme was included. So it's seems like a genuine freebie rather than a mislabelled product.
