Game Card in UK

Steevyboy · 2003-10-19, 09:05 AM

Does anyone know where I can buy a Planetside Game Card in the UK without having to have it shipped? Prefereably in the south-east.
Thanks,
Steevyboy

You Cannot get gamecards in the uk sorry. The SOE have no plans to sell them here either

That really is very annoying G*D D*MN F***ING A**HOLES!

I appologise but WHY???? i'm sure that theres a market here for them, and what does it cost to ship them here in bulk.. if you just increase their cost to incorporate it they're only gonna increase in price by about 1 pence. there must be a lot of teenagers without debit cards who subsequently dont buy planetside, or any other sony online game as they cant pay the subscription cost. Well thats my rant for this month, thank you for reading,

[Edit] Hopefully this will be read by sony online, as it kinda written to them.

Steev, do you have any Game stores near you? Go ask.
Or a Virgin Megastore?

Heck, my friend used to get Everquest game cards from the fucking newsagents.

Ask about in shops.

Where in the south east are you?

i had this problem 7 months ago when i 1st started playing planetside.
i live in england leeds.

heres my results,

i asked in approx 200 shops which sell games.

all of them said "no, sorry we dont have them"

i said sh*t.

i then convinced my dad to let me use his card.

do sony let u use solo thou? would be nice if they did.

damn,i never relised that you couldn't play PS until your 18! cos basically u need a credit card. Game cards would be a good idea for the UK

You can use a Switch/Solo card on the PS website now, I had a Solo card when i was 15....

Ps will be killed when they loose Reserves, its not worth the cost to play monthly (imo). Sure i can use my Solo to pay but its not worth it.

The game is fun but for the cost a month for an outdated game, seriously not worth it. I wish they would extend Reserves, i mean Anarchy Online people released the basic AO free of charge and its still going strong

You can get a Cashplus card which is a pre-paid Mastercard, but you top it up with cash at a Post office or a Cashplus outlet, of which there are quite a few around the country in UK.

You can get one if your 13 or over and you can find out info on it from www.mycashplus.co.uk.

That way you can use it by topping it up when you need it.

Hope that helps.
