Promos not getting to Europe?

Hi, I know this will most probably be sunk by the storm of complaining posts.
I would like to ask if there has been any announcement regarding the promos that we were supposed to get in Europe.
I know some countries have had their chance to get them, but in Spain we haven't even got the first one with the butler attire and the White fat chocobo.

This is what they said almost a year ago:
"Note: Separate campaigns offering the same in-game items are currently being planned for those residing in: France, Belgium, The Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, Spain, Australia, New Zealand and Nordic territories. Further details on these campaigns will be posted at a later date."

So for I'm guessing no promo for us and I shouldn't expect to get the latest Sun Wukong items either but would like to be proven otherwise. Any info on these promotions?

Thanks and don't get stuck in long queues.

Can I up this for visibility? No one answered and I can't find info on this.

Australians can't get the cloud mount due to not being able to purchase from Amazon which was very disappointing, I do hope they change the ways in which promos are handled so everyone can participate.

I haven't heard anything about if they're ever going to change how they deliver their promos but here is another bump as I'd also like to know.

Did you get the first promo with the butler/maid attire and the white fat chocobo in Australia?

Australians got another promo store, I know, I'm Australian and I've got the maid set.

That is not the problem, the problem is is that we have had zero word about our promotion for the monkey king set.

That's one step ahead from some of us :p

Since they announced the items eventually would end on the mogstation i just asumed that was SE's way of dealing with it. I very much doubt outside of the germany dr pepper promotion that we will get anything for the cloud mount etc.

I live in the UK we get sod all here for FF14 promotions

Games master promo? (god I hated this for the maid and butler outfit)

With the limited amount of eastern outfits in this game I'd love that monkey outfit top and that cloud mount for my main. But it seems Europe gets awfully overlooked. (haha)
I'm still waiting for the day where some pretty glimglams come out exclusively for Europeans so i can gloat like my american friends, I shall do spins and twirls while my FC mates will envy me till the stuff comes out on the mog station.

One can always dream.

Haha man we get even less than France and the UK and Germany. We got literally 0 promos.. So unless you got friends abroad GL HF. SE has been extremely bad at this, and they even promised those would be put up on Mogstation on these very forums. I suppose that was just to shut us up.

I'd rather the rotten gamesmaster promo than nothing. No lessons were learnt after the butler fiasco.

We've had THREE promotions for last year's gear. First was Gamesmaster, which was a pain, then O2 gave the stuff away free on O2 Priority (minus the Butler/Maid set & mount). The Butler & Maid set, along with the White Chocobo are being made available via O2 Priority again free soon, along with a few other promotions like prizes. We've been far more lucky than most of Europe, especially as we can get the gear & mounts for free whereas others worldwide had to pay. Sadly I paid for the Gamesmaster deal so can't get the mounts free for myself.

The only thing that sucks about this is not everyone is that not everyone is on O2 or knows someone who is on O2

I guess there's not info then.
I guess this hasn't been handled properly in Europe. I was expecting some kind of promotion with Amazon or something similar :(

Anyone who owns a mobile can request a free SIM for O2 that gives access to O2 Priority. I don't have an O2 service, but without paying a penny got access to the promotions.

Is there a way to contact them and know about this? Or we just asume we will have to pay for them? I think I'm not too willing on buying those. Especially, because the essence of PROMO is lost there :/

Another crappy way of doing it though. I mean if you don't have an O2 contact you can't get it :/ Also I wish they would actually advertise these things better as I didn't even know until I read it here just now that there had even been a gamemaster promo :(

Wait what? When I looked into it they (O2) said priority was contract only?

O2 is for anyone who has an O2 number. I haven't even put a penny on the SIM, all that is needed is to activate it. I think I needed to put it in a phone & switch it on. They normally even have large adverts on their site offering the free SIM with access to Priority.

Square Enix is notorious for being awful at organising events outside of JP. I mean NA gets some stuff, but it seems like in general SE just has a really bad understanding of how to engage with diverse communities.

Like Australians are still paying their subs in EUROS with no option of picking something else, like USD. It's a complete joke but I doubt it'll ever change. Their company is pretty inept lol.

So you have to already be an O2 customer or pay a fortune to become one then like I said :/

Yea, zero promos here in Italy.

Thanks for the tip, I have registered for a free SIM as a test in case the monkey king stuff ends up on Priority. If I get the butler/maid set in the meantime I guess I will have a spare :V

Wow! What's the logic behind that?

That's not the worst of it.

Aussies are forced onto the EU store, forced to pay in Euros, AND the only items SE offers us is "digital" products. No physical games, no limited editions in physical form, no soundtracks, no plush toys, nothing!
