Early Access & Account issues (PS3)

[Amaya-Asha]

Good luck but I will wait and see if SE will fix this I can only see linking a Eu account to my Na account might make for more issues down the road. If I miss out on EA ok but I want my mog and cat items. Since I know they can be redeem from now till December there is still hope I will get my items. Just I have a feeling you are turning you account into an eu account that could be an issue come sub time.

Hey guys, hey! For starters, I'm exhausted. Sat in 2+ hrs for chat support only for them to Disconnect me when it was my turn.

Talked with vendor and Square Enix support, no success. I did however get 5 emails with the same EU PSN code.

So, I figured fine I'll try it since I have a working EU account.

Code worked fine on my EU PSN account, downloaded client, am currently installing it. I got the error Vakim got when running the P4 client I had already installed. I'm currently installing the new client I got from redeeming my EU code.

It's at 50% right now. Hopefully it works, and I can at least link this to my SE-account and play on the PC (don't really care for the PS3 version.)

This has been one giant mess for me since P4.

TL;DR
I'm trying the EU trick. Wish me luck.

Assuming this works then this link is correct: http://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/commen...ps3_psn_codes/ - the top part worked for me

Welps, it seems the PSN client is ID tied.

I opened up the freshly downloaded and installed client I got from redeeming my EU PSN code on my EU PSN ID. I got the same error, and it asking me to re-enter my code (which doesn't work on my US PSN ID.)

So I switched over to my EU PSN ID and launched the client, it worked fine. I'm going through the setup to see if I can bind the info to my SE Service Account...

HOWEVER, if this works, for PS3 users I get the feeling they'd have to use their EU PSN IDs to launch the client. Going to test it now...

Got the same error Valkim Did. It's asking me to register using the promotion code I used. =[

I think you are misunderstanding - you are only using the EU account to gain access to the client that is available in the PSN store. So far, it appears that the client is language/region universal. After downloading the client, you switch back to your playstations US profile and launch the client. From here you log in using the square enix account you used when registering your pre-order early access promo code

Please let me know if this works! I thought of doing this but am too scared too haha.

No dice right now. I tried to use my SE-Service account, got error "wrong region."

...Wonder if I can change my region on my SE account or at this point just give up. Chances are I've already screwed the chances of getting a working NA key haha.

For Science!
