"No Valid Service" PS3 [XMB] Mail.

[Ramzi]

Someone in another thread is saying we are getting full refund and a voucher to DL the game again for free, with some type of extras, but not til next week. No idea what to believe. I'll wait it out a bit to see what SE says.

[SmokeyTreats]

Ahhh what do we do!!

[MiaMortale]

So does this mean you no longer have the CE bonuses?

[SoopaMan2K]

I successfully purchased the standard edition and it is patching now. However I had bought the collectors edition before so the standard was available for purchase but not the CE.

Awwwwah, you should've waited

Yeah, I highly doubt that. They refunded so we can re-buy it

Keep your eyes peeled on this for Final Fantasy XIV(PS Store) changes so we can re-buy when everything gets cleared.

so the amount of what is refunded is that in the current wallet?

Yes it is.

So the situation is like this:
1. Still no XMB message at the moment
2. We've got refunded to our wallet for what we purchased, either Standard or Collector Edition
3. In Services List, the game itself and the early access service expires on 08/23/2013
4. The FFXIV theme from the Download List is gone (I guess the game is still in my download list because I enrolled the open beta of PS3 before)
5. Depends on which version we purchased, we cannot purchase that one again
6. As long as your downloaded it already, the game is still sitting in your PS3 (of course, they cannot remotely delete it)

Conclusion:
I assume they are still in the middle of processing and will send us XMB message about how we could get it back. (I'm not sure but most likely a re-download is not even needed if we are doing everything right, what makes us cannot play is the validity of the code, not the downloaded content)
What we need to do now is just wait a bit more! There is progress already, and SE, Sony and us are so close to make it!
Buying a copy of the another edition may grant you the access to early access again and let you patch your client, but only do this if you don't mind taking the another edition instead! Moreover, no one guarantee this act may mess up some other thing at the moment. Take your own risk.

So just got off the phone with Sony,

For everyone who refunded and cannot purchase it, funds may be returned to the wallet but purchase and transaction history may take 5-7 business days to remove said purchase...

[SoopaMan2K]

Yeah, that's why I'm waiting. I want my CE back.

Well, that sucks. LeSigh!

Normally that's probably the case, but for this special situation I think they expedited this process... the services list for FFXIV all expire today. This theoretically means they are cleared at midnight. Still, best to just wait for SE to say something official. If they make us wait 5-7 I will rage.
