yeah you could do that immediately providing you had another physical copy of the game. Just use the code you get when you buy the new copy, and register it "properly"; go to Mog Station, to your service account 1 press the funny "meteor +" button to add a code to that service account.
DO NOT under any circumstance 'create a new service account'.

It would work immediately, but short of a customer support headache down the road you would essentially be throwing away your other copy.

actually I'm surprised I didn't think of this sooner, but one way out of this pickle may be to just buy a new copy, register that, then as soon as is convenient express your right as a consumer to a refund of the other copy.
Perhaps most people don't want to give SE the satisfaction of their mistake raking them more money (if only for the short term, i.e., until a refund for the first game was handed over)

It's not an option for me because I literally cannot afford another Collector edition. I did consider buying a regular copy in the mean time, but then I decided I'll just wait. But if you had the cash it would essentially get the problem solved and you'd only be out of pocket for as long as it took to get a refund for the first copy you bought.

Checking it's possible to get a refund without too much hassle of course, a second copy would be cheaper then whatever hours on the phone, and this way at least a refund is on the cards. You don't get refunded for time spent on helplines.

The thing is, that didn't work for me. I have the Boxed Collector's Edition, and I had no option to add the code directly the the Service Account I was using. Someone told me this was because it was a pre-existing Service Account from 1.0, but that doesn't make sense as the reason when they allowed me to add the Pre-Order/Early Access code to that Service Account.

That meteor thing only is to add pc platform service

Oh wow, yeah you're right. Original post edited.

So we do need to go through the Playstation code redeemer thing again?
sheesh, I think the next time I register something on that thing I'm going to ask an attorney in law to help me with reading each page.

We were experiencing technical difficulties wherein players on the North American and European data center Worlds were unable to log into on FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn.

We are pleased to announce that the issue has been addressed. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

My ass! I just tried to log into my character and it's giving 1017, the "world full" error that appears so quickly that it's like they have the login locked down. Lying bastards!

So will using the psn code from a new game work to service my number one account or what

[CescCeber]

Early Access - Service 1 with EA items. + P4 character. #rally
Opening Day - SQEX Change to Service 2 without any announcement. Also none character data in this Service 2. #disappointed
Why? I didn't do any mistaken registration but SQEX just swop my EA account with 30 free period without notice. #amazed

I've read though this forum seem like no one get fixed. I've already give up and don't want to waste my time to wait with no hope again. As per T&C for that page
'The service account to which the game was mistakenly registered to will be permanently disabled during this process.' I will not take that risk.

So I just decided to REPLAY again in Service 2 such a non hope solution and let's facing only Error 1017 again. OH MY GOD!! #soothe #soothe #soothe
