Try contacting customer service and see if they can exchange the NA code for an EU one. I'm not positive whether that's something they can do or not, but it's your best chance.


And I don't understand either why there's region locking even when we're going to the same platforms run by the same company. I can understand China being separate, since it's run separately by Shanda Games and access to SE's JP/NA/EU servers doesn't give access to SG's Chinese servers and vice versa. But SE gives the same access to all its direct customers across JP/NA/EU.

I could even sort of understand region locking purchases due to competition between different divisions of the company. (Though I don't think it's really good for the parent company to have so much internal competition that the product itself becomes less useful.) But I can't understand permanently region locking accounts, especially given the fact that the owner of an account may not always live in the same region anyway.
