Promotion is up on Amazon

[Bixillarla]

I wonder if pre ordering the Zelda Wii U game will get me the code...

If the game has the promotion listed on the product page then yes it will.

what does/does not qualify (unless you go directly to an Amazon rep and ask them specifically what does and doesn't qualify..).

Don't even have to ask a rep says right on the product page if item qualifies or not, they just got to scroll down a little bit to see if it says this

Spend $19.99 or more in the Amazon Video Games Category to receive six exclusive in-game items for "Final Fantasy XIV." You will receive your code by email within 2 business days.

Products that don't say it (like items sold bye 3rd party) don't list it.

Possibly because a lot of people are untrusting of this due to the fact SE nor Amazon has released a full, complete rules and regulations about how this promo works and what does/does not qualify (unless you go directly to an Amazon rep and ask them specifically what does and doesn't qualify..). There were also a few people saying the codes they received were invalid, so I think it boils down more to a trust issue than pure impatience.

Not to mention the wildly varying degrees of answers people are getting from Amazon - i.e. one person being told the whole ordeal is fake, other people being offered their codes via chat, other people being told to wait up to 48 hours, some people getting their codes immediately upon order completion.

Yup typical Amazon when it comes to stuff like this, the customer service reps get the information last and what service you get varies wildly from rep to rep.

That it did and I got my code, thanks for confirming!

People are so impatient, I could see if person waited 2 days like it states and didn't get code contacting customer support about the code but sounds like people not even waiting couple hours before wanting to know where their code is.

I think part of the problem is people are suddenly getting the codes nearly right after they order vs some of us that ordered about 10 hours ago and have been told to sit and wait.

Yea that why it says "within 2 business days" so person could receive it anytime within that time frame whether it be 5 minutes after order to 40 hours after the order.

Also the promo might of not started until a certain time like 8am or something so then if person ordered at 3am the the promo would of not been active yet.

Seems newer orders are getting their codes near-instantaneously. If your order hasn't shipped yet, maybe try cancelling it and re-ordering? This is especially easy to do if you preordered something.

I just preordered the resident evil 4 for ps4. 19.99 even, contacted customer service and got the code asap.

I had preordered something last night when the promotion first went live and it did not go through. I just cancelled it and reordered and got the code almost instantly.
