(EU/PAL) In-Game Item Campaign with ShopTo!

[burnnie]

Good Morning,

Apologies for asking this again but this doesn't really answer my question, what is being done about titles such as "World of Final Fantasy ps4" and "Just Cause 3"? Both of these titles are supposed to be included in the event, however neither of them are being made available even for back order on the shopto website, is there a plan for these to be included still and should shopto be allowing back orders or have you decided to no longer include these titles?

Just Cause 3 is NOT included in the campaign, that was (is?) an error on the Lodestone post.

Edit: Apparently I'm wrong and it is included (at least the XBone Gold Edition).

Shopto said on their Facebook page they are getting no stock from SE on World of Final Fantasy, they're right out, but, you can purchase the ones in stock by their third party sellers. They will honour the code, just submit a ticket with their customer service after purchase

This promo is giving me a headache. So, even though the game isn't listed as part of the promo anymore, people can risk it and hope that ShopTo will give them their codes if they buy from this third party seller?

It seems to be an Amazon-esque set up, where their store may be out of stock, but they can have orders 'Fulfilled by' partnered stores.

At least on Reddit, and on Facebook, it seems those that have ordered World of Final Fantasy and submitted their ticket have had their codes honoured. The downside is, though, it's more expensive, and I've found the partnered stores don't ship to my country (Australia)

So anyone has any idea how can I even log in to ShopTo? Always the blank page...Won't work with other browsers, no reply from their support...

I had the same problem, I did reset my password TWICE and then it worked. Maybe you could try that?

I can't even make a ShopTo account; Does anyone know how to fix this issue?

Happens when asked to key in payment details.
I didn't even get to type anything yet...

After you enter your password and security question, you will get redirected to a page to enter your billing address and you MUST hit X in your browser, cause after a few seconds will direct you to the page of your screenshot.
Once you are on the billing address page, you need to fill EVERY BOX it doesn't matter that it says it's not required. Once you have filled in everything, click Submit and it will let you enter your card details to do the 1GBP payment

Game Time Card Availability
We are aware that game time card stock has been an issue for many players since the start of the campaign, and that many customers are currently awaiting their item on backorder.

While we cannot give a specific date for the time being, we can say that all orders made so far will be fulfilled and that those who have ordered a game time card as part of the campaign will receive their codes to obtain the in-game items once their order is completed.

I would just like clarification; with regards to those of us with a time card on backorder in the preorder section of shopto (i.e. we have not paid for it yet and have the backorder due to lack of stock), will we still be eligible for the promotional items if they do not come back in stock before the cut off end date of the 20th October?

This has got to be the most messed up online game shop I've ever seen.

First, I was getting blank screens and http 500 errors, when I tried to use my old account. 5 emails with tech support later, they advised me to create a new account. Once I got to the 1 pound part, I've got another error message about blocked IP range. Another series of emails resulted in "Someone else on your network did something bad, we can't unblock you from our system".

Tried using different ISPs, finally found one that's ok with their paranoid selves, got to credit card details and another error message. Again, emails, and it turns out they're blocking credit cards from my country. GG, well promoted.

Hi there!

To everyone who is wondering if purchasing an item currently on backorder will get you the in-game items – yes, you will be provided with the codes by ShopTo.

Just make sure that the purchase you’re about to make is listed on the ShopTo campaign site and that the purchase is done during the campaign period.

Best,
Lakukisu

Just make sure that the purchase you’re about to make is listed on the ShopTo campaign site and that the purchase is done during the campaign period.

But that's exactly the point people are worried about - backorders don't count as purchases until they get back in stock at which point we're charged for them. What if they don't get enough stock before the campaign ends? I, as well as many others, have only the one choice of the game card for PC. The chances of them not meeting demand is ridiculously high. This is actually concerning.

This seems to be yet another badly runcampaignwere people have to backorder to have a hope of qualfiing due to retailer out of stock of campaign items. The other issue is that this again is a UK campaign for the whole EU. I kind of don't see the logic in this. I have firends who are having to pay silly amounts of tax and delivery in order to qualify for this campaign
