[PS3] code no longer valid (pre-order and retail case)

[Demeos]

My early access code worked but sadly I have the same issue with my retail version, which I got in the mail today. Have you heard anything from them yet?

Not a word and it's been well over 48 hours since the auto-reply letting me know that they received my ticket.

I suppose it would make sense that the game as to be considered as "released" on the PSN side of things before we can apply them...

Perhaps. If that's the case, then I would wonder at what time would the Playstation Network start considering the codes valid? Well hopefully by 2am PDT.

Well I decided it was time to go to the other end of the chain and went to the CS chat line at Sony Online Entertainment. Unfortunately, there was nothing they could do to resolve this on their end and suggested I contact Square-Enix. They were nice enough to provide me with the phone number which is pretty much my last course of action at this point. Still no word via email and since it's past 6pm now, I'll have to wait until 9am tomorrow.

Welp, back to doing a whole lot of not playing this game. :P
