I've purchased a copy of FF14 CE box set and due to my current location, I'd need to re-ship it from US to my location and this process takes a good 1-2 weeks.

I was under the impression that codes will all be in digital form but apparently that isn't the case.

Now, I'm in a situation where I won't be able to play for the game for 2 weeks as can't activate my game service and with the trial period ending in 3 days...

Is anyone else facing similar issues? what are the options available to us?
