  I am filing this complaint regarding my purchase of the digital game Expedition 33 from the PlayStation Store.Initially, the game launched and worked for less than one hour of playtime. This playtime is retrieved directly from my profile which is the only source of playtime I am able to access. Shortly after, I began experiencing a persistent error code CE-******-1, which causes the game to crash immediately back to the PS5 home screen. Since then, the game has been completely unplayable.I have taken every recommended troubleshooting step, including deleting and reinstalling the game, rebuilding my PS5 database, updating system software, and checking for corrupted data. Despite these efforts, the issue remains unresolved.I have requested a refund multiple times, citing California consumer protection laws specifically California Civil Code 1770 (Consumer Legal Remedies Act) and Business and Professions Code ********************************************************** unusable digital content. However, PlayStation Support has denied my requests, incorrectly relying on their internal refund policy over state law.Given that the product is defective and unusable for the majority of my experience, I am seeking a full refund and urge Sony Interactive Entertainment to comply with California consumer protection laws.

  I purchased a digital game from playstation store on 7/16/20225 and the game work on initial purchase day. The game never worked after that and continues to not work presently. I called playstation on 7/18/2025 for a refund which has been denied due to 5hr playtime in initial purchase day. ps report number ********. I believe this is deceptive and/or unfair practices for playstation to sell a unworking game and refuse refunds.

  DATE 07/29/2025 AMOUNT $52.99 DESCRIPTION Rust Console Edition I made the above purchase (digital download of the video game Rust). PlayStation has this policy that says, "If I stream or download the product, I am not entitled to a refund. I received that information today, July 31, 2025, literally two days after purchasing the product. I never streamed the game. The game lags badly and is missing content from its PC version. Essentially, what PlayStation is saying is that I can buy the product (digitally), but if you play it, then the game is yours. I had the game for less than two days. How can you know whether you will like something or not unless you test it? $52.99 is a drop in the bucket for what this "billion-dollar" company makes, and it's not like I make a habit of asking for a refund. I would even take PlayStation Store Credit, as I'm sure there will be a future PlayStation title I would want to purchase.

  I also would like to thank **** for resolving this issue quickly. I can confirm I received correspondence from them and have provided the email they sent minus identifying information.

  I would also ask that they review their policy as not all of their digital content has a demo version. Consider allowing customers at least 3-5 days after purchase to download and test the game or make each digital game with a demo version so people can test it before purchase. This will eliminate refund requests.

  My PlayStation account (saad-_-xpvp) was permanently suspended over 6 years ago due to an alleged violation marked as fraud. However, the situation was actually a misunderstanding between me and close friends during my teenage years. No scam or fraud occurred it was simply a joke that was ***************** the time, I was young and unaware of how to properly appeal or contact support. I did not receive any prior warning, nor a chance to explain my side before the suspension.Recently, I contacted PlayStation support multiple times (via email, phone call, and social media), but Ive received no response or help in re-evaluating the case.I respectfully request a re-investigation into this issue, as this false flag on my account has caused me long-term damage. I have matured, learned from this, and am asking for a second chance.Please help me get in touch with someone who can fairly review my case.

  Complaint: 23674604
  
  I am rejecting this response because:

  My response to the business:
  
  
  I appreciate the response from Sony Interactive Entertainment; however, I must respectfully reject it.
  
  
  The reply I received does not address the core issue raised in my original complaint, which is the unjust permanent suspension of my account (saad-_-xpvp) due to a misunderstanding that occurred years ago when I was younger.
  
  
  Their response simply states that the account belongs to a different region, but fails to provide:
  
  
  A direct review or reassessment of the suspension decision.
  A contact channel that is confirmed and responsive in my region.
  Any indication that my case was actually re-evaluated based on the context I shared.
  
  
  
  
  I have already contacted the regional support team multiple times, and their response was that the suspension cannot be lifted without explaining the case or offering any chance to appeal or clarify what happened.
  
  
  There was no scam, fraud, or malicious activity involved. It was a misunderstanding between me and a few friends something that happened over six years ago as a joke. This is my first and only account, and I was never warned or educated about the consequences at that time.
  
  
  The suspension was issued as a result of a mistake on ***** side in judging the situation. The actions were misinterpreted, and I was permanently banned without a proper investigation or communication. I strongly believe this decision was based on inaccurate assumptions.
  
  
  Now that Im older and more responsible, Im simply asking for a fair chance an internal review by the proper department to understand the full picture. I sincerely believe in second chances and that permanent bans should not be final in such cases without proper evaluation.
  
  
  I kindly ask BBB to keep this case open and request that **** provide a more complete and direct response to my actual request not just a regional redirection.
  
  
  Thank you for your time and support
  
  Sincerely,

  Complaint: 23674604
  
  I respectfully reject the response from Sony Interactive Entertainment as it fails to address the core issue I raised.
  
  
  The permanent suspension of my account (saad-_-xpvp) was based on a false interpretation of a situation that occurred years ago. I was much younger at the time, and what happened was a joke between close friends, not an actual fraud or scam attempt.
  
  
  I have attached the original email that informed me of the ban. As you can see, the reason cited is simply fraud without any explanation or evidence. This vague reasoning is not acceptable, especially when it led to a permanent ban and loss of access to all my purchases and personal data.
  
  
  It is clear to me now that this was a mistake in judgment by the moderation team. Either:
  
  
  They misinterpreted the situation,
  Or they failed to understand the cultural or language context at the time.
  
  
  
  
  I was not contacted, warned, or given any opportunity to explain before the ban was issued.
  This violates the principles of fair treatment and proper customer service.
  
  
  
  
  I am formally requesting one of the following:
  
  
  
  
  A full review and reversal of the account suspension, OR
  A full refund of all purchases made under this account if access cannot be restored.
  
  
  
  
  This is a clear example of an unfair and unjust ban. Ive tried every support channel in my region without success, which is why I escalated the case through BBB.
  
  
  Please do not close this case until a real and fair resolution is provided.
  
  
  Sincerely,
  **** ********

  ?To Whom It May Concern:?I am filing a formal complaint against Sony Interactive Entertainment regarding the unjust suspension of my PlayStation Network account. My account was banned due to a chargeback initiated with my bank for a purchase I did not authorize: the game "Kingdom Come Deliverance 2" for $134.99. This purchase was made by my child without my knowledge or permission.?I have been informed by PlayStation Network that to regain access to my account, I must repay the $134.99. I strongly dispute this requirement, as I am not responsible for the unauthorized purchase and do not wish to own the game. Furthermore, I have invested a significant amount of money in other games and content on this account over time. The current ban prevents me from accessing these legitimate purchases, which I believe is a violation of my consumer rights.?I request assistance in resolving this matter, ideally by having my account reinstated without being required to pay for an unauthorized purchase.

  Between September 19, 2021, and January 19, 2024, I made a total of 31 digital purchases on my **** PlayStation account, totaling $655.46 before tax ($719.60 including $64.14 in tax).

I reached out promptly to **** PlayStation Support and explained the situation, as shown in the attached screenshots. Despite my attempts to verify my identity and recover access, **** refused to assist. Their support staff repeatedly stated that, "for security reasons," they could not reverse the changes or return my access, even after confirming that my account had unauthorized changes. They did not provide any further solutions or escalation ********** a result, I have lost access to all of my paid digital content, with no recourse from the company. This is a clear failure to honor the purchase agreement, as digital game purchases are supposed to grant ongoing access. I have provided proof of purchase and made every effort to resolve this directly with **** to no avail.I am seeking either the restoration of my account and access to all my purchased content, or a full refund of the digital purchases now lost due to ****'s failure to provide adequate support or account recovery

  About 2-3 weeks ago, my family and I received a PS5 as a gift from another family member. I created my adult account on July 11, and tried to create a child account for my brother who will use the PS5 more substantially than I will. He is too young for an adult account, so I believe this was necessary. Plus, the games he wishes to play requires a PS Network-connected account, either adult or ****** When trying to create the child account, I was greeted with a "Parent/Guardian Verification" page which simply required me to pay $0.50 for the first ****** I was willing to pay, put in my payment info, and was met with a "connection timed out" error. I thought it would be a simple fix through support, so I contacted them.The first time, they went through the usual troubleshooting (ex. change internet, browsers, etc.), to no avail. They requested I wait 24 hours (+ added funds), but it still errored. The second time (#********), they "escalated" the issue to a higher department, promised an email in at most 5 days. I had not received an email in that time. I contacted support again, to which they said there was no response on the case and quickly shut down the chat. I contacted support one last time today (#********), and they acknowledged that "that department does not handle this type of issues." I asked if it could be redirected to someone else, and said they couldn't. They said I would have to make a new account instead of using this one.This is very frustrating. The last agent and I agreed it was an issue with the website, and now my account's family management is basically broken and I will not be able to add any child accounts to it in the future. I wish to be able to use the main account that I use for any PSN transactions and ease of use with my brother's child account and not have to use throwaways.I hate that I have to come here to get it fixed, but there are no other ways provided by Sony.PSN ID: samlovesmath

  Bought my son a PS5 on fourth of July weekend. Had to order it then so it would arrive for his birthday party. Promo code box wasn't working and there is NO ONE to contact except a not that was worthless. The promo code listed on their website was for a trade in and then $50 off a new PlayStation. The customer service agent told me the $50 was not owed from their end when I have the info from PlayStation website and the promo code. Tried calling in multiple times for help and when it was my turn in line it automatically disconnected. Finally got a hold of someone through email and they refused help. It has been a week and I asked for it to be escalated to someone else besides customer service and no one responds.

  Complaint: 23653091
  
  I am rejecting this response because: PlayStation says I haven't been in contact with them even though I have a case opened and asked it to be escalated. They want me to re-do the process I just went through and got nowhere. PlayStation hasn't even escalated the case as I asked for them to do weeks ago. The promo is listed on their website previously included screenshots. Plus calling into customer service is laughable. The person was willing to help but could not even locate information listed on their own company's website plus a language barrier so we couldn't even get through anything with #'s or letters without redoing it 5 times because it was obvious that English is not their first language. Which is fine if there's no problem but if an employee can't find the information listed on the website to verify and you can't escalate a case within a week. This is my only recourse and would expect to receive the promotional discount listed on the website for my order based on your website malfunctioning over the holiday weekend. And again no one to contact because when you call in and get a place in line it disconnects when they call you back and about to talk to an agent. Rarely do people have time to sit on hold all day like this can't be the only way because it's an awful system.
