Bought my Vita March 2012. I can't remember if I ever received the claim form or not.

 

[Jawmuncher]

Just got my email as well. Ahh yeah credit to save until the next flash sale.

 

[Honome]

Recived mine today! Just in time to spend it on September, so many games to buy next month!!!!

 

[Slackerish]

Hmmm, I missed this. Can I still apply? If yes, where/how?

Deadline was June 30

 

[legacyzero]

Just got mine.

 

[Matriox]

Got my vita launch day, I recall applying for the settlement and haven't gotten shit since. I don't think I'll get anything, but I got good value out of my Vita, even bought a 2000 lol. Cant be too bummed if I don't get a voucher.

 

[Paznos]

Just got mine as well, nice

 

[PrinceKee]

This is the one we had to mail in the form and pick our rewards right?

 

[Epcott]

Recieved but was too afraid to follow the link

 

[Shizuka]

Just got my email as well. Ahh yeah credit to save until the next flash sale.

That's my case as well, either that or saving money for Cyber Sleuth next year.

 

[Morning Star]

Nothing here yet. Just the same Viagra and hot desperate older women emails in the junk folder.

 

[beason52]

For people wondering what this is, it is from a case against Sony alleging false advertising with the PS Vita's launch advertising campaign. It definitely could be done online, as I never mailed anything in and got the $25 PSN credit as well.

 

[Cess007]

Hopefully my mail comes soon

 

[miku]

No email

Sony hates me

 

[PaulKersey]

[HardRojo]

A friend just told me about this lol. His code already came in. I don't remember whether I finished filling the form or not out laziness. Damn :/ No email so far.

Huh... Well, I posted three times in that thread. Surely I filled it out.

Spoiler

Dammit, past me. You better not have screwed this up!

 

[finalflame]

Got mine. Now, to spend this on Phantom Pain or Until Dawn..

 

[dark-knight]

Barely redeemed mine!
I can't decide what to use it on; I'm just glad it wasn't really a sketchy website stealing my info.

 

[Evoker1995]

I'll see if I get one. I think I forgot to send in my claim in the mail so I might be out of luck.

 

[Bluekaveli]

I missed out on free money. Fml.

 

[……forgetit]

So I have $25, what game should I buy? My favorite genras are 3D platformers and story based RPGs, I have a PS4 and Vita.

 

[Icyflamez96]

Wait what how do you get this? I would have loved to have gotten some free money...

 

[Zonic]

So how long will we have to wait for the claim form about getting those free months of PS+ for not partaking in the Welcome Back program & such? I was getting about 6 months worth because I qualified for something else as well.

Edit: Yeah, this settlement. I got 3 months of PS+, then another 3 months because I didn't get any of the free games back in 2011 from the Welcome Back program. Wonder when we'll hear about that.

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

Just redeemed. Perfect timing.


Wondering if I should get MGSV digital now >_>

 

[PHOENIXZERO]

I did it but I don't remember if I chose the PSN credit or the check. I was just thinking about this too a few days ago.

Wait what how do you get this? I would have loved to have gotten some free money...

I was going to write out an explanation but I'll just quote the e-mail we got in early April.
