    It will work on a North account.
    It will not work on a South account.

    Cheers, Finally got sorted had to register the account in the uk to use the code.Went back to shop and they gave me a number for Play station customer care. Good job it worked as the shop where code was bought would not be able to refund money because the code was activated. Took all day to get through on phone because all lines mad busy, held for 50 minutes first time and nearly 35 the second time. Dread the phone bill. Thanks .

    Are you saying we can't use UK ps codes?
    If so why do HN sell them?

    http://www.harveynorman.ie/gaming/ps4/playstation-plus-360-day-subscription.html

    I need to buy a ps plus subscription so was going to get one on cdkeys.com
    Any ideas?

    It's possible Harvey Norman are just using the wrong image but a UK code will most definitely not be redeemable on an Irish PSN account.

    K, thanks for that.
    Is Sony direct the best for Ps Plus subscriptions?

    Your right Definetly a uk code will not work on Irish account. We had to register a uk account on the play station even though were in the republic, only because there was no refund going to be given from the store in northern Ireland where we bought it.Worked out ok in the end.

    I see so many of these threads. I know it is confusing,

    Always someone getting an incorrect code for a different country or trying to keep a few euros off a PS subscription.

    Best way is to buy directly from Sony and have it autorenewing.
    €50 done and dusted.

    Another easy way is to buy from Argos Ireland if you dont want it to auto renew. €50.00 also with them.
