    Anyone else having trouble with HMV Game Credit (or BuyGameCredit.com) recently?

    I've used the HMV site plenty of times to buy PlayStation Network credit - €20 code each time paid with Three phone credit - but on Thursday I got a message back saying: "Usage Restrictions. Your code has not been issued as your purchase has been flagged under our usage restrictions"

    The usual €20 plus 49c fee has been taken and I have had no joy contacting this crowd via phone, email or even Facebook - they have ignored every message I've sent - and there are others saying the same thing now on FB over the last few days, including UK people.

    Anyone heard if these have gone bust or anything?

    This is sorted now. They apologized for the delay and sent the code. Others are getting their codes too.

    I had the same problem with BuyGameCredit.com on 31th of August, 2017.
    I tried to buy PSN codes twice:
    1st - The 20€ was charged from my three account but the PSN code did not work.
    2nd - The 20€ was charged from my three account but I received the message: "Your code has not been issued as your purchase has been flagged under our usage restrictions."
    I opened two tickets and no response yet, I lost 40€.
