Really good deal IF it actually works. Sony caught on to the stacking and I am sure they are aware of this so why wouldn't they just take the 3 months of NOW and convert 3 months to premium and the rest of your plus to the regular tier....

I have no idea if it will work or not but it seems to be a gamble that Sony will not catch on and change how they are converting stuff. I would not buy into it unless you want NOW, well now and I don't think NOW has ever been worth it.

I think it is dead. Sony appears to be blocking payment.

Redeemed a month like others suggested. Will wait a week or 2 before I redeem. Had to turn off my ad blockers to get it to go through (using Chrome browser).

Although I just now realized the point conversion for PS Now is pretty s***ty. A month is only $9.99 so it should've been 999 points but instead it was 1999. PS Plus, PSN gift cards and most other games seem to be a 100:1 point/dollar conversion but PS Now is double that. Bastards.

Quote from vaylon :
Sony no longer allows for stacking of PS plus or PSnow as of a couple of weeks ago. If you have a current PS plus membership, you wont be able to add another till your subscription ends. ( I just had to deal with this yesterday). and as of right now, you can't even apply PSnow codes at all. They are blocked until the rollout of the new system, but evn then if you get the 3 months of PSN now and add it to your account?, you will only be given credit for a dollar amount of the difference between the plus and the now. Meaning you will get about 3 to 4 months of PlayStation new ultimate service for just 3 or four months. Then it converts back to playstation essential, which is what PS plus is now.
The only people who got to take real advantage of this idea were the ones who had multiple years of both before they did the blocking.
Check the playstation website for more details.
All they did with this was guarantee that I'll stick with Game Pass. I pretty much just got my PlayStation for The Last of Us anyway. I can't see anything they're doing that will Eclipse GPU.

At this point… I feel like Sony is going to be faced with a pretty tough decision. Seeing people with 6 years of PS+ but only 3 or PSNOW, they will literally have no additional profit off tons of users for years. They already put a stop to stacking…. I think they'll just end up delaying the launch of the new tiers until December or something. By that time all the people who bought a quick PSNOW for the conversion hack will be out their sub. All the grey market subs will be dried out or way too costly to make sense. I mean tbh I feel like we are setting this service up for complete failure by hacking it. We are talking about years of potential profit locked away…. Less incentive to make any use out of the program.

I'm sure they'll be fine with their 3.2 million ps now subscribers. Of which 99% didn't know about the "hack"

F Sony. I am not paying this much for it, series x better and you can get 1 year of gamepass ultimate for $30. Own both consoles. Sony and PS5 are too overhyped

New subs are completely turned off. People in this thread found 1 month codes on eneba. But buying from there, it's best to redeem your code immediately. Looks like the only path for you will be to pay the difference and upgrade at 60$ a year.

FYI You can stack PSPlus codes through your PSN account HOWEVER you will notice immediately underneath before redeeming that it states that you will NOT get a conversion which is absolute bullshit.

I have (2) 12-month PSN codes that have essentially become useless unless Sony reverses their decision.
Dude at least they warn you before. Big eyes emoji.

Don't think this will work out the way OP think it will.
I know for a fact that if you had a surplus of ps plus and got this you will be converted to PS plus premium June 13. If you had 5 years of ps plus and got this, that's a he'll of a deal.
