Not working for returning subscribers. Mine expired about 6 months and it's still pulling up full price at checkout despite showing up in the deals page.

Ha, just my luck, I bought this the other day for $15 more.

FINALLY! Thank you OP!

I am an returning customer but the PS Plus expired in Nov 2022. I was able to stack 2. Had to login using my PC, then click on "Join Playstation Plus" and then saw the 29.99 price. When I tried to purchase the second one and stack, gave me credit card expired error. Was able to pay using paypal and checkout.

Worked for me finally. My sub expired on 16th Dec so after 24 hours of expiry I was able to renew for $30. This will be a problem in a few years. If Sony continues same days for the sale then I can't renew if my renewal date falls after 20th Dec.

Mine is expiring 12/17. Currently it only shows the full price. I'll let it expire and see if this deal pops up for me in those 3 days between 12/17 and 12/20 🤞

Update: the offer appeared after the previous subscription expired at 12 am today 18/12.

My account that expired 12/18 is showing 30% off for extra and premium and nothing for essential. I haven't seen anything for a percentage off before. Anybody else?

If I get this do I have to activate it right away to start the clock or can I wait?

Quote from LazyCouchPotato :
If you have a PS5 and haven't had a PS4, you get access to the PS Plus Collection which has all the essential PS4 games: Bloodborne, Detroit: Become Human, God of War, The Last Guardian, The Last of Us Remastered, Uncharted 4 and more.

PS Plus games are given every month, but they can be a hit or miss - and you'll lose access to them once the subscription expires.

Other than that, if you don't play online games, there's no need as such for PS Plus.

Thank you. I got access to ps collection even though I had an account and used to play on my buddy's ps4 long time ago. This might be the best decision I made this year 😂

Wasn't giving discount for me the first few days, but it does now. My sub ended early this year. I'll probably pass anyway since I have GPU.

I'm a first time plus member and seems like it started right away with an expiry date in 2023 from the day you purchase.

It is not working for me. I'm a new subscriber and it will not show me the discounted price.

only works on new or returning members (meaning not currently active). I tried it on my active account and will not show sale. On old account with different email it shows.

Just checked, it's the cancellation button. Then it tells you when it expires which will be at the end of the 12 months of your subscription.
Thank you for double checking. I figured that was the only way to cancel auto renew.

Worked. Finally! Logged back in tonight to pick up Sagebrush for $0.59, went back to PlayStation home, clicked on 50% PS Plus sale, and added to cart. 50% off messaging was very clear this time, obvious they made some type of update. Stacked for 3 years @ $90.
