I brought it home and typed it into my PS3 and it is not activated. I called Sony and they said that the store should have a # they call to activate them. Does anyone know what this # is, or how do I go about activating these cards now??

I have a new $50 Playstation Network card, but it does not have the magnetic strip across the back of it. When I bought it from the store, they just scanned it and said that it should automatically activate. I brought it home and typed it into my PS3 and it is not activated.

Thanks a lot, Brad. Best Answer: When I got mine, is had a strip, on the back of it.

You're supposed to scratch it off, with a coin, or something. Then, when it is fully off, or when you can see the numbers/letters, go onto the Playstation 3, and follow these steps: 1. Be on the Playstation 3 XMB (Xcross Media Bar).

Go to the Playstation Store. At the Top Right of the screen, is a 'Redeem Code' button. Type in the code, that is on the back of the Playstation Network Card. You should have it, activated. • Tell us some more • Upload in Progress • Upload failed.
