    Rough handling from a supervisor

    I use this subscription every evening to unwind after long shifts — it’s kind of my go-to for downtime — so when an account error kicked me out repeatedly, it mattered. I wasn’t angry at first, just annoyed, and asked for a simple fix plus a fair adjustment since it clearly interrupted weeks of use. Getting routed to a supervisor wasn’t the problem; that part was fine, actually. The rep I spoke with connected me to someone who said he was a supervisor right away, no hold, no fuss. But that’s where the experience went off the rails.
    He was polite enough in tone but kept insisting there was no way to grant a courtesy month because he “couldn’t prove” the platform’s error — even though the previous agent had documented the exact glitch and admitted it looked like their mistake. He wouldn’t look at that documentation, or if he did he didn’t say so. At one point he refused to give his full title and then acted like that was normal; weird and unprofessional, honestly. He never offered any alternate solutions, never asked for my account details to double-check, and seemed unwilling to investigate further. It felt like talking to someone who had been told to close the call, not to help.
    I’m a repeat customer and would like to stay one, but this interaction left a sour taste. If they fixed the supervisor training — even just basic follow-through and reading existing notes — I’d be much more confident. Small wins like straightforward accountability (a free month, a clear apology, a check that it won’t repeat) would go a long way. Right now I’m hesitant, but still open to resolving it because the service itself is something I actually use and value.

    Controller saga turned out alright

    after a messy few weeks, PlayStation actually made it right — took longer than it should have, but I’m satisfied now. I first noticed the issue when I went to reset my two DualSense controllers (I’d seen the problem right after an update) and a friend who fixes consoles said “call support” so I did. I was mildly skeptical from the start — it just felt like one of those things that would get lost in the bureaucracy — but I wanted this sorted.
    Quick rundown: I couldn’t factory reset either controller, so I called. Support apparently can’t process two controllers on one repair order, so they generated two shipping labels. I only had one sturdy box and asked the rep if I could use just one label and send both in the same box. The person on the phone said yes, ignore the extra label, and to include a note with both repair numbers. I did exactly that.
    Fast forward: I got one controller back after a couple weeks, but the second never showed. That’s when the frustration kicked in — I called again, got told they couldn’t accept both in one box, but they’d escalate to their “special team” to look for it. Weeks went by, the special team said they couldn’t find it and that it was basically my fault. I sent a reply pointing out that I followed the phone rep’s instructions, and then got an automated message saying the mailbox wasn’t monitored. Great.
    I called back, waited, and after pushing a bit more, someone actually escalated it properly. That’s where things turned: they dug deeper, located the missing controller, and arranged a replacement shipment. They even apologized for the confusion and the delays, which helped — small gestures, but they mattered after the runaround. So yeah, not a smooth experience, lots of back-and-forth and some annoying dead ends, but the end result was a replacement and some clarity on how to avoid the mistake next time.
    If you’re sending multiple items, don’t assume one box is fine unless they confirm in writing. Lesson learned. Overall I’m happy it was resolved, just be patient and double-check every rep you talk to.

    I won’t be buying from PlayStation Direct again unless something changes. It’s not that the product was bad — it was the circus of delivery mistakes and the chat-only support that wore me out. I ordered, tried to get one straightforward package, and ended up chasing people across two companies for days. That’s the short version. Now the details, since someone might want to know exactly where it went wrong.
