Does PayPal (Credit Card) count?

The code should be sent within 2 weeks of purchase. So there are still a few days before you should receive the code if you do qualify.

But I ordered it on the 8th of December. So it's been A week and 4 says. So surely it would've come by now.

Hi there,

Thanks for reaching out to us in forums for this question. Based on the Terms and Conditions from the promotion, it does require a credit card to be eligible. View the full promotion by

a 50/50 answer, however we can only go by what the Terms and Conditions say explicitly.

I hope that this helps you out.

It must be with a credit card or bankcard or paypal

As mentioned a prepaid code doesn't count

If the paypal account does not have a valid credit card attached to it, or direct bank connection, then the paypal account itself is not a valid payment method.
