Purchased a digital game just before it went on sale

HI Skizelli,

It's highly unlikely, but you could try asking Billing Phone Support, although chances are they will not entertain the request as all purchases do say 'no refunds' and so on and this was more poor timing than anything else, but at least you will have asked.

I guess there's no harm in trying. Thanks for the reply.

Nope sorry. Offers are only valid from the times the go live so if you bought the game before the deal you just missed out, sorry.

You would need to try contacting support and speak to billing, but there is no guarantee that they will issue one.

I get why "New release" digital can't undercut retail pricing. But having sales on newly released games should be perfectly acceptable. For instance, Amazon just had most of the Xbox One launch exclusives on sale for $49.99 each (disc). This should have
IMMEDIATELY went into effect on the digital pricing of those games as well. But games on digital only go on sale after the game is old news it seems. I don't think I ever saw a second week release title on sale as a digital download title, but you see it CONSTANTLY
at retail.

I have pitched this thought before... If digital game purchases are to ever outsell Disc based, the secret has to lie in early release/access. Imagine the new Halo coming out DIGITAL ONLY for the first week, maybe 2. Imagine how many folks would jump at
that.

Pricing for Digital titles should always be equal to or lower than their retail disc counterparts if the DD market is to ever stand a chance. Paying more for digital is just idiotic, even though I personally prefer the ease of downloaded titles.
