It’s Christmas, but several PlayStation 4 owners are having a hard time buying digital games from the store. That’s because there’s a PSN card redeem error popping up when users try to redeem a prepaid gift card in the store. So far, reports have come from worldwide, so it doesn’t seem to be a regional issue at the moment.
The most common error code that users are getting is “WC-40329-8.” This isn’t an actual issue with the PlayStation Network itself, as online services are working as expected. “I keep getting error code WC-40329-8 when I enter my gift card code,” wrote on Twitter user. “I am connected to the [PlayStation Network] as well.”
