Worst PSN loss- ALL 668 of my trophies,saves are gone.Sony pls make change in PSN!

Worst loss of a PSN account- 668 trophies, saves of 31 games. Sony need to improve this by allowing PSN sub-accounts play 18+ games on-line. Or make the sub-accounts upgradable when the person actually turns 18.

from this-

My old PSN sub-account-



To this-

My new PSN Master account-



My Father's PSN Master account-



According to Sony PSN rules, there are two types of PSN accounts-

• Master Account (for 18+)
• Sub-Account(for all unlucky under 18)

Now, when Sub-account buys anything does anything, Sony takes money from Master account. Also,

quote

Those who has sub-account CAN NOT PLAY 18+ (Parental Control level 9) GAMES on-line.

Even if you have played them off-line for F***ing 2 years and got 668 trophies.

Second ridiculous thing is,
I had to create sub-account because I still have bloody 7 months (22 Dec 2011) to turn 18 yrs.
I thought sub-account can be upgraded to master account once I turn 18 yrs. in real life. But EVERY official PS Community forum says that you can't upgrade your sub-account to a master and ALL of your saves,trophies are stuck on that crappy sub-account and you won't be able to play any 18+ games on-line, thus, you won't be able to platinum many of them.

So, I enter my RE5:GOLD copy and it says "my PSN account does not have the permission to play on-line due to the Parental Control restrictions" I entered AC 2, GTA IV, RDR and all of my 18+ games (every PSN game I have is 18+ except Uncharted2) and still nothing.

So, I checked parental control through my dad's account and it's only about chat and there are no setting for control, THEN I searched and found the bloody truth about this PSN sub-account and Master account fiasco.

OK, you read this? I bet many of you won't reply but it's real, see the MANY sources-

EU PSCommunity- Upgrade from sub to Master PSN, possible?

So, please tell me what should I do? Calling Sony doesn't help according to the PS Community.
When I will be 18, will the sub-account allow me to play 18+ games, on-line?

PLEASE REPLY!

[EDIT]-
++Update++

So, nothing can be done about my old account and many say that sub accounts don't upgrade to Master accounts (Read the sources above). And thus, even if my DarshD93 account has many trophies, I won't be able to play on-line with it, so no on-line trophies for 18+ games and no plat for them.

I decided that I will not use my father's PSN. So, I created a new PSN with birth date- 25th Dec 1990. Which makes me 20 at the moment.

My new PSN ID is- DarshD555

I've learned my lesson about Internet and forms but if anyone comes to you asking about PSN or XBL age related questions, please tell them to lie otherwise they'll lose everything like I did .

Neoseeker and Neoseeker members were very helpful to me and I hope this new PSN ID does well. I still can't access PS Home but it's maybe because my Account is Indian. But, who cares, I can now play 18+ games on-line.

But Sony needs to make sub-accounts upgradable when the person turns 18. And this must be done in System Update soon.
Let's hope the Facebook group does something about this-

Thanks everyone.

Wow I didn't even know PSN account actually discriminate people based on age. That sucks! But yeah Darsh, you shouldn't have used your real birth date when you first registered. Look at how far honesty can get you in the world these days? The only drawback for not using your real birthdate would be if you forget your password (and the fake birthday) you wouldn't be able to do password recovery.

I would assume that when you turn 18 your account should be automatically upgraded to master. Otherwise I would definitely call Sony and complain.

quote DarshD

isn't it illegal to fake our date of birth?

Err I guess the answer to that question would depend on what country you live in, but I highly doubt Sony would actually pursue legal action against someone who supplies fake birthdate on their PSN account.

In fact, it would be stupid to give Sony or any other companies or websites your personal info because chances are they will get hacked and you will be the one getting *bleep*ed over.

Well that sucks.. What I don't get is how come you have only 2 platinums if you have 600+ trophies, I'm sure you had to be close to plat lots of games besides those two.

no one is going to catch you if you lie about your age. I lied about my age all the time and still do when certain gametrailers ask me for my age. My birthday is always January 1 *then scroll down and pick a lucky year*

discrimination is definitely not the right word to use here... lol

I feel for you Darsh, I'll help you get the trophies back though

I still don't fully understand his problem. What's wrong with your Darsh93 account? I see you have trophies for GOW3 so you could obviously play 18+ games before. Why not just carry on using that account?

For all intents and purposes, my birth year is 1920. While I'd still be able to play 18+ games if I put in my real birth date, it's better to be safe than sorry.
