Did the NZ trick and my VC was actually applied to my account... should I not use it?

[HBKSean216]

I am EST and did the NZ trick like almost everybody. I have done it the last 2 or 3 years and I am pretty sure my pre-order bonus VC was never added to my account until I switched back to EST. Am I good to spend that 105k VC or do I need to wait???

Yeah I think I will do that... did you get your VC added or know anyone else that did? I am 93% positive my VC has never been added when I switch to NZ.

How are so many people confused by on currency works??

If something says 165 NZ that doesn't mean you are charged 165 dollars lmao... 165 NZ is roughly $100 USD. If you purchased something for 165 NZ with your US based credit card, the credit card automatically will charge you the correct conversion amount because the card is funded by USD not NZ.

So am I able to do this on PS5 or is this an Xbox only thing?

I bought the 100.00 US version, changed my region, and all my pre-order bonuses were available. I applied my VC no problem.

Technically yes, but I believe you need to select NZ as your region when you first setup your PSN account (because your region is locked upon account creation), whereas on Xbox you can just set any account to NZ at any time.
