Hey guys,

I imported the game from the US and it arrived today, everything was cool until setting up the billing account for the PSU Guardian License. Apparently my address needs to be in the US for me to have access to the Guardian License (otherwise only the Blue Burst Hunter License is available), and the billing address on my card is obviously from the UK, so there is no possible way for me to get a Guardian License... or is there?

Is there a way around this, or have I wasted my money http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif

From what I've heard if you change your region from UK to US you'll be able to get the hunters licence, I'm actually not sure if you can change your region on your gamertag, but you could just make a free silver account and make it US, since you can play psu online with a silver account it shouldn't be a problem.

Thanks for the replies, what is this silver account?

I already tried testing with setting my region to USA, but then it asks for my billing address, and that is here in the UK, so it clashes with the USA region I set it to, thus an error occurs.

If this is the case, then anyone importing from the US will have the same problem as me, correct?

I don't know how some UK players are getting online, I've tried all the methods posted, and I always get an Error 192. I'm thinking the workaround that allowed UK players to play may have been fixed, which is a shame.
