Is it possible to buy multiple PS Plus subscriptions and load them all up? Thus if I buy 2x 365 day subscriptions, can I load them both so that my subscription only expires 2 years from now or do I have to load each code as they expire each year?

Confirmed. That's what I did last night.

Just bought a R150 90day sub from prepaid gamer. It's the most I could afford.

It is also all they have in stock . They were my first stop last night but they and Takealot were out of 365 days subs. Then went to Kalahari but they are so useless, they probably just took my money, will realise a week from now that they're out of stock and then refund me again.

I see the price is still R489 on Playstation store. Quickly adding funds to my wallet to buy that too.

Hey ViperGTI,

We already ordered more stock from SK this morning, and should be receiving it on Monday/Tuesday. From the looks of things, there's plenty of local prepaid stock at the current price, so buying locally should still be "cheap" for a good while. It's only if you buy directly through PSN that the price will be higher for now.

This is good news. Could you please update your respective thread once stock has been received?
