I just checked on my PS4, looking for the theme shop, and yet here it is: the sweet sound of nothingness.
Sony doesn't want me to celebrate Christmas, I see. What a Grinch!

I didn't receive it either. I had read on some other thread that playstation had some issue working with gmail and that the person had been told to use another provider by the Sony customer service. Don't remember of the thread or if it ended up being BS but I wonder if it is something like that. I haven't received my Bloodborne platinum theme yet either. Maybe I need to set up a different email account just for them...

LOL, I got the email but there's just theme inside.

Then I tried to view the email in text only mode and there are 2 discount codes!

What are they doing? I remember this happened last time when they were sending out codes.

Try it out guys.

No code for me. Been a PS Plus customer since near when it started on the PS3 too.

Tight to hide the theme behind a code though, they used to just put the holiday ones up on the store for free.

Me getting my Platinum Trophy themes is hit or miss so I don't expect to get this.

I tried the plain text trick and apparently, I got the "here's a theme" mail twice. Cursed campaign.

No luck here. I got the 2017 Holiday Theme but not 2018. If anyone isn't planning on using their discount code, I could make use of it.

Thanks, I tried it and I actually got 3 more codes. It looks like this (in german):

Moment ... es gibt noch mehr, XXXXXX! Wie wär's mit einem kleinen Extra, um deine Sammlung dieses Weihnachten ein bisschen zu vergrößern?
Damit du die Feiertage stilvoll begehen kannst, haben wir ein kleines Geschenk nur für dich: Erhalte 0 Rabatt auf die Artikel in deinem PS Store-Einkaufswagen!

Verwende dazu einfach deinen persönlichen Code XXXXXXXXXX am Ende des Kaufvorgangs. Gültig bis 20/12/2019 00:59 CET.

But it says I get "0" discount with these codes... lol. I assume this is an error and I'll get a real discount if I use them, but I don't know how much.
I never used a discount code on PSN, how do they work? Are they only lost if I actually click on "purchase" and pay or are they already gone/wasted when I just use them in the shopping cart?
I would like to think it is the former, but I don't have much faith when it comes to things like that on PSN Store.

I got two 20% codes. One of them was hidden and I extracted it with the .eml trick. Thanks for the heads up!

When US getting it?

Care more for the discount codes and less about the theme

Do you get this if you aren't a ps+ subber right?

I never, ever get these emails. The only PlayStation emails I ever get are 'thank you for your purchase' stuff.

As always, nothing. But I do get PSNow and PS+ mails... Trying the gmail + trick to see if I might get lucky later.
