Sony looks to have finally put an end to sending out automated purchase confirmation emails when a PS Plus game is claimed by consumers.
Anyone who has claimed a PS Plus game will probably be too well aware of the ‘Thank you for your purchase’ email that is sent every time a game is redeemed from the service. The emails don’t actually mean you have bought anything, but nonetheless the wording of them sometimes worry people as it implies they have spent actual money.
However, users are starting to notice that Sony appears to have stopped sending them. One Reddit thread reads as follows:
So each month after I added the monthly Essential games to my library and downloaded them I checked my email afterwards and got a ‘Thank you for your purchase’ email for each of those games ‘purchased’, except I didn’t get any email like that this month after claiming Sackboy and the other two. I know it’s a silly question but I found it odd so I just wanted to check if it happened to anyone else?
I receive dozens and dozens of these emails for every single free DLC I download, while for the latest games (this month’s Essential) I haven’t received any emails. Tried to download a game from PS Plus Extra and nothing. It’s normal? Maybe Sony doesn’t send mail anymore?
