OK last week we had a Livestream on Twitch (Friday 5th September 14) and they gave away a code that unlocked the Section 31 uniform. Now i followed the instructions and the code worked, a pop up said 'code successful/ redeemed'

Now the said uniform in the tailor the price next to it says price 0-500 zen. i select the pieces of the uniform and a pop up tell me 'section 31 uniform blah, blah: Free' and i click on the pop up.

Now when i go to purchase it, it still says I need to pay 500 zen when i dont need to its free and the pop ups tell me its free. Grr

Now according to the pod cast Capt Smirk said an email will be sent to my account in the game confirming the code has been recieved. I received no such email.

What do i do. thanks.

    I think it's just a bust at this point. A few hours after the livestream ended, I was getting reports from some of my friends that the code had stopped working even though it was supposed to be valid for 24 hours. And that was the fresh code that Smirk generated during the show.

    This will sound silly, but it worked for me.. I have no idea why.

    When that box pops up that gives you the two options of which section 31 uniform to use (The Free one or the Paid one,) double click on the free one. Don't select the option and hit 'Ok' like you normally would.

    If I clicked on the free and hit ok, it wanted to charge me 500 zen, but when I double clicked the free option, it took that. I'm now able to wear the Sect 31 uniform.

    I hope it works for you.
    Insert witty signature line here.
