Black Friday Promo Outside US

Are the Black Friday promotions also available in the UK? I have my eye on that Holo Leeta but it's hard to buy $50 worth of zen with £.

Also I couldn't help but notice that one needs to spend a round $50, but the packs are $49.99...

    I am from Canada and purchased the $100 deal. Received 13,500 points in total. You should be able to pick up Holo-Leeta and one or two extra items. So the same thing should happen if you get the $50 deal. Unless there is something stating that the UK is not eligible for the Black Friday promotion, then it should work.

    Also, the Holo Leeta appears to be Account Wide not just for one character unlike what it says about only getting one character for your account.

    I don't think you see my point. I can't buy the $100 deal. I don't want to spend that much, for one, but mainly it's because charging in the UK is done with GPB (£), not USD.

    I never said you should buy the $100 deal, I was just showing my experience with purchasing the $100 deal to show that you would get something similar with the $50 deal. I said in my previous post, "So the same thing should happen if you get the $50 deal."

    I received for free 2,500 Zen in addition to the 11,000 Zen that $100 US provides. So the $50 deal will give an additional 1,250 Zen and 6,250 points to purchase the Holo-Leeta and the Orange Tabby Cat with 250 points left over. Whether it costs 40 pounds or more, I don't know, but it shouldn't cost $100.

    When I did it, it checked the zen number instead of the amount of real money. Since there is currently a bonus when you buy zen, you gain the bonus as points as well. So, for $50, you gain 5500+330 Zen, which is above the milestone to get Holo-Leeta.

    You can check your reward amount and claim the rewards here: https://www.arcgames.com/en/games/star-trek-online/rewards
    Bought for $19,99 of Zen and I could grab the Peregrine fighter. Since I already have it, I grabbed the 1000 points tabby, instead.

    I just noticed the 25% discount on all the ships so I picked up the T6 Sovereign that I'd had planned on getting. Not sure which pack to get next while the discount is in effect.

    I'm mainly interested in the Holo Leeta. I've gone and spent £39.99 but where do I claim the reward(s)?

    This afternoon I bought for 49,99 Euro Zen. I got the Zen, but don;t see any rewards. Adfter I purchased the Zen. I went into the game, saw my Zen, but the store had all the normal prices, no discounts. Now, late night, I see the discounts, but where are my reward points?

    It looks like the rewards are based on how much zen you buy, not how much you spend as the page would suggest. Actually claiming the rewards is not at all intuitive.
