On April 21, a PlayStation blog post cautioned that it might be “a full day or two” before PSN was restored. But it wasn’t until May 14 that the company announced it had started restoring some services. On May 1, Sony Executive Deputy President Kazuo Hirai told reporters that the service would be restored by the end of that week.
The roughly 77 million customers who have been affected by the outage will be welcomed back with a package of free services and premium content, which depending on where they live and what device they own, may include two free games, a selection of free movie rentals and more than 100 free virtual goods.
I’m seriously considering seeing if I can set up a new master account, because this just sucks now. I absolutely hate the Playstation Network and SONY, due to their lack of ability to communicate with customers, their lack of help when it comes to things like this and their general lack of human decency!. They lie! I’m STILL waiting for a password reset email from them, that they REQUIRED to have done.
I’m perfectly fine waiting as long as need be. I don’t have any complaints; I’m glad my information was safe and that Sony is fighting back with security updates and software changes. It’s much better than having the network slammed back online, only to have the same thing happen again. And I don’t need free perks either.
