Playstation PSN ID Question

[Ewan]

I created my PSN account in Saudi Arabia and I thought for the foreseeable future, I would still be living there.

But I've moved to the UK now, so is there anyway for me to change my location? It's not a big deal but I do know that UK accounts have access to BBC iPlayer whilst Saudi accounts don't even though I am in the UK.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I think you can go to your account manager to change this, but I'm not totally sure. There should be something about your personal information like your name and e-mail address and such, I believe you'll find it there.

Even if it doesn't believe you for whatever reason, your internet connection should at least be traceable to the UK as well, but that's getting too advanced for me.

I don't think you're able to change it Might have to start a whole new account. However, I have no personal experience in this xD So...I could be very wrong indeed.

Stang seems to have the right idea, though.

no to get a new name you need to create a new account

^^ That's what I was thinking too go to Account Magment once you've logged in and somewhere in there you should be able to change it. I think it has something to do with your postal code (in your case since your in the UK though, its different in the US) so if you change that it shoud change your location too
Though i heard it doesn't change it....

the only other way would be to make a new account.

But you'll loose all your trophies and whatnot so idunno up to you.

Thanks for the help. Turns out I can't change it.

It's no bother though, I created a new EU account so I can buy stuff from the PSN store.

It seems like a design flaw to me though. People move about!
