well so far i cant add funds on my vita still have to log in on the master account on my PS3 to add funds or PSN cards

but when i purchase something from the store or rate something on the store it gives me the option to post that to facebook and when i say yes it DOES appear on my facebook page

i cant try the facebook app as its not working and has been removed from the store but the twitter app works well and has no restrictions and everything else on there you can remove parental controls from

SO sony

if you can do this on the vita why cant you do it on the PS3 on a sub account?

if you cant fix it to upgrade a sub account as the ps3 software just isnt capable then surely you can give everything parental controls so we can allow ourselfs to do things like we can on the vita

O.K, now that we know you can only have one account tied to a PlayStation Vita console this whole stupid sub account business is going to be even MORE of an issue, as we won't be able to switch to our respective Master Accounts on it to add money when we want to buy something! We'll have to log on to our PS3's every single time we want to add funds! Seriously guys, we need to come up with something to get Sony's attention on this and realise how URGENTLY this NEEDS fixing, like all of us PM the mods here, leave comments on the PS Blog, or all email Sony themselves, or something. Anything! Any thoughts guys? :/

this is very annoying yes! they no im over 18 im a beta tester for gods sake just let me switch to master!

mine was set upp as a sub my wife the master as we thought it would be easier! big mistake..... i acidently downloaded FF tactics on her account in the sale for my vita an now cant put it on, however in regards to ps3 game add on content we can both play it if its downloaded on her account... grrrr

let me upgrade to a master account sony!

I have also added a link to this thread an petition to the Vita forums

[BoonyBoy]

You don't have to use your ps3 to add funds, you can log on to you SEN account online and add funds that way as well as manage card details, passwords, parental controls etc...
I know it's not that solution to this infuriating problem but at least if you don't have access to a PS3 anymore you can access your master account online.
Hope this helps.

I havent bought the vita because I refuse to unless I am able to have my account changed to master. Same reason I didn't buy a ps3. This is beyond ridiculous now - if Microsoft can do it, why not playstation? I say that as someone who has had one in the house or owned a playstation console since '96.

I remember someone contacted a mod about this. Any more news?

Also, we now have 61 signers on the petition. This problem is not going away by itself.

[ChambyR33]

still nothing

i guess sony is just hoping if they dont do anything we will just forget about the problem

[sofakingkiller]

there will be a sub-account zombie apocalypse!!!!

where is this petition and how do i sign?

[April_Croft]

Unfortunately my petition closed - I think they're only allowed to be open for a certain amount of time.

Anyway - while it was open we got 70 online signatures, as well as a load of comments and complaints - surely that along with this thread is enough to show that this is a persistant problem? I vaguely remember a mod saying they were looking into this issue but that was a while ago. Does someone (I'm a noob and don't know any of the mods - also I'm on my mobile and it's very tempramental) wanna contact a mod regarding this thread and a link to my petition and see if we get anywhere? I'm sorry if the petition was no help at all guys, but fingers crossed it is - people from all around the world signed it and this problem needs fixing asap!

[April_Croft]

Also sorry for the double post but when I spoke to Mr. USA customer service help man a while ago he said we needed numbers - we've got numbers therefore it should now be taken into account am I right? I think I posted my message and his reply a few pages back *crosses fingers this can finally be sorted*

[John_Mc_Clane_4]

Everyone vote here now at this link to get Sony attention on this issue! If we get enough votes maybe they might take notice, so get everyone you know to vote on every account they have, if it gets a huge amount of numbers then they'll have to notice. Thanks
