I've just noticed on my PSN ID card that I have become Austalian over night :Confused: I've looked on PlayStation.com and I cant seem to fathom where on Earth I can change it either. I've logged into the SEN website and my details still say UK, unless I'm missing the point here?

 

I haven't changed anything so its strange how its happened.

Stay away from any link posted buy Aussies.

there au.playstation.com instead of uk.playstation.com, so will require you to navigate  au.playstation.com. this alters the cookie for the next time you visit.

 

go back to uk.playstation.com and change the county back to what you want.

log out then log back in.

Go to your account details and refresh account details then update your Portable ID with no changes  youll then get the what ever flag back

Ahh I found it now. I couldn't see it for looking lol.

I noticed the AU address in the adress bar but when I went back it changed to EU. I cant remember following any links or visiting anywhere/anything Australian related :Confused:

No nothing. Nothing in my browsing history that I can see either. Its like it did it on its own (I doubt it did but that's how it seems).
