Re: Singstore connection problem

Thanks for that but seriously surely you would expect it to connect at least once.

Just for peace of mind, if I can connect to the sony store and EA servers then it nothing i am doing or have setup incorrectly

Re: Singstore connection problem

Yes yes yes, the Singstar servers are total rubbish. I have had no end of problems trying to connect and buy new songs. Had a load of mates over for New Years Eve and it took 4 hours to buy and download 7 new songs.... terrible!

Re: Singstore connection problem

Made a mistake
despite reading about these servers problems I tried to buy a Song pack from the store 2 days ago.

Connection to the server is hit and miss but when downloading eventually starts, after a while I would get the aforementionned UEs error messages

I am going to give it a final try today but then if it aint working, I would like to claim my money back.

Problem is that I bought the PS3 in Japan and now live in China so no official SONY Customer Service over here

Who do you reckon I should contact

Re: Singstore connection problem

had a moment where it was playing up last night but managed to buy and download 7 songs successfully from it. Takes a bit of patience every now and again though you shouldn't really have to tolerate poor service.

Re: Singstore connection problem

This is pretty slow getting around the tracks and at times, it really hangs up. This has not stopped the Mrs spending a tenner on it though..
