View Full Version : The new (and mod approved) Sony RLS thread

Late last year there was a topic for the Sony RLS but it was taken away for good reason - abuse of the system by non-retail employees. Since then the RLS has stepped up and fixed the loopholes, and because of that we have approval to re-start the RLS topic. Please do not try to take advantage of the system and ruin it for everybody here who is a legit user of the site (it will not work anyway). Talk of abuse will not be tolerated in any way.

Where can I find the RLS?
rls.us.playstation.com

What is the RLS?
The RLS stands for Retail Loyalty Site. It is where employees of certain retail establishments can learn about the Playstation family of products by reading and taking quizzes to earn points to get prizes.

Do I have to be a retail employee to get this stuff?
YES. You now must provide proof of employment PRIOR to getting any items sent to you from the RLS. There is no more sneaking in and getting free stuff before you are found out. If you do not provide proof of employment you will not get anything.


Congratulations! You are registered on the PlayStation® Retail Loyalty Site.
You can access advanced details and behind-the-scenes information about PlayStation products and earn points by learning and demonstrating your PlayStation knowledge. In order to redeem points for valuable items in the catalog and to be included in quarterly sweepstakes drawings, you must verify your employment with a qualified retail employer. You can verify your employment now or wait and complete your verification later.
Please allow 2-3 weeks for verification approval. You will be notified via email as soon your verification has been processed.

How do I know if I am verified, and how can I get verified?
When you sign up you are by default unverified. On the top right of the screen you will see where it says "Welcome (your name)". Under that it says STATUS: and will say either verified or unverified. Click on that and it will tell you what you need to do to get verified.

So say I have a job with a place like Best Buy now and I quit - can I still get this stuff?
No, if you are no longer an employee of an approved retail chain you are no longer eligible for the program. Sony does check on its own - a friend of mine quit in early December and by the end of December his account was deleted. There is also a link inside the RLS to terminate your account once you are no longer eligible.

Sounds great! How many of these quizzes can I take per day?
You can take 15 quizzes a day along with the daily quiz. I suggest doing the oldest quizzes first before they are taken down.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
The RLS as we know it is about to undergo a complete overhaul. When you log into the site you are greeted with the following message:

The RLS team has some exciting news!

The RLS will be relaunching in April of 2009 with a new look, new modules, auctions, pulse polls, social networking, more interactivity and a new catalog! The new catalog will include a deeper inventory, however, PlayStation will charge $10 per item ordered. With all of the new enhancements, we expect the RLS experience to be more robust with an emphasis on key selling points. You will also have the ability to share stories and tips with other RLS members providing you with an even greater PlayStation experience. We value your membership and look forward to providing this educational tool increasing your success on the sales floor with PlayStation products.

Some notes to consider-

Beginning February 1, 2009 and ending March 31, 2009, the current program will transition to a catalog only site, allowing for redemptions only. You must redeem your old points before the transition to avoid the new $10 charge.

Your current points will transfer as long as you update your info and sign up for the PSN prior to March 31, otherwise any remaining points will be donated to PlayStation Cares Child's Play Charity.

If you have any questions please email
[email link removed]

Please visit https://store.playstation.com/accounts/register/beginNewAccountRegistrationFlow.actionto to sign up for your PlayStation Network single sign-on ID.

So if you have lots of points I would make sure you have that single sign-on ID.

Now that Sony has these checks built into the RLS program, it should be one that can be discussed on CAG without concern of abuse.

I just saw that they are changing the system myself. Sucks that they are charging $10 per item, but I'm pretty sure 360 has it set up that way and things work well over there, from what I hear. Any chance they'll add anything new between now and the update? I have points, but I'd hate to spend them only to see something new and wonderful pop up and no points left to get it.

Also, I don't check the site very often, but do they have a regular time/day that they update the site with new stuff for order?

It's funny how the Microsoft retail site used to be great and the sony one used to be awful and then it did a total flip. Now that MS changed their site it's better but it sure is annoying how you have to "rank up" and crap. I don't mind paying $10 for a product, actually I'll gladly do it if it means things are in stock for once.

The question now is do I want to take a ton of tests before Feb and stock up points or just wait for the new site...hrm.

I would wait for the new site, I am still a little skeptical that the points will roll over.

I hate the new charge but it is normal for the industry. And getting a game for 1/3 of the price I Can't complain about. Either way, I am gald it can't be abused any more.

And they usually do updates on Thursday, but they didn't yesterday so it really doesn't bode well that they will have any updates.

Did anybody else win the Mortorstorm contest? I got an email with the title "MotorStorm Pacific Rift Grand Prize Winner Notification" and for a second I thought it was the quarterly sweepstakes. I really thought I had won a new PS3 and whatever else they had as the grand prize. Oh well - a free hat is a free hat LOL.

What have you got recently? Singstar Vol 2 just showed up at my door today and in the last few weeks I got 2 Dualshock 3 controllers and SOCOM. I am surprised how quick some of the games have gone up recently like SOCOM an the PSP Secret Agent Clank.

About the change, I have mixed feelings. I loved getting this stuff 100% free, but fully understand the need to charge something for it. I am ok with $10 - its better than saving a few bucks on employee discount. But I will miss the free days. Now they need to have a better selection and much better in-stock levels.

One thing I would love to see is PSN credit and/or games. These should be free (no need for shipping or any processing or any manufacturing costs). For a short time they had PAIN up on the rewards, but for some reason they took that section away. I would love for this to return and be *huge*.

Also I would like to see systems up on the site. Sony does have a generic rewards site up ( http://www.sonyrewards.com/ ) that has systems on it, so why not the RLS? Make it some crazy amount of points but at least have them up. Many retail employees can't swing $400 for a PS3 (plus I would not mind a second PSP or even a second PS3).

They had a small update not too long ago - I was able to get Singstar vol2 about 2 weeks ago and a DS3 not too long before that. I would assume they left those games they did leaveup up because they plan on restocking them soon.. just a guess. But if you have lots of points be sure to get that single-sign on so you do not get your points taken.

Just a reminder the "new" RLS is set to launch on Wed. Who knows if it will be packed with games or not - but its worth a look.

Something new I noticed when I logged in today there is a new box that says:

YOUR EMPLOYMENT VERIFICATION IS SET TO
EXPIRE IN (number) DAYS
For more details and to verify your employment, click herehttp://rls.us.playstation.com/images/Elements/Verification_BannerText.jpg (http://rls.us.playstation.com/Main/EmploymentVerification.aspx)

Great to see that they not only check you before you get anything, but makes you re-confirm.

Also - if anybody here works at Best Buy shoot me a PM.

Apple is not an approved retailer. It is places like Target, Sony Store, Gamestop, Best Buy, etc.

Looks like no re-launch today... or this month. When I log in I get a page that says that they will be back in May 2009. I hate to take anything as real with today being April 1st. but it did say this before:

The RLS will be relaunching in April of 2009

I would be shocked if LBP was not on it at the reward relaunch. Its been out a good amount of time now and really should be up. For the other games - I hope they add them faster now. I want to see Killzone and Motorstorm up - heck even inFAMOUS should be up. It would be nice if we could get the games when they are new and people are asking about them - I think it would help us sell them better :) I know on the old site they added some PSP games up really quick for some strange reason towards the end of the old site.

And systems REALLY need to be up as a reward. I got over 10k points burning a hole in my pocket.

Oh, did anybody else win the contest on the old site just before it closed? It was you took a training on some games and had the chance to win them. I won MLB09 and Locoroco 2. There was one other game up on the contest, but I forgot what it was. I got the games inthe mail about 2 or 3 weeks ago.

I almost want to say its a waste of time at this point... I signed people up in April and they *just* got approved. The rewards have never been updated as long as I have been a member and customer service is not happening. They were really good before, now its like nobody works there. And its a shame, the site could be great. You do have to work at Best Buy and they call your store and talk to your GM to verify you work there.

Anyway - enough about them.. I know I was the one who brought it up and I am slapping myself on the hand right now... sorry bout that.


Back to the RLS - how long can you keep stuff in your cart? Do you still have those games in your cart Likewise?

And they put a big Best Buy logo on my homepage now... Does anybody else have a banner with thier store logo on it?

And I just noticed I am on the all-time point leaders list... wheeee :applause:

Yea, I don't work at Best Buy so I may as well not bother with the EA site.

As for the cart, I was hoping to keep those games in my cart until I got everything taken care of with the address, but they seemed to have fixed that little glitch from the old rls site. It seems that the items will stay in your cart until they run out of them. I had inFamous, LBP, Resistance 2, and more that were systematically removed from my cart as they were removed from the prize catalog.

And yea, when logged into the RLS site it now has a GameStop banner around my login information.

Now if I could only figure out why I can't access http://www.us.playstation.com/MyAccount to update my address. Is anybody else having trouble accessing us.playstation.com. I just keep getting 'site timed out' errors.

I'm new with RLS. Everyone's talking about KZ2 and LBP but looks like those are sold out since I don't see them anymore. Do they come back after a while, and usually how long does it take?

It as great on the old site for timing the re-stocks. For a good amount of time it was on Thursday AM about 11ish for the looongest time. Ah those were the days! And it was on average every 2 weeks. Now its random.

And thanks for the heads up on the inFAMOUS - just picked it up. And R2 is up also, it was hard to hold off on that. If it was free I would have got it lol.

How do people get so many points on there.... if you do all the quizzes it'll bring you to like 4000 points maybe, yet I see people with tens of thousands of points.
I have been a member since late 2005 and I am in the 20s for the all-time point leaders list. I have no idea if I was on the list before the CC employee dump.

anybody have an idea of just how random re-stocking is? :D
my first time on RLS was a week ago and infamous wasn't there. checked back today but it was gone again, i must've missed it. i'm holding off on R2 as well. it's pretty tempting but i guess i'll save my points for when something else comes along.

btw anybody know the last time they saw pacific rift? just trying to get a feel for the new re-stocking pattern, if any.

I would say its too soon to see how random this is, if it is random.... this thread will help us figure out if there is a pattern.

As for motorstorm PR - I ordered it on 8/15/2009 and it was up for a few days after I got it.

And I am pretty sure yesterday was the first restock of inFAMOUS and R2 since day one. And has LBP come back at all yet?

Suxks about SOCOM not having the headset, it was how I got the headset on the old site.

I just got Motorstorm PR in the mail today - turnaround was just under 2 weeks. And they are using USPS now and not UPS like they did before.

Just curious....my buddy can get into this, but he was debating whether to go through all the quizzes. He asked me when do new games typically get added to the site? Such as Uncharted 2. He wants to make it worth his while....I told him it was cheap games, but he has most of the PS3 games.

games are now added to the site 90 days after they come out in stores. No idea if that is different than before or not.

I also learned that if you get 100% on the first try you get bonus points. So give it that extra effort.

Thanks....I suppose 90 days is "ok". I will pass on the information to him. He's the person that likes things now though....oh well.

My buddy finally signed up....maybe he will throw something my way for me pointing this out. I know he said Infamous was up and he got that. So, 90 days....that would make Uncharted 2 available....when?
