Purchased a 2000 Wii Points Card Online, Turns Out It Was For The Wrong Region...

[Marbles]

I'm frustrated here and am looking for advice on what I should do.

Last night I bought 2000 Wii Points card for $13.99, when the redeem code came it turns out it was for European consoles.

Nintendo has region locked the cards, so I kept getting an error saying that I am using a card meant for another region.

I called up Nintendo and was told
"Nintendo of Europe and Nintendo of American are different companies, we cannot transfer or issue replacement points to your account friom the European card."

Which honestly frustrates me to no end.

I sent and email to NoA Management to see if there is anything they can do.. but I willing to take suggestions on what else I should do.

I am thinking about calling Nintendo again, see if there is someone else I can talk to.

Amazon will give you at least a $10 credit if you complain to them.

On the phone with a manager, who might push this through for me.

Hope all works out well for you. If you can get the 10 dollar credit, sell the point card to a European CAG (if you can find one) or someone else that can use it. That plus the ten credit should put you in the plus on what you originally spent.

Good luck on this.
