So, just bought a plex, and on the account management page it states "You currently have 1 PLEX in the redeeming system" . i checked the redeeming system (im a steam user, bought starter pack) i found 42 items from the starter pack and no plex... im sad Oops it also says "no items to redeem" when i try to do so. :(

Because coming to the forums instead of filing a petition and/or contacting customer support is the correct thing to do.

When you buy a PLEX it doesn't appear instantly in the redeeming system. You need to wait for an hour or so.

It's always in the last place you look.

Did you login to account management and re-deem it there ? failing that when you login with your toon click on the red bar at the bottom of the character selection screen, then click and drag it to your toon (doing this places the plex in your inventory in the station you are currently docked)

Hope that helps

You mean people stop looking once they find what they're looking for? NO WAY!!

Who put the goat in there?

Unless they've consumed some sort of psychotropic substance, in which case they can go on looking even once they find it.

When you by a PLEX the first time, you have to wait an hour. It'll show up! :)

Btw, this gets mentioned somewhere when you buy it

You need to wait that's all or fill a petition to get help. There is little more you can do about it.
