Offer open to UK/EU residents only aged over 16. The key will be available and useable 4 March 2016 until 31 March 2016.

Edit: codes are being emailed, but some people are having problems. "Invalid taxcode reference key 5 for subsidiary 4". No solution as of yet

Edit2: Using tunnlebear worked for me. Up to you if you want to use a vpn.

Basically a 3 week trial of the game. Sounds like they are fishing for more sales lol.

Trial? Don't think so. It just says that you need to activate the game with that key before the end of March or it won't work anymore (as others already said).
At least that's how it usually works ;)

That's possible, but I guess they worded it rather ambiguously.

No, you entered with 3 different emails, to re-sell them. That should be a problem.

I usually do the same :) When Steam put L4D2 for free, I created like 4 accounts and added the game to them. Those accounts belong to my friends now xP

This is amazing!

"The key will be available and useable 4 March 2016 until 31 March 2016."

I think that's just the expiration of the key, if you redeem it between that period, it will be forever in your library!

Steam Keys generally NEVER ever expire....

No, some keys can be expired, Gearcrak Arena keys expired after removal from steam store, and can't be sure for 100%, but i think that some of HB giveaway keys are expired too.

Even Humble Bundle Keys expiring? Wow thats bullshit from them.

Humble Keys given away for free during special promotions have expiration dates. Purchased ones do not.

Likewise, other keys with expiration dates on their activation dates are from free promotions.

This is done intentionally to try and at least someone lessen the number of people exploiting and stockpiling a ton of free keys and trying to resell them.

Don't blame the people giving us free games, blame the people fucking it up for the rest of us. :/

Gearcrack is a weird special case where, as I recall, the game became unplayable after they removed support for it, so keys for it weren't able to be activated anymore as well.

How long a key last is up to the publisher they can set time limits on it.I How it is done i am not sure i would think they contact Steam and say if anyone tries to active said keys after set date,they would not work.

You know these keys are region restricted right? So even if you get your key in NA or whatever you can only gift them.

I mean the site may be legit , but it doesnt seem like they got any IP protection .
You can literally keep requesting keys and you get the same msg , which is kinda....weird .

You should say take the time to read...

Telling someone to learn to read who types out a clear question means they can read,but failed to read everything...

Also he was asking if they will send it,not when they will,so it seems you failed to read the final part of of his post.So in the end you "failed to read"

So maybe you need to "learn to read"

it was an idiotic question, how the hell should we know if they will send it? or are you an esper and can read people's mind through the internet? learn to think.

i think you just take stuff to serious...

Stupid question or not,what you poked fun at had nothing to do with what they asked may or may have not asked...

Also they where asking if they will send the key maybe they have never dealt with these people before so they where curious if they will most likely send a key

Then they clearly post about the 7 day wait,so they know it will take 7 days to send

but you replied with

We'll send you the steam key within 7 days.

learn to read.

Yet that had nothing to do with what they may or may not have even asked???

All they said was

Will they send it?!!

Maybe it was a rhetorical question?And you tell me to think?

In the end i have never had issues with them sending keys but i am still curious as if i will get this,as the way they did this one,is a bit different then how they usually do it,and no confirm e-mail that i may or may not be getting one.

The UK's continued usage of Pounds instead of Euros may have something to do with the separation, though that idea is out the window if Denmark is also listed.

Edit: My belief that the UK's use of the Pound didn't tie the country directly in to the EU's economics appears to have been false, so I've edited the phrasing to be more precise.

So the UK, which isn't part of the EU, according to you, will hold a referendum later this year whether to leave it or not? Makes sense! :P

The UK is not part of the Eurozone (except for Ireland), which uses the Euro as its official currency. It is (still) very much part of the EU!
