help GTA V key invalid

Slam62 · 9 Apr 2015 at 20:12

Hello

Purchased a GTA key, it came with a graphics card from a legit place.

Anyway I enter the key and steam says invalid key.

I have raised a steam support ticket and contacted the vendors.

I just wondered if anyone has any ideas.

I didn't post in the GTA thread as I thought it might get lost in there amongst the happy people preloading .

The card says download steam etc

I'm embarrassed to say it came from the purple shirts.

Its 15 characters with no hyphens, is that how it should be entered?

Some purple shirt has possibly copied your code then

Yes but I had to scratch of the surface to reveal the code

Thanks for Tue replies guys,

Received the card by post and yes it has a magnetic strip, I'm going to a store today to see what they say.

Its a card, the instructions say use steam etc

Lots of tiny writing on the 'packaging' which is a strip of cardboard.
I'm sure it will be OK eventually.

No, got a new code from the store, new one doesn't work either so going to try tomorrow then take it from there.

I have read on another site that it isn't supposed to work until tomorrow.

Graphics card is brilliant mind.

Yeah tried hyphens, chap on the forum (hotukdeals) also couldn't activate it and quoted 14th for activation.

The know how man proudly told an old dear that the store can at times use more electricity than the whole of Swindon.
