Actually, I too would like to raise a question about this.
I had XIV added to my Squeenix profile, using the 18 digit code. As of yesterday XIV is no longer on my profile, and the code is reading as invalid. I can't begin the download until XIV is back onto my profile, so what exactly am I to do?
My first thought is when I receive the 20 digit code, I can go to the Squeenix account management system and add the game that way. Is that the solution here?
