NBA 2K19 Tips: How to Fix VC Not Working / VC Not Showing Up / Unable to Purchase

2K is aware of an issue in NBA 2K19 of some players not seeing VC in their account or are unable to purchase VC from the in-game store.

The first thing you should try is clearing your console’s cache.  If that doesn’t fix it, you should file a ticket with 2K Support.  Read below on how to do that:

HOW TO FILE A TICKET WITH 2K SUPPORT:

Before you file a ticket, please be aware that (during periods of high online traffic) it can take a few hours before the VC you purchased is credited to your account.

If you have waited for a few hours and still haven’t received any VC, we’re happy to look into the issue.

NOTE: Please be aware that we may escalate your request to Nintendo/Sony/Microsoft/Steam for an audit of your missing transaction(s).

The first thing to do is go ahead and file a support ticket. Please be sure to provide us with the following information when you fill in the “Description” field about what’s going on.

  • Gamertag/PSN ID/Steam ID/Nintendo ID:
  • Region:
    • This could include your continent or country.
  • Email address:
  • Amount Missing:
  • Receipt and Copy of Transaction History (Must be a photo or a screen shot):
    • The receipt could be the email sent to you when confirming the purchase.
    • With the transaction history, please ensure this contains either your username, email or ticket number for our viewing.
    • We need both the receipt and a copy of your account’s transaction history.

CLEARING YOUR CONSOLE’S CACHE:

  1. Open “System Settings” in the HOME menu.
  2. Then select “System”, choose “formatting options” and then select “Reset Cache.”
  3. Select the user you’d like to clear the cache for, then follow the on-screen instructions.

PLAYSTATION 3

When you play a game for the first time on the Playstation 3 it will automatically install any necessary game data into a system folder called the “Game Data Utility.” This folder is also the location for any patches or updates your games may receive.

  2. Scroll through this section until you find a folder called “Game Data Utility”

NOTE: If the data you deleted was a game patch, you will only be prompted to re-download the information again the next time your console is connected to the internet. Choosing not to re-download patch data may affect your associated game experience as any bug fixes installed with the patch will no longer be in place.
