Didn’t receive free game code

I got my son a meta quest 3s for Christmas and we never received free code for saints and sinners game once activated . When i try to contact support it keeps saying support isn't available for this device. We have already thrown out the box so unable to get serial number. The serial numbers on my receipt and headset ain't working either. Whole situation is frustrating. Any help is greatly appreciated i just want him to be able to get his free download.

    It is extremely unfortunate Stephensx6 Meta should make it clear in big capital letters that you need the serial number on the box. I was lucky that my wife decided to keep the box after I put it out for recycling. Now I have it. Just snipped it off the box and keep it in my Quest case. I think many people are finding themselves in the same situation. As well as the box, the serial number of the full set should be printed on documentation people normally hold onto, like a warranty card.

    Stephensx6 I just found this.. The options for the headset and controllers don't work, but the other methods below that could solve the problem. Good luck and Happy New Year. 

    Locating the Serial Number for Meta Quest 3 Without the Box

    If you no longer have the original packaging for your Meta Quest 3, there are still several ways to find the serial number.

    Check the Headset

    • Inside the Headset Strap: The serial number is printed on a label located inside the left side strap of the headset. To find it, gently hold the left arm of the headset and tilt it upward to view the label.

    Inspect the Controllers

    • Controller Serial Numbers: Each controller has its own serial number. To find it, remove the battery cover of the controller. The serial number label is located just below the battery compartment.

    Use the Meta Horizon App

    • Mobile App Access: Open the Meta Horizon app on your smartphone. Tap your avatar icon, select the “Menu” icon, go to “Devices,” and choose your headset. The serial number will be displayed in the headset information.

    Online Account

    • Meta Website: Log into your account on the official Meta website. Navigate to the “My Devices” section, select your Meta Quest 3, and you will find the serial number listed there.

    These methods will help you retrieve the serial number even if the original box is no longer available.
