It appears that players who try to transfer their account from the previous-gen version of Grand Theft Auto V to the current-gen version are having some issues.
After there were reports of players being unable to migrate their progress between generations, Rockstar’s support site released the following response and a subsequent update assure fans that a patch to fix the problem is on its way.
Question: I haven’t played GTA Online since 2013. When I try to transfer to PS4 or Xbox One, it says “No previous Grand theft Auto Online data is associated with your Social Club account.” I then tried to go back and play GTA Online on PS3 or Xbox 360 to verify, but it says the Rockstar services are unavailable. Help!
