    There was an issue a little while back that caused the prompt screen to not show up.  Below is a workaround that worked for people at the time, see if it still works.

    1.  Sign out of your PSN ID and sign in as Guest
    2.  Start Battlefield 4 and go to main menu
    3.  Hit the PS Button to go to the dashboard and sign into your PSN Account
    4.  Go back into Battlefield 4 (It may say to reconnect controller)
    5.  Hit the PS Button > Dashboard, go to the Guest account and Sign Out
    6.  Re-open Battlefield 4 and choose your soldier
    7.  If it gets stuck on loading for a min or two, Close the Application and then open Battlefield 4 back up
    8.  You should now see the prompt

    I did see one other possible workaround as well:

    1.  Close the BF4 application on your PS4

    2.  Log into your Battlelog profile

    3.  Hover over your name in the top-right corner and click "Change Soldier"

    4.  Under the far left column labeled "Active", hit the one next to your PS4 soldier so it turns green

    5.  Hit "Save"

    6.  Start BF4 back up on your PS4

    7.  You might now see the prompt

    Post back and let me know which of the two (if any) worked for you.

    DISCLAIMER:

    Be aware, if you logged in and played even once, neither of the two options will work at all.

    I just did the method where you activate your ps4 character, sign out of bf, and then back in, and it worked. My account transferred over, the kicker was I started a game before the transfer happened. Everything still worked fine.

    Glad I was able to help you out.  And thanks for quoting me.  Quite a few random users will post solutions and claim it as their own.

    Kind of strange that @ScairEvacMedic played and it still worked.  Once progress is made, it is supposed to wipe out all transfer data.
