Hi Job,
1) I can't really answer questions about pricing in the EU, UK, etc. I've been told that you'll have to talk to Adobe Customer Service Center in your region: http://www.adobe.com/support
2) This offer does not apply to upgrades from other CS suites, but the promo code brings the full purchase price below the normal upgrade price for Production Premium.
Hope that helps.
Thanks,
