Premium pass does not transfer between platforms

I have the same progress on both systems. But on where the standard is, there is all shown as logged. And there is no icon like premium pass is active.

To unlock, i must get one step on the platform with ultimate.

I don't understand why Dice / EA didn't activate the year 1 pass for both systems. 

Sorry for my bad english.

And there is only one answer to that question:    $

Hi @EA_Leeuw ,

I have the ultimate edition on my XB Series X. When I play on the xbox, where I have the premium battle pass, any progression I make is also noted on my PC version of the game (standard and no battle pass purchased).

Also, any progress made on my PC version of the game, is carried over to the xbox however, I need to rank up at least once on the xbox for it to give me the unlocks associated with the premium tier of the battle pass that I should have gained while playing PC

Once I receive the unlocks via the xbox, I am able to use on the PC. 

@Lancelot_du_Lac @SirFragALOT75, many thanks for the detailed description & provided images!

I was just told by EA support that Premium passes will not carry over different consoles. I was a bit surprised since I can cross progress between the different consoles. Originally I had pre-ordered gold edition of the game for around $100 for my playstation 4. I then bought another standard edition for the game for my new PC since i'd be able to have that cross progression. Once the battlepass came out I was surprised to see that I could only unlock the premium items on PS4 and not on PC. I went to EA support and they said their hands are tied and things are working as expected. Crazy how they can expect up to shell out $200 for a game with lackluster content and a dwindling player base. EA support also mentioned that this might only be for pre-orders and not for regular battlepass purchases. To be honest i'm still very confused, especially if that were the case. I mean why punish those who pre-ordered the game? 

@mccawwww Not sure if you are asking me or EA? I agree, it is a huge hassle. I expect this is unintended but who knows, they may very well knew this was the case and just want more of our hard earned $$. I hope they make this right and give us access across all platforms but I don’t have my hopes up. I will say that if this was intentional then I’ll be happy to step away from all things EA. After all, Battlefield is the only EA title I care about and while the new update is good, they still have a long way to go to earn my trust back.

That and I could have sworn that pre-release or soon after someone from EA/DICE specified this will support cross-commerce and progression. Am I mistaken/remembering incorrectly? (not saying you are with EA, but replying to your point, for clarity)
