Re: battlepass coin refund if i pay for the ulitmate?

@snubsalot I wouldn't imagine that any BFC would be refunded if someone upgrades to Ultimate after buying Premium. I'm basing this on the EA EULA saying that EA Virtual Currency is non-refundable though. You might want to check with EA Help to see if they can give a confirmation.

That is the issue with premium currencies. They are generally not refundable and are at the sole discretion of the companies to give them way or not if they so desire.

I believe that they would be able to score some positive PR points if they awarded the difference in BFC to all who bought both ultimate and premium/fastpass. Since BFC is a virtual currency, it would not impact their profits unless they are concerned they will lose on future BFC sales (Though I believe that giving away more BFC is more likely to entice more players to get more involved with the ingame store).

But I would not hold my breath expecting that ideal scenario to happen

@UP_Hawxxeye I agree that this is the main problem with virtual currencies and I think they'd score some easy PR XP if they did refund the boins to people who upgrade later. It'd also take the sting out of paying a high price in real money for two skins, if someone decides to purchase after getting the premium pass.

I can see it happening either but I guess you never know.
