EA App refund

Hey everyone, i bought the sims medieval game for Mac (triple checked this) , but when i went to the EA App it says it only works on windows and doesn’t let me download it. I have a macbook air m2 so i thought it wouldn’t have any problem running. But apparently it doesn’t. The problem now is I went to the refund tool page because if the game is unplayable there is no reason for me to leave it as is— but when I reach the point of selecting the refund method it gets stuck and doesn’t go any further. I tried restarting my pc, sign out and in again, changing the reason for the refund but nothing works. Also i cannot reach ea through emails to request said refund so… what can I do? It’s my first time purchasing on EA App so I have no idea how it works

    I chose different topics, doesn't matter what i choose it gives me the option to either chat with them or email, in any case when i click on the bubble it just redirects me to the help.ea.com page without any pop up or anything :/ i honestly appreciate the help but i think i'll deem my 12euros as lost

    Can you please confirm what topic you are selecting? Sometimes, depending on the topic that you select when filling out the form, the chat option might not be available. Usually, choosing "Update EA account" gives you the chat as an option. If, after that, you still don't see the chat, please try creating a ticket while logged out.

    That chat option does not appear :( I have tried in all browsers with the least protection settings as possible including pop-up block/ad block but it just doesn't finish loading... The fact that I also cannot reach them through e-mail or anything is very frustrating, god why did I do this

    I'm sorry to hear that. If the chat option is appearing, perhaps we can try to troubleshoot the browser to see if the chat pop-up appears when you click on it. Are you using any ad or pop-up blockers? If yes, please try to temporarily disable them when using the EA Help website. Another alternative would be using a different web browser. Please try these steps and let me know how that goes.

    Hey thank you for your reply, I already did that but when I try to submit the form it  redirects me to the Help EA page, it also gives me the option to contact them through chat or email but both links are broken and it redirects me again to Help EA. Been trying to get a refund again today, but it's doing the same thing. It just gets stuck loading... Dear Lord.

    Hey there, I'm sorry to hear about your experience. If you're unable to get a refund directly through the website, you will need to contact EA Help. Please try going to this page, then scroll down to the bottom and select "Contact Us". From there you will be prompted to fill out a form and you should be given the contact options after that. Let me know if you have any questions.
