Today, October 10, I discovered that I can no longer access EA services (in my case, on PS5, the game FC 25). After doing a quick research, I realized I’m not the only one with this issue. Several of my friends are facing the same problem. We all have different internet providers. However, when I use mobile internet or a VPN, the problem disappears.
Dear EA, the hero city of Zaporizhzhia is NOT under Russian occupation, and it NEVER has been. Please, be so kind as to restore the ability for residents of Zaporizhzhia to continue using your products. The situation is truly outrageous — it turns out we’re suffering restrictions and consequences along with, and instead of, those who are killing us with rockets every day?
I'm from Zaporizhzhia and I'm having trouble logging into my EA account on PC. My city isn't occupied. And it never was. The front line in my area hasn't changed for a long time. I support your sanctions against aggressor countries. I bought Octane Edition a long time ago and donated to your Battle Pass in Apex. Just yesterday, I was playing without any problems and got a relic, but today they've already considered me Russian... they've decided I live in occupied territory. I've suffered from war every day for four years, and now I'm under sanctions against the country that attacked us.
I looked at the forum and realized I'm not the only one facing this problem in my city.
The exact same thing is happening with the ZOOM online learning program; it also considered us to be Russian territory, and for a year now I haven't been able to study peacefully at school. PLEASE, don't be like them; don't be indifferent. Please convey my appeal to those who forced you to impose sanctions on me and my fellow countrymen.
