I’m posting this on the forum because I haven’t received any help from EA.

I am submitting a formal complaint regarding the mishandling of my account and the removal of two paid expansions without my consent. Advisor Sagar (Case #240108039) issued a refund I never requested for two fully working expansions, and I was never informed that I would lose access to them. This was an EA mistake, not my decision. After this error, Advisor Harish (Case #240037011) repeatedly refused to escalate my case to a higher-level supervisor or the EA Terms of Service team, even after I clearly requested escalation multiple times. She insisted that I must repurchase the expansions using “refunded credits,” even though I never asked for a refund, I was not informed of the removal, and I should not be required to pay again for content removed due to an EA error. She also tried to pressure me into buying the expansions again, even though they’re no longer on sale and I originally purchased them at the promotional price.”She repeatedly avoided answering direct questions, attempted to close the chat without resolving the issue, and refused to provide the official complaint contact when asked. This behavior prevented me from accessing the proper escalation procedure. Under UK consumer protection principles, a company cannot remove paid digital content without the customer’s consent and then require the customer to buy it again. The solution offered by support violates these standards. I am requesting immediate escalation to a higher-level supervisor or the EA Terms of Service team, restoration of my access to the two expansions, and installation codes sent to my email so I can secure my access in case this issue happens again.I also request that this complaint be formally logged and reviewed, including the actions of both advisors involved and the refusal to provide the official complaint channel. I expect written confirmation that this complaint has been received and escalated.

  • Good luck with this. Every single time I log in to the EA App to play a game, my library has been mostly removed from my account and I have to open a ticket to have my purchased items restored. They can temporarily fix it and it lasts maybe a day at most but I have to have it done every single time I want to continue my game. They refuse to escalate to a supervisor or manager. It's obviously an account level problem that they band-aid. I will be back her tomorrow, in EA Help, getting my game restored so I can relax after my day. Relax with an EA Help agent, not playing my games I own.

    Hey TajemniczaRose​, sorry to hear that you are frustrated.

    Our live support team evaluates each complaint to see if it meets the criteria for a formal complaint. If a complaint does not meet this criteria then the team will take your feedback but will not be able to escalate it further.

    We on the forums are not able to assist with issues like this due to the nature of account verification. It is not something that we can do here.

    What I can recommend is gathering all the info you have and speak with our live support team again to see what they can do to assist.
