15000 coins lost because EA disconnected before the game even started

Hi, I just started a online draft game for 15000 coins and even before the game ever started i got disconnected and lost the game. How do i get my game back? Very annoying and frustrating. I dont have that much time to play and now i wasted 15000 coins and 10 minutes of selecting the squad and going here.

  • Hello @Ouaine 

    If you haven't yet, be sure to check the automatic draft token tool here to see if you're able to get a replacement token.

    If you're being disconnected often, we can look into some troubleshooting to help with that as well. What platform do you play on?

    I'll have a look. I play on Xbox. I get disconnected sometimes but never this way, before i even saw if i had an opponent.. It was weird.

    " We checked and you don't qualify for a Draft Token.

    We created case #168953138 for future reference.

    Is there something else we can help you with? Our advisors can help you with troubleshooting, but they can’t grant Draft Tokens."  


  • I have checked to see if this profile is even linked to my xbox account and i am not sure if it is, and if so how i should make that happen? Can you help me with that? I'm sure the system should see that i had a disconnection before anything even started. I see no reason why someone would pay 15.000 coins just to disconnect a game prematurely, so i really dont get why i would nog be eligible for a refund.

    We wouldn't be able to manually grant a replacement token as we don't have that ability, but you can verify if your accounts are properly linked together by checking the Connections section on your EA account here. If you see your gamertag listed there, that means you're connected correctly. 

    If you'd like to do some troubleshooting to prevent this from happening again, please try the following steps:

    • Please run through the connection guide here as well as the steps from Xbox 
    • Change your DNS settings (You can use the public google DNS primary: 8.8.8.8, secondary: 8.8.4.4, unless there is a different DNS you would rather use) 
    • Try removing and re-adding your gamertag from your Xbox
    • Check that you have an open NAT type on your console 

    If these steps don't help, you can run the Connection Quality Report and attach the results to your post so we can investigate further.

    They are linked. I dont have time for all the technical stuff. I just want to play the game when i have a bit of time. I guess i just wont be spending anymore coins on draft games. And for that matter, this doesnt motivate me to ever spend any actual money on coins. Thank you for responding. I am disappointed in the company, but you did your best.
