Wow this is such a scam to get people to buys packs in the store... Everything that you get in the store for 20 30 $40 you can go into the sbcs and basically get for free but now EA is limiting that because they don't want you to do that. You need to go into the store and spend your real money in there on crap because all you get is duplicates anyways... I've been pulling the same 20 to 25 cards for the last month outside of the one or two new ones that they release every week that are available in these packs even though they say everything is available it really isn't.
- RadioShaqs2 years agoHero@Crazy-TrainZ28 I don’t think it’s to push you to the store as it wouldn’t make sense to ban people to do it. They could just limit sbcs or remove them if that was the end goal. Right now you can do them 24/7 if you just slow down.
But yeah if people can’t slow down I can see them removing sbcs. Then you will actually be forced into playing the game or the store. - Crazy-TrainZ282 years agoRising Novice@RadioShaqs It makes sense if you think about it. You are only band from the sbcs but you can still go into the store and buy the packs if you want to and do pretty much anything else in ultimate team. But you can't take your duplicates that you get from the store and turn them in to get more cards so other than other words EA is shutting you down from getting any free cards outside of the packs that you get for the daily play but yet you can't really open them because those are constant duplications that you'll be able to do nothing with. This entire game is focused around ultimate team and the billions of dollars it makes every year they're also focused around that FC pro crap. It shouldn't take 12 years to pull a messy or a Ronaldo or one of those guys out of these packs. In the whole reason why I am doing and most of us are doing so many spc's per day is to try to get those cards without buying from the store but EA is punishing us for that and it is complete * to get punished for playing a freaking game like we are children. Games used to be for kids but they're not anymore evidently EA hasn't recognized that it's players out here are mainly adults

@Crazy-TrainZ28But look at how mad it makes you and others that actually hurts the game not helps it. People will quit not keep playing. There would be much better ways to force you into the store than actually losing customers.
Also how would you stop the cheating without it?
- Crazy-TrainZ282 years agoRising Novice@RadioShaqs What cheating? How is doing SBC's cheating? It's an unlimited SBC so if you have the cards to do them then where's the cheating in that?
I need to go to another thread though and I'm not sure where you report 750,000+ coin being lost. I just logged in a saw that my coun i legitimately made off of the transfer market is gone and my balance is at 0. - EA_Aljo2 years ago

If your coin balance is suddenly 0, it's possible your account was actioned for violating the Terms of Service. If that happened, an email would have been received stating this. You're welcome to open a case with an advisor here. They will let you know if that's what happened or not.

The same has happened to me in the last hour. Just sat on my console, grinding the "unlimited" 84x10s, putting spare dupes into exchanges... suddenly kicked when I tried to submit an 88 dupe into an SBC, and can't do any more SBCs on the console.
Yes, it works on Web App. I shouldn't have to login to the web app to do SBCs though, the interface for e.g. finding some random 80s/81s to fill an 84 squad is sh*te. This is why so many people turn to rubbish like Paletools, as EA are both so inept they can't design their own app efficiently, and then punish players for playing fairly in game on a grind they created. I don't even know what "too many" or "too quickly completing" SBCs looks like - I open a pack, I go into the menu to put the dupes into an SBC. I don't know how that can be done too quickly for EA's liking... utter bull.
I've wasted too much time and money on this - I'll be cancelling my FC25 pre-order and never touching the company again. NickRTFM and Inception are totally right about the company that EA are.
