Can’t access transfers in ultimate team PS4

Dear EA Sports Support,

I am writing regarding an issue with Ultimate Team progression in EA Sports FC 26.

In order to unlock the Transfer Market, players are required to complete the Foundations objective group "Venturing Out." One of the mandatory tasks within this objective is to play three Rush matches.

However, Rush is an online mode that requires a PlayStation Plus subscription on PlayStation consoles. As a result, players who purchased the game but do not subscribe to PlayStation Plus are unable to complete this objective.

This effectively locks the Transfer Market — a core Ultimate Team feature — behind an additional paid subscription that is not part of the game purchase itself. Players who wish to play Ultimate Team offline (for example via Squad Battles) are therefore prevented from accessing a fundamental gameplay system.

This design feels unfair and inconsistent with previous FIFA/EA Sports FC titles where the Transfer Market was accessible without requiring a console subscription.

I respectfully request that EA consider one of the following:

• Remove Rush match requirements from the Foundations objectives required to unlock the Transfer Market  
• Provide an offline alternative objective for players without PlayStation Plus  
• Manually unlock the Transfer Market for accounts that cannot complete the Rush objectives

At present, this issue prevents me from fully using Ultimate Team despite owning the game.

As another work around AT MY COST, I’ve also just now paid for a months PLAYSTATION PLUS and I’m guessing because I am still on PS4 the have cannot find teammates. 

I’ve paid for a game I now cannot use its functionalities. 

I would appreciate your assistance in resolving this issue or escalating it to the development team.
