Transfer Market Limit Reached - Bug

Hi all,

After spending hours grinding the objectives to unlock the transfer market on my new account, I have unlocked the transfer market only to receive a 24 hour market 'block', claiming I have reached my limit on bid/buy actions. This is impossible as I have had zero access to the market until I completed nearly 10 hours of objectives.

This is absurd - I spent money on packs, which is not enough proof that my account is real I suppose. Now that I unlock the market, I have a 24 hour block? I will miss out on buying my players early due to this. Unacceptable, please advise.

    I agree that this is completely unacceptable. I've almost completed the Carney Chukwuemeka SBC and I realized the last thing I need to do is to submit a Dortmund player, which I don’t have. So I tried to go to transfer market and then it said I need to complete 3 objectives first in order to unlock transfer market (that in itself is already ridiculous but anyway), one of them being having to play 3 Rush matches. So I went and bought 1 month of PS Plus (i wasn't planning on subscribing to PS Plus just yet) so I can play Rush matches since it’s an online game mode, just so I can complete this objective and unlock transfer market. So I finally unlocked transfer market and it gave me that message that I have to wait 24 hours. And the problem is, that particular SBC that I’m almost complete expires in 13 hours. Absolutely ridiculous.

    It's not a bug unfortunately, but a new thing EA implemented called "gradually earning access to the transfermarket" for new players. This is to counter bot/hacker accounts. So after 24 hours, you should have access. However, this is where actual bugs come in. I have completed all objectives 5 days ago already, and I can buy players. But I cannot list them on the transfer market. Reported this multiple times but no response. Talked to someone through the EA chat and they said that they cannot fix it manually and that I just have to keep waiting. Joke of a company.
