Re: Disconnection At The End Of The Rivals Games

I am repeatedly being disconnected from EA SPORTS FC 27 Ultimate Team during Division Rivals matches on PC. The game shows “Unable to connect to the EA servers” or “Connecting to Football Ultimate Team is not possible at the moment.”  
These disconnects are being counted as DNF results and have significantly reduced my Match Coins multiplier.  
My EA Connection Quality Report for the affected match shows a score of 95/100 (Great), 31.22 ms ping, 1.32 ms jitter, and only 0.01% packet loss. My local Wi-Fi connection also did not disconnect at the time of the issue.  
The affected match ended on September 29, 2026 at approximately 2:21 AM Oman time.  
Please investigate these EA server/session disconnects. I would also like my incorrect DNF penalties and Match Coins modifier to be reviewed and restored if possible.

    Thank you! Could you also let me know the approximate date and time of the disconnect, including your time zone? This will help the team pull the relevant logs more effectively.

    Last tested: 30 September 2026 at approximately 23:15 UK time. Also attempted on 30th September 12:15-12:30 numerous times.
    I've tried so many times and it just feels like a waste of time so I'm going to go as detailed as possible to give you the best clue as to what is going on. I've tried getting a Connection Report too but since my account is too recent it doesn't show the last 7 days, but my connection and ISP is stable. No troubleshooting guide including using AI has helped, and I can't connect to a real EA Advisor to actually help me.

    I am consistently unable to play FC 27 online matches.

    Squad Battles works normally, but online modes such as Division Rivals, Rush and Online Seasons repeatedly disconnect at the beginning of the match.

    The behaviour is inconsistent in exactly where it disconnects:

    • Sometimes I get "Arsenal (club I chose at the start) v Arsenal" and no opponent information appears. If I continue/press X, I am immediately disconnected.
    • Other times the opponent loads correctly. For example, I can see their team, club, name and lineup, but immediately before kickoff I receive "You lost connection to your opponent. We will see the match report to see who lost and won."
    • There are no FC connection-monitoring warning icons when this happens.
    • The game can also take unusually long to load into the online match.

    Troubleshooting already attempted

    • Restarted PC
    • Restarted BT router
    • Enabled UPnP
    • Forwarded EA/FC ports:
      • UDP 3659
      • UDP 9000–9999
      • TCP 3569
    • Removed duplicate port-forwarding rule
    • Tested with Windows Firewall temporarily disabled
    • Verified FC 27 game files through Steam
    • Cleared EA App cache
    • Reinstalled EA Javelin AntiCheat
    • Confirmed Windows proxy is disabled
    • No VPN
    • ReWASD and Daemon Tools are not installed
    • Tested on my normal BT Wi-Fi
    • Tested using a completely separate mobile-phone hotspot and experienced the exact same problem
    • Ping to my router is stable
    • Ping to 1.1.1.1 is also stable with no packet loss/timeouts

  • I was just winning an important rival game where i was beating my opponent 6-1 suddenly i got disconnect message from ea whereas my internet was working just fine.  This is outrageous and i am being punished for something which is not my fault.

    Same issue here on PS5 (FC 27, Ultimate Team, in Rivals, Rush and Team Clash). At the end of every match I get disconnected with the error (game in French) "Les serveurs EA ne peuvent traiter votre demande. Veuillez réessayer ultérieurement" ("EA servers cannot process your request, please try again later"). The match is then counted as an abandonment/loss: I lose credits, my objectives no longer progress, and I get a penalty for the following matches. I can no longer play.

    Timeline: it started after I contacted EA Support about another bug. On the objective "Menace sur les ailes" (score 1 goal with a left midfielder in 3 different matches) I got, at the end of each match, the message "Nous avons ajusté votre progression d'objectif en raison d'une incohérence avec la validation du serveur" and the objective was reset. After contacting support about that, the disconnect bug appeared. Support told me they cannot change results or restore points.

    Is anyone else seeing this? Please investigate and escalate to the technical team.
