Missing Coins after a Failed Bid. Nhl 17 HUT

Product: NHL 17
Platform:Microsoft XBOX One
Summarize your bug: Got into a Bidding war for a player after bidding back and forth the bid was a price i didnt want to pay so i didnt bid the auction ended and when i backed out to the main HUT screen i was given the money back for only 1 of my last 2 bids and shorted about 23.9k not much i know but to make that money by playing the game it would have taken about about 20 games at 25 mins a game so 8.71 hours to get that coin back so i contacted EA and was told to wait 24 hours for the "Servers to Sync" and my money would be returned so i did and no money was returned so i contacted EA again this time i was told that i needed a specialist and to message them back in 6 hours so i wait more only to be told that they will investigate it and when asked for a time frame i was told i cant have one because she doesnt know what the investigaters will discover...
How often does the bug occur?: Rarely (0% - 9%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves?: I dont know... get in a bidding war with someone and wait till it happens. iv had about 50 bidding wars and its only happend once.
What happens when the bug occurs?: you loose coins it takes u hours and hours to get..... coins that ea charges real money for....
What do you expect to see?: less money then u had in HUT

i dont have a before picture.
