EA Pogo Canasta program glich or Unethical Player with Cheat Program?

at approx. 8:40 AM (EST) Wednesday 4/27/22, I was playing Ranked Canasta.  Once my score exceeded my opponent my screen showing a blank screen with a box that said "Still connected to the internet?" click "yes" or "quit / restart".  Of course I thought this was weird, but clicked yes, went back to game, for one move, only for this message to pop back up, same response then same reponse, I click yes still connected, it goes away, game moves one turn, and it pops us again.  Only now my opponent has all four red 3's and it happens again.  Suddenly my screen boots me out of Pogo.  I try to get back in and all sorts of trouble loading.  I ended up having to 'restart' my entire computer.  Then old data tabs loaded.  Please let me know if this is a EA POGO technical issue or and Unethical Player using a cheat program as soon as the opponent scores a few more points.  

Second, now that I have your attention. Can you make two Canasta options on the ranked page?  One with the normal time limit you have of approx 1 minute 15 secnds or such, and another option for FAST players who move within 35-45 seconds?  It's not fun playing the people who wait out the time clock to the last 10 seconds before making a move.  I get people are learning, or taking time to write everything down to strategically make a move with the remaining 6 or 7 cards in their hand, but for those who wish to keep the game moving, could there be a FAST playing option so the computer links those players together?  Thanks for reading and responding.  Kind Regards,

    That is what I thought. It has to be rigged I am always not getting wild cards. Do not have a chance to win this way. I am also a great canasta player for the real world and not a rigged winning world. I am so dam mad.  You know EA games can make a program to stop these cheating hacks. So, do it!!!! This not fair for the non cheating players.  I always have a decent games with bots at least they don't cheat or do they lol. But if there is contests or game rewards we do not have a chance to win to achieve our goal.

    Hi folks, 

    This thread was originally created 5 years ago, and has long since been inactive, so I will be closing it down to limit necroposting.

    For future readers, if you suspect another player of cheating in Pogo please follow the steps in this guide to report them:
