I am currently engaging in a live chat with someone at EA named John to see what I can find out. He did say that "We have received lots of contacts on this issue and players are reporting the same.I have discussed this with the experts team and would like to inform you that this could be an emerging issue to us and we have already informed the dedicated team about this issue and they are already working on it.
