Getting 350 crystals without having made the mistake in the first place but claiming you did is definitely both lying and cheating.

Lying? Yeah. Fraud? Sure. Cheating? Eh. He got something for nothing, same as the people that got shards and a refund.

Taking advantage of the system by deceit is cheating and a reason why developers won’t be as generous next time because people will go around bragging how they abused the system

And this is exactly what I meant when I said I'm afraid people get greedy and try to abuse the system... Thanks for being so open about it, I have flagged and reported your comment.

Or he's lying.

Why would someone lie about cheating the system?

How is this cheating ?

True but we are talking about what Nauros did

That's what Nauros did. Read post again.

Well we have a very different understanding of the situation.

What is your understanding of "it didn't happen to me but I tried to get a free chromium from support anyway and they ended up giving me 350 crystals"?

The very first sentence of the post says "For those who didn't open one on accident:"

A few thoughts.

First, when you opened the store after the update the big red dot on your free bronzium should be enough. If you don't pay attention that's on you. It was nice of them to refund it but I personally don't think they should reward lack of paying attention.

2nd, great qol update. Having it easy to get to is great and even if I had accidentally bought a chromium, which I didn't, it would be worth 350 crystals to have this update.

3rd, it's 350 crystals. That is insignificant. If you accidentally spent that then you should just move on and be more careful. If you didn't and others are getting a free chromium for being careless, I know it's annoying they are rewarding carelessness but still insignificant so either way move on.

Feel free to send me 350 crystals since they are "insignificant". :)

1) not cheating
2) people don't need a reason (good or bad) to lie.

Here's what I got back:

Greetings,

Thanks again for contacting the EA Help Team in relation to SWGOH.

I won't be compensating you for this issue as I can see that you redeemed the Free pack from the new position many hours before you might have made a purchase of the chromium data cards, which you did not.

I'm glad I managed to provide you with the right information today (if slightly disappointing) , in relation to all of the information as discussed above and I hope that I can get your next inquiry sorted with no restrains (technical or otherwise) the next time that I hear from you.

Kindest regards,

Which is not correct

@CG_SBCrumb how can they get it so wrong?

I accidental purchased the 350 gem character pack at 3am CST immediately after the update and contacted support to request the advertised refund only to be declined because support does not agree it was within the indicated timeframe, that is bogus. I made the purchase after the update and on accident due to the button change. Does support not realize what timeframe the update was implemented? I'm very disappointed and maybe will try again tomorrow but it's a bear spending all the time time in chat with support.

Honesty cg should have never taken so long to implement this. This change probably took 5 secs. With that said they never should have given an option to refund accidental purchases and if they were gonna implement it it should have been automatic and no one should have needed to contact support i guess they are just either being lazy or want people to determine its not worth it and don't call in about it.

Now people are stuck in limbo on what exactly qualifies. Support says one thing player says another it just adds to player frustration for no reason. The fact is some players will try to take advantage of it. So why cg just couldn't Data mine those affected and issue in game refunds ill never know to many moving parts this way.
