Luke Bundle Replacing Bronzium Data Card - anyone accidentally spent money?

Feels a little slimey from CG to move the order of the Bronzium Data Card as if trying to get people to accidentally buy the Luke bundle. Anyone noticed this? Or is it just a bug on my account 🤣

  • Noticed it & still accidently hit it this morning!!

    Trying to submit for refund now.

    Even after the first click and my brain said, wait, this doesn't look right my thumb set down on the thumb pad where it always lays & triggered the confirmation before I could X-out on the screen.   Grrrr.

     

    Talk about a move that is scummy & will just result in a bunch of refund make work requests & if they aren't completed, lost business clients.

    After re logging I see what you guys are talking about. That is so obvious it was intentional and a way to milk the player base even more. Just disgusting 

     

    Anybody that falls for it will probably never see a refund going by how they owe me crystals and how the technical forum is full of people getting ripped off on other things and ea never doing anything about it

    I wonder if that's why the purchases you made in the episode shipment didn't refresh. They refreshed every other time. Now I either have to wait or spend money on crystals to buy from the feature and weekly shipments

    Almost happened to me, I clicked it and everything. Luckily, I’ve never set up a payment method and was saved.

    Oh no! Sorry to hear this - the number of times I’ve almost done it just from habit. Hopefully one of them will see this realize it’s a **bleep** thing to do and make the change back ASAP! Hope you get your refund 

  • Yeah I automatically hit the first screen but thankfully not the buy button. The next time I went there, it had changed back to the second spot. Then the next 2 times it was back in first spot and I hit it again both times! Yep clearly a  @#$& move to trick people. Disgusting!

    It’s switched between first and second slots multiple times for me. It’s either malicious or incompetence and there’s no third option at this point. 

  • It is very hard to accidentally purchase something with cash. (It is much easier with crystals.)

    Because of how hard it is, I don't think they're counting on accidental purchases to make money. I just think that it's annoying to every player's muscle memory and that annoying the dedicated players of your game is a really bad long term strategy. 

    They can do it, sure. And I don't think anyone will have actual money taken from them against their will. But... why do it when it can only give you bad PR?
