Re: Squad Arena refresh taking 4 times the Kyber before refreshing on 4th try

Hi there,

If I understood your post correctly, you tried to refresh the Squad Arena timer and it didn't go through on the first try, so you tried 3 more times until it went through right?

This can occur when the network connection is weak or unstable, so what you can try to avoid such an issue in the future is to make sure your network connection is stable and strong, as well as reinstalling the game and making sure you don't have any other apps running in the background (as this is slowing your device performance and can cause lag in game). A good practice is also to fully close the game and not leave it in the background when you are done playing.

Further troubleshooting steps can be found here: https://help.ea.com/en-us/help/mobile/troubleshooting-steps-for-ios-apps/

In regards to the Crystal refund, I'm afraid we don't handle it here on the forum. It is handled by our Customer Support team.

Hope this helps, thank you.

    The customer support team sent me here...

    I work in tech support in streaming media...

    I will run any network test you want and probably a few you don't even know about

    Your infrastructure is more likely the cause as this looks like your API servers unable to handle the load during US afternoon hours

    Do I have to go to Apple to get reimbursed...

    On Tursday I will if no action is taken

    This is still a bug if your system is not checking against repeat API calls like this that happen within 2 minutes considering what the call is for


    Your answer to push this off on my network does not excuse the lack of proper error handling on your code

    Hey,

    The EA guys don't tend to work weekends, and you are obviously annoyed, but spamming this thread probably won't get you an answer before Monday.

    Best bet is to get back in touch with customer support, and say that you have been advised by the bugs forum that you should approach them for a crystal refund.

    Additionally, if you hit the refresh, and you know you paid the crystals, try backing out of that window and returning. If that doesn't work, force-closing the app and restarting (causing it to reload everything) might cause the purchased refreshes to show.

    But Customer Support is the place to go for lost crystal refunds. As ChristophIV said, perhaps tell them the AnswersHQ forum referred you to them.
