Unable to login with Google Play Account

This is happening to me too. It was fine at 12:00 BST because I logged in to get my extra energy. When I tried again at 18:00 BST I get the above issue. I've done exactly the same troubleshooting steps outlined above, and I've tried it on my phone and tablet. Same issue.

same issue here, only seems to affect mobile, PC worked. I've cleared cache and data, and reinstalled the app, the error message persists

Same issue here, I wasn't able to login to get my extra energy.  Cleared cache and data, restarted phone.  Issue is still persisting.

Edit: still unable to login 8 hours later

Same issue here. PC ok, Android - cannot login loop.

Same issue for me. Possibly connected to the latest android update?

Same issue here

Same here bug is still there

Yeah I am having the same problem and it is happening on both my phone and my tablet.

Still unable to log in with same issue. 

I even took my phone to T-Mobile and the guy pointed out that there was an Android update. I updated, deleted the game, restarted, reinstalled, etc in various orders. 

No luck.

if your google account is linked to your ea account, try sign in as guest, then connect with the EA account, that worked for me.
