Sims coins

Just tried to purchase sims coins, refused my card, due to lack of fundS, apparently!! Money was there but card was not accepted. When I looked on my internet banking the two attempts I made to purchase them showed two sperate debits for £1 each to EA games!!! Why take that yet not the £3 for the 500 simoleons I was trying to buy?!!

    sorry about that...we're player shere trying to help each other if you wish to contact CS to assist with account/purchase isses try these steps

    the $ charge is  cards carrying the visa and mastercard logo all require retailers to institute the $1- $1.20 or so in some cases hold process and most also include debit cards. the charge is a preauthorization that provides a way for your credit card company to verify the card is valid before allowing you to use it when the amount of the full charge is not yet certain the $ charges are refunded tbh i have no idea how many business days that could be  7-10 days
