it is July 24th, 2025 approx. 18:01 hrs....im literally still having the same issue....ive chatted with apple customer service, to which of course they were no help, as they blamed my bank/card for some reason...ive literally made numerous purchases --no issue before...now this. Im sure its the app at this point....BECAUSE ive reached out to my bank and they dont even see anything pending in any kind of way from the app...but when i made purchases before, the money came out instantly(my account) and i got the merchandise...EA can not get on here and say its the bank--i can confirm it is NOT!
