I ended up caving in and buying the elite licence. That fixed the problem. Consider me cynical but I think EA will be in no hurry to fix this if there is already a fix that requires users to spend money.

My suspicion is that the "flag" that indicates you have a license is incorrectly set. Buying the license probably resets it.
I feel sorry for those who already bought the license which is being wasted...

Not sure I want to pay money to fix a bug...

I agree, to many bugs in the game to spend money. I have saved tons of donuts but don't want to take the chance it will not fix anything. I contacted EA about this so will report back when/if they respond. Says up to 48 hours.
I agree. Getting ready to buy the elite license again to see if that will fix. Have made a complaint to EA and Itunes. Don't expect anything, just felt good to vent.

I'd try this as I've been saving up my donuts but, there are people that have the problem even with the elite license so I don't want to waste them to find out it does nothing.
I know, but it is showing up as available in my game, even though I bought it a few days ago. I hate to do it but I do don think I have a choice. I may give it 12 more hours.
I got an email as well when I submitted a ticket. Said it would take up to 48hours for someone to respond. It's been almost 60 hours now and still nothing. I think much like this site is deceptive to make you think someone is doing something, it's just a gimmick. I'm resigned to trying for at least 4200 snakes at this point.
finally gave up last week and bought the elite license again. It worked. I know some of you may not want to do this but it may be the only choice you have left.
Still no fix. No response to my ticket. Glad they can continue to release updates that don't work for everyone rather than fixing the bugs that already exist.
In case people haven't figured it out. EA doesn't pay attention to the forum let alone their own support system. I would not continue spending money on a broken unsupported game.
I'm having the same problem... Spent the donuts on the Wacking license, can't wack 1 snake let alone 10!!!! Unable to wack any snakes in neighbor Sprinfields!!!
Due to error, I can no longer whack snakes in friend's towns despite having the Expert Whacking License! This error has persisted for 4 days and I have lost the opportunity to whack 30 snakes per day for a total of 120 snakes to date. This is a crucial opportunity I'm missing due to the exclusivity and limits of this event. I'm hoping for a fix to this error as soon as possible and compensation for the missed opportunity would also be appreciated! Thanks for time and an excellent gaming experience to date.

Should we all just gang up on a new thread like we did for the XP issue? If there are enough of us that might work.
PLEASE FIX!!! ARE YOU SEEING THIS EA!!!
I'd rather have my current game fixed then continue adding to a broken game.

Not even sure what the update did other than add the homer being chased by snake opening screen. wow .
Good Luck
