Mass False Bans for “Balance Transfer” on PC
Throwback to 24.12.25, when EA’s automated detection system flagged thousands of PlayStation accounts for “balance transfer.” After 8–10 hours, they fixed the issue and unbanned everyone with a single click. Everyone thought the problem was resolved, the Wildcards promo continued, and the money kept flowing. Now, three weeks later, guess what’s happening on PC? Exactly the same thing that happened on Christmas Eve. Multiple accounts in my community have been banned over the span of just two days. Casual players, traders — you name it. I even tested the issue myself by hopping onto unused accounts, trading a few cards, and playing a couple of Rivals games. And guess what? After about 10 hours of normal gameplay, I got banned for literally no reason. We didn’t sell coins. Most of us didn’t use any external web app add-ons or bots. Just regular Weekend League gameplay with some trading on the side to improve our teams — literally using the in-game market as intended. My friends and I did some research to figure out what might have caused this. We reviewed the cards we bought and sold, as well as our profits and losses. Across all 14 accounts, there was exactly one common card purchased on every single account: Ibanez Winter Wildcard. The point of this post is to make this issue public and hopefully get it noticed by someone at EA. Many people have lost their time, money, and nerves. EA Help’s policy is based almost entirely on automated responses, so when you try to appeal a ban, you’re stuck resending the same message only to get rejected by a bot 24 hours later. It’s incredibly frustrating. I've already made a post on Reddit and X both got quite a big attention, but still no action by EA. So please, if you’re in the same situation, upvote this post. Feel free to comment about your experience with EA Help, and if you managed to get unbanned, let us know how you did it. Fellow EA FC 26 players — cheers.10KViews44likes246CommentsCheaters still ruin the game for PC
I quit the game last year after I was getting kicked off from every other game. Now that FC27 is being released, I decided to check out if cheaters have been banned or dealt with. What do you know, my 2nd draft match and I am kicked after the kick off and I lose the draft. Shame on you EA to even market FC27 when you cant give us a playable game. I have been consistently buying Fifa and FC games for many years. FC26 was a waste of money, and FC27 wont happen for me.88Views2likes1CommentiOS Companion app not saving squad
I am using the latest version of the iOS FC26 Companion app (26.3.0). Just recently when I make changes to my squad through the companion app (in the starting squad AND the bench) and then close the app and re-open it, my changes don’t save. It just restores to the last version before the edits. Tried creating a copy of the existing squad and got an error (An error occurred and your Squad was not saved. Please try again later.). Tried creating a whole new squad with the changes I wanted, and when I try to set it as my primary squad it still shows the same error. And when I close and re-open the app, that new squad becomes empty. I attached a screenshot of the first time I got the error in the app.247Views1like2CommentsMy FC 26 Transfer Market Ban – Request for Manual Review
I’m posting because I’m looking for guidance regarding a Transfer Market ban on my EA SPORTS FC 26 account. My account was flagged for alleged coin distribution, and I lost access to the Transfer Market. I have appealed multiple times, but the penalty has remained in place. I want to clearly state that I have never bought, sold, or transferred coins. I also do not use any third-party software, websites, apps, bots, or auto-buyers for trading. All of my Transfer Market activity is done manually through my PS5 using the official FC 26 game interface. My trading consists of manually sniping and flipping players. I purchase players listed below market value and relist them at an appropriate market price. I was trading frequently because I was saving coins to purchase a 99-rated player and work towards building a 99-rated team. I understand that EA has systems designed to protect the game from coin distribution and other violations. However, I genuinely believe my legitimate Transfer Market activity may have been incorrectly interpreted. I am respectfully asking EA to have a human member of the appropriate Terms of Service team personally examine my Transfer Market transaction history and coin history. I believe a review of the actual transactions will show that my coins were earned through legitimate in-game trading. I have also submitted a privacy/data request asking for information relating to my Transfer Market activity, the penalty, previous appeals, and the data used in connection with the enforcement action. I would genuinely prefer to resolve this directly with EA. However, if I cannot obtain a meaningful review of the evidence behind the penalty, I intend to file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau (BBB) to formally document the issue and seek assistance in having my case properly reviewed. This is not intended as an attack on EA—I simply want my account and transaction history examined fairly by a person. If anyone has experienced a similar situation or has advice about getting a proper manual review, I would appreciate hearing from you. Thank you.Solved100Views2likes4Comments
