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.
Squad Battles AI
The update to career mode ai has completely broken and ruined squad battles. Might work on authentic but clearly doesn't on competitive, this must not have been tested and if it was then please fire those testers, they are clueless. Since I hate the online gameplay this year I decided to just build my evo team and chill, casually, in squad battles but that is beyond a joke now. A silver 71 rated, 3 chem team just passed the ball around like prime Barcelona. They had 70% possession and did not attack once. Every time i get a player within 5 feet of their player with the ball they pass sideways or back. At 2-0 down they were passing on halfway line and in their final third. You spend most of these squad battles games chasing shadows and waiting for them to make a mistake, not a single moment of enjoyment left in the one mode I could play casually and enjoy. Are you going to change squad battles ai back to how it was or change it back in some way? I'm going to need an answer on this @EA anyone because if you are then I'll keep playing but if not please at least say so on this post so I can move to a different game.
Missing Icon Swap Tokens – Anyone Else?
Missing Icon Swap Tokens I’m missing 2 Icon Swap tokens. I was very careful and definitely didn’t give any away or submit them by mistake. Because of this, I now have to win another 10 Champs matches to get R9, which is really frustrating. Has anyone else had this issue, or does anyone know how to fix it? Any help would be appreciated.Squad battles need fixing….to hard due to…
The game mode is to hard, because of the following The AI defence is always guessing everywhere you turn or pass etc. not how it is in real life or against other real players The AI presses to hard to get the ball back, many games they get the ball back in an average of 5 seconds The AI defending is just running through players, even from behind and never a foul, yet all I do is bounce off them and struggle to get the ball unless I make a standing or slide tackle, and with what been done with standing it goes in wrong direction 9 times out of 10 The AI defenders are to quick to recover with pace even on silver cards with 40 ish pace. Make it real The AI defence is always 9 back, and with the poor passing in the game it’s impossible to break the defence down, I don’t wanna score just on the fast break The AI holds onto the ball to long, I’ve just played a game and they had the ball for a good 20-30 mins in game time, 15 before half time and 15 after, recycling the ball to the GK included in this. Can’t get close to them and bounce off when trying to get the ball The AI is controlling more than one player at a time, and I’ve had 3 defenders all slide at the same time to stop the player, and the block….my AI refuses to move to a loose ball let alone slide to make a tackle The switching player feature is still choosing at times the player behind the ball, or a player nowhere near the ball General passing is very concerning in this game Crosses vs the AI is impossible and might as well be removed from the game, as they out jump a human everytime I find The GKs are better this year, but like with the out field players bring in physics….if you are shuffling to the left and have to dive right it’s impossible to get a good dive due to physical momentum. Also if a defender is running diagonally back left and you switch to his right the turn shouldn’t be able to turn on a dime to stop it. Make the players play to there ratings, and team chemistry. It affects my team, but an AI team can make 95% passing accuracy with a zero chem team and low rated silver/gold team this game could be so good, but the EA devs need to watch and try playing football to get a grasp of how movement works and inputting it into the game correctly…..after all the slogan is….if it’s in the game
