I cancelled too! I really wanna see what excuse Microsoft will pull out to walk back the changes.

Hit 'em where it hurts, people.

    EA also further buried the ability to cancel EA accounts, after the announcement they had been sold to the Saudis and Kushner.

      Between that, this, and Disney+ cancellation page “accidentally” going down during that fiasco, this is exactly why I’ve switched to using only virtual cards for subscriptions. Pause/Cancel the virtual card, voila, no more subscription.

      Good thing I never signed up for one.

      Any Steam game that requires an EA, Ubisoft, Blizzard, whatever account is a total non-starter for me. I’ve looked at some of the newer Battlefields when they’re on sale for like $2 and I still can’t be convinced. Likely never will.

      Ok with me, there’s lots of other publishers out there, both independents and studios, that I’d much rather give my $2 to.

      To be fair, those kinds of changes do not usually happen so rapidly after a purchase, and was likely already planned for implementation and started before the sale.

      In other words, it is likely EA was already planning to make that change regardless of if the sale went through or not.
