+1 - again.
Just had livechat, posted below:
Mach: Hi, my name is Mach. How may I help you?
: Hi, Bought 400 points for GoA DLC, and got the common "bugger off, you can't d/l it" error that EA are aware of. Was wondering if you know when this will be fixed?
Mach: I'm sorry for the inconvenience cause to you.
Mach: Please provide me the the e-mail address through which you login to the game.
:***********@hotmail.com
Mach: You haven't got the DLC?
: Try to "buy" with points, but get the "Sorry your request could not be completed at this time, please try again.. " message that a lot of people on the forums are also complaining about
Mach: Ok, and you have not being charged the points, correct?
: correct
Mach: Ok
Mach: This is a temporary issue and our engineers are already aware of this. They are working to resolve this as soon as possible. I would advise you to please wait for some time and then try again to login and play the game online. If the issue persists, you can contact us again. We will be happy to assist you.
Mach: it will be resolved as soon as possible.
Mach: For all this inconvenience I'm giving you 100 points from my side as a compensation.
Mach: Is that good enough for you?
: Nah, sorry. that would't even buy the feastday pack, whatever that is. I'd prefer my credit card to be reimbursed, and I'll buy it again when the tech issue is sorted.
Mach: Ok
Mach: Is there anything else I can do for you ?
: Will you arrange the reimbursement?
Mach: Which DLC are you trying to buy?
: Golems of Amgarrak
Mach: Well I would have provided that to you free of cost but I don't have that with me right now.
: Well, that's a much better offer, which I would accept & just wait for the tech issue resolution
Mach: Do you want any other DLC?
: Well, in a few days time I would be hoping to be able to d/l Witch Hunt
: but current DLC, not really fussed
Mach: Well I can offer you Lion's paw or Wicked Oath.
: They don't appear in my available DLC...
Mach: Ok
Mach: I'm providing you 400 points so that you can buy your next DLC.
Mach: Now, that is what I can last offer you.
: That's good enough for me mucker. I'll keep my fingers crossed for the tech boys :-)
Mach: haha
Mach: Ok, please check your account now.
: Aye, account up to 800 points. Cheers matey
Mach: Great!
Mach: Is there anything else I can do for you ?
: Email the tech nerds to not go home until they've sorted it? Apart from that, job's a good'un. Cheers.
