I've also been hit by this bug. I wouldn't have been so pissed off if the representative I was talking to feigned ignorance of the issue ("This is a gameplay issue, you have contacted ea support. Please refer to our gameplay guides on the website for help") twice even after referring them to the forums ("Here is a link to our EA forums if you would like to read posts about our community") and then only acknowledged the problem and assured me they were taking care of it after I told them I lost bioware points.
I've canceled my TOR subscription and refunded the copy I was giving to my buddy. Even after having worked for EA I should have known better than to support the company I often refer to as "evil" due to my first-hand experience with them.
Yeah I cancelled SWTOR too in relation to everything that's happened with Mass DEFECT 3. I had a community rep tell me to "post to the community" but I don't want answers from the community, I want them from BioWare, the people who made the game. The issue is critical and they are waiting until Friday to do some sort of maintenance... It should have been done today/tonight if necessary.
I dislike how some studios do these things right before the weekend too, then everything still goes wrong for the whole weekend, spoiling it for everyone. Today/tonight is when they should have done this maintenance. No offense either, but they need a better community rep who actually talks to the community. Being that I freelance in the industry or know people who work for other studios, BioWare in comparison to how the people I know handle things, is very unprofessional. I want to play the game, I want to know what happened to all the money I lost and I get no answers and due to money being involved, and people in this thread and all over the internet in other forums waiting anxiously for answers for several days now, you'd think they'd do this maintenance tonight, or even sooner since evidence of the bug existed in the demo itself.
Then the worst thing about it all is, they didn't put an in-game message, streaming on the alliance computer, warning people. The person at BioWare who started this thread said it was related to the store and readying games but the bug has happened while playing or not even in a match, or not even connected to a host (like me), it can happen from what I've read in this thread almost anywhere and at any time. Items just disappear, Bioware points balance vanishes. I didn't even learn about this through BioWare or their publisher EA or the Origin client. I heard about it through a person on Steam. It's sad that AFTER I lost things, I was shown a thread many days old about this bug that I could have avoided, if BioWare/EA had done the responsible thing and notified it's customers. The only communication I saw from EA was about some 50% spring sale...
