Buying packs fails. Started with the new special veteran pack but now has happened to my friend on the recruit pack. Either way, lame. 33,000 credits gone. 

More specifically, the credits at first seem to not be deducted, but rather I simply don't get the packs and get the error message. Then I suddenly can't play multiplayer anymore and get dropped. After I quit the game and restart the multiplayer issue is gone but the credits are also gone.

Happened to me too, but I was trying to buy a Spectre Pack so that's 60k and an hour gone for me. How do you contact customer service again?

Buying stuff constantly fails today. But I get the credits back.

But I cant even join a game anymore. When I try to join a game the "communicating" message in the top left corner don't even show. Nothing works. Not even the leaderboards.

Okay. Scratch that. I tried quiting and starting the game up again to get the multiplayer working (and it works now it seems), but now my credits are gone. :(

It happened to me a couple of times yesterday with the new Premium Veteran Packs, and today I don't think it's worked at all. At least 3 PV Packs have failed, as well as a Recruit Pack. I just bought a Spectre Pack using 'real' money, because when you do it checks for outstanding purchases, and that pack also failed. It failing with in-game credits i can sort of tolerate (barely, it's still not right), but failing with actual currency is just not acceptable.

Did your money get deducted from your account regardless?

it did yes, but i've just gone back to multiplayer to see if anything changed and the one i paid with real money for has, after about 10 attempts by the game to check for outstanding purchases, unlocked properly. it's something at least.

I can buy packs now, but the 60k I blew on the spectre pack is still gone. Contacted EA Game Advisor and he told me to post my problem here.

This is ridiculous. More than half the time I am unable to buy packs. Will this get fixed?

Same deal for me, but I used real money (not credits) to purchase the Veteran Special & Spectre packs...both transactions went through, I was charged, but after multiple attempts I still don't have new items in my loadouts.

Contacting the HELP Desk pointed me here...seriously, they said "It's a know issue..." and they're working to resolve.

same problem, support told me to paste my issues here, so....
You are now ready to chat with Ashish.
Ashish: Thanks for contacting EA Help! My name is Ashish how may I help you?
you: i am experiencing diddiculties with the packages in mass effect 3
you: the multiplayer ones u buy to unlock new stuff
you: when the error comes up it tells me to contact customer support if the issue keeps on happening
you: i have literally lost a couple of hundred thousand in game credits due to this error
Ashish: You meant commendation pack, right?
you: not sure, in multiplayer you go to "store" to purchase the recruit veteran or spectre packs, they are what are giving me the problems
you: wasnt sure if i was to contact ea support or playstation support?
Ashish: I can understand your concern. Please don't worry, I will try my best to help you out.
Ashish: I would need some time to investigate this, please stay connected.
you: need to get it fixed as it makes playing multiplayer a nightmare
you: will usually allow me to buy a couple of packs and then it goes to the error, then i usually reset the ps3 and it will work again but most of the time it has taken most of my credits
Ashish: Okay
you: maybe 2 days ago i had around 150 thousand credits, went to buy a spectre pack for 60 thousand, came back with the error, reset ps3, i then had 3.6 thousand credits
Ashish: Okay.
Ashish: Please give me just a moment while I look into this further.
Ashish: Please stay connected I am working on your issue.
Ashish: I appreciate your patience and cooperation.
you: anything yet?
Ashish: Thank you for the patience!, Rob
Ashish: Please paste this issue on official forum, our developers will look in to it and get back to you via email.
Ashish: Please paste your issue here.
Ashish: http://social.biowar.../1/subindex/102

Happened to me with at least two or three recruits, two veterans, and one premium veteran. I've taken a break from MP until they fix these issues.

The same problem happen to me, I lost Spectre Kit, and Recruit Kit so I gave up.  I've stop playing Mass Effect 3 for a week since i've encountered that bug.   <_<

you actually get the pack that you bought, assuming that you only attempt to buy one, if you check your equipment tab you can see an increase in equipments. It leads to disconnection if i try to keep playing when i fail to buy pack. The not quite so solution before they patch it is to quit the game entirely when you fail to buy a pack, then reload the game and you should find that you have obtain items and lose the right amount of credits

Not true Wings. If it were, in fact, adding to your equipment, it would be denoted as "NEW" where applicable. That, however, isn't the case here...for everyone.

This pretty much killed MP for me. I don't think I'll be coming back, too many good games out there...

When it says that an error occurred I know I'm about to lose connection. If I exit the game before then and come back I then can buy packs but it only works...every other day. So, hopefully they have this issue fixed soon.

So what are our options now? I've lost a specter (60k), veteran (20k) and the limited ed veteran (33k)...all taken from me without giving me anything. EA should really fix this, the uncredited exp is bad enough when you get disconnected. I makes me feel like I'm wasting so much time for NOTHING!
