 Guys, I don't know if you are aware, but your pricing structure is kinda broken at the moment:

1600 Points = £13.00 (Approx 123.08 points per £)
800 Points = £6.00 (Approx 133.33 points per £)
560 Points = £4.00 (Approx 140 points per £)
400 Points = £3.00 (Approx 133.33 points per £)

Why would anyone buy 1600 points in one go when it is more expensive than any other combination of points up to 1600? For example:

4 x 400 Points (1600 Points) = 4 x £3.00 (£12.00) £1.00 cheaper 
3 x 560 Points (1680 Points) = 3 x £4.00 (£12.00) £1.00 cheaper and 80 more points
2 x 800 Points (1600 Points) = 2 x £6.00 (£12.00) £1.00 cheaper

Now not only does it make it more expensive for us end users if we decide to buy 1600 points in one go, but if we decide to use the 3 x 560 points option and process 3 PayPal transactions then it is costing you money as well?

Shouldn't it be slightly cheaper per point the more you buy, not dearer? I am sorry, but it just doesn't make any business sense, and offers no incentive to us end users to buy larger packs.

I came to the forums looking to see if anyone else noticed this lately. It looks like not only are the prices really screwed up, but they're changing!

Yesterday, the available options were

1600 for £13 - yes, BioWare sales, you can't do math
1200 for £9
800 for £6
400 for £4.33 or £4.50 - I don't remember

TODAY the option for 400 points is gone. Below is a screenshot for that I see right now. I wish I'd taken a picture yesterday too to compare.

I'm wondering whether I should rush to get points now before they 'fix' i.e. raise prices, or run away now before I experience any more EA/BioWare incompetence.

The lack of a shopping cart to purchase multiple items in a single transaction is also a pain.

Just been reading a bunch of forum threads created in the last month regarding people having trouble redeeming BW points, losing points but not getting the content they requested, and so on. I'm actually quite frightened and appalled.

Folks, as far as I am aware, there has been no Bioware or EA personage active in this forum in several weeks now.  You can tell the EA Help game advisors about it, but I don't know that they will do anything about the situation (bottom of the page, it's called Bioware Support, I think), stick to the Chatline, though.

I used to buy 1200 points but that is nowhere to be seen and yes 1600 points is more expensive than 2x800,this is pure madness.
