Three Copies of Generations
« on: May 31, 2011, 12:20:52 PM »
I'm am so confused. I pre-ordered Generations from the EA store and today I not only get my copy but two others as well. First I'm freaking out because I'm thinking something got messed up and they took the money out of my bank account for three games. I checked it all out and I'm only charged for one game, yet I have three copies. Did this happen to anyone else? What should I do?

3 Physical copies or digital? (I thought eastore only did digital but that might just be for non-us). Mistakes happen, contact them and let them know they sent 2 extra copies.

That happened to lilygirl except she got two. Contacting EA would be best probably.

All these people getting more than one copy is making me wonder what will be in my delivery box…

They are physical copies. They came in three different boxes and all the info on the invoices is the same execpt for customer number which is different on each invoice. Ohh I hope I didn't get sombody else's games. I would feel bad. Guess I will have to contact EA. I wonder how they got this all messed up and I hope because I got three that somebody else didn't get any :o

Eeep - if there are 3 different customer numbers, that does sound like you got someone elses copies. No need to feel bad though, its not your fault. Sounds like they had a glitch with their mail merge or something.

Yeah that's what I'm guessing too. I know it's not my fault but I still feel kind of bad because I know how excited I was today because it was Generation day and now somebody might be dissapointed.

There actually have been other users (on other forum) reporting the same issue.  So it's definitely not just you!

If that is the case, for sure contact them so you can find out which one is yours and you can send the other two back, so they can go to the proper people.  At least, that's the honest thing to do.  There are several dishonest possiblities as well, but I won't mention them.

Yeah, I got two discs yesterday. One around 9:15am (I was quite impressed at how punctual the service was!) and after I had opened it and gushed over it and registered it, I got the second one just before noon. I haven't opened the second disc, it's lying on the kitchen table with it's invoice. Maybe I should call EA as well. I also have 2 different customer numbers.

Wow I'm glad it's not just me. I haven't opened the other two either. I think I'm going to keep them for a few days before I call EA just to make sure they don't take it out of my bank account and if they don't I guess I will contact them and see if I can just return them.

You're all so lucky. I am jealous. :( I haven't even bought one copy yet - it costs too much! :-[

Aww I'm sorry, I wish I could gift them to people on this site but it's not very honest of me if I do, LOL.
