    was it stupid to assume that limited time meant unlimited access until release just like season ticket, i think its obvious they kept the 6 hour thing a secret because they knew people thought it would be like season ticket

        I mean I get the frustration. This is the first time in years iv been legit excited for a Madden and I wanna play the thing. Iv got Access like the rest of you, iv got the game downloaded on my console. But theres nothing we can do, other than let EA and MS know whats up, which we all have.
        Hey I have a question for you. If you pay for milk, do you get milk? If you pay for gas, do you get gas? If you pay for a car, do you get a car? You see where I'm going with this. If you go to the store and pay for something, you get it or get a replacement and/or your money back. How are video games any different?

        Flat out, we have paid for this and I'VE wanted to play this game for awhile. I can deal with the fact that under "member benefits" on the XBOX ONE App it says we have 5 days to play the game and it's really only 6hrs. How can you defend paying for service and not receiving it? I'm not even mad, at this point I'm laughing, but still I'm annoyed just like the majority of people who paid for this and can't play.

          Thanks for your patience.
          By the way, everyone will still get their full allotment of time on the trial. The delays to this working will not affect that. You will all get your play time.

              Weren't some people able to access it yesterday. Then it locked up. So at some point it was working correctly.

              I asked this earlier but I don't think any responded. Is it working for anyone?

                I assume that means no time added to the trial? Just checking.

                  I wonder if fixing that messed up this.

                    I have the exact same company/DL speed. There is no way you downloaded the entire Battlefield 4 game in 30 mins. Madden 15, which is at least half the size downloaded in about an hour and 15 minutes. I pay for 50 mbps and my average speed is around 48 mbps. You may have something better than 50 if that's true.

                      Would be nice if you guys could increase the time. I'm aware that we have 5 days to use the 6 hrs but 3 plus hours of those 5 days has been taken away because of this error.

                        I do agree. I can be patient with it. And I actually think it'll be resolved very soon.

                        This isn't a server capacity type thing. I just think it's an oversight.

                        But in the end, it should be working.
                        Being kind, one to another, never disappoints.

                          Understand that AJ and thanks for the update. Think some people are upset because they set aside this time to play and they may have to work all weekend and monday and that is why they are upset. I understand why people are upset and want they time to be extended for having to wait etc. When I get to play is when I get to play, not to concerned here. Again thanks for the update.

                            maybe we should get a few more BONUS hours for our troubles and headaches?

                              They're WHOLLY different, particularly when we are talking about digital titles. EA had everything set to go, when the data was sent to MS to be uploaded to their servers, they hit a snag. Most likely due to the recent update to MS's system that allowed Pre Installation of games. The service seems to have trouble differentiating from Access users and non access users. Again, im not saying you cant be frustrated. Im frustrated myself.

                              So your analogy of buying milk or gas is in NO way relevant.

                                Yay, I'm one of the lucky ones that it won't install and let me play! Thanks EA and MS! You couldn't help but to trip over yourselves to take my money and then you made up specific rules afterwards. (My mistake for jumping the gun and assuming it would be similar to prior programs) And now you can't even follow through on your end of the deal.
