Multiple EA Access Trials - Same Console

Has EA cracked down on this? Have been able to do it the last few years with multiple profiles on same Xbox. Having some issues this year.

Dont see why EA would have cracked down, they get to sell 10 hours of a game for 5.99 lol

Either would I. I easily spend $60 just on trials during the week of EA Access. I've already used up my 10 hours, switched to new profile, bought EA Access again, signed out of old profile, tried to launch M20 but get the "You don't own this game" error.

It even says on the 1st trial that if you don't want to use this trials time, sign out and sign in with a different profile that has access to EA Access.

Restarted console, etc.. to no avail. Will keep trying and update this thread if it starts to work on 2nd profile.

They prob cracked down because they are getting burned by people cancelling and getting refunds.

No they haven't. I figured it out.

You have to go to the Madden 20 game online, on your computer and click the "Free Trial" button signed into your other profile. Once you do that, the Madden 20 trial launches on your xbox. To play on your normal profile, just switch profiles once the trial is launched.

Enjoy.

Doesn't look like an issue for PS4. Cancelation happens after billing cycle ends. No refunds. That way they get their $5. Worth it for an extra 10 hours each time. They should just charge $5 for as many 10 hours as you want on one account.

Other than being able to enjoy the game what is the benefit to playing it under different accounts? Are you farming resources in MUT that you would eventually transfer over?

Personally, I just want to play.

You can also just click the ... next to install and find the same "free trial" link right on your XB

Does it work for the extra 10 hours?

So does this confirmed give you more hours on your main?

Re: Multiple EA Access Trials - Same Console

I have always done this, it's a shame that they are making it more difficult. If anything, just make it so it is how it is on PS4 for Xbox, once you purchase the month you cannot get a refund.

Personally I've always thought they were kind of stupid for allowing someone to buy EA Access, play 10 hours, cancel and get a full refund. I mean it's great for us but what are they getting out of it really?

The game is ready and I've pre-ordered a special edition. I get building up anticipation and all but I really should be playing now.

Would this require me to create a new gamer tag and a new account with EA?
