Summarize your bug I don't get a skin in my inventory after opening a battlepack
How often does the bug occur? Occasionally (10% - 49%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I'm not sure, I simply open up some battlepacks and don't receive some of the skins. This doesn't happen that often at all, but when it does, it really frustrates me. Just a side note, I often open battlepacks in large quantities, so that might have something to do with it.
What happens when the bug occurs? I open a battlepack, receive a skin, add it to my inventory, but it doesn't show up when I want to equip it.

Good day.
I have recently had this bug where I would open a battlepack, receive a skin, add it to my inventory just to end up not being able to equip it, because it's not there. This doesn't happen that often, but it has cost me some really good skins before, the most memorable being "The Care Package" skin.
So, I decided to make this bug report after contacting an EA Advisor, and even after he contacted the specialist team, they said I'd have to open a bug report for this. My problem is that I received "The Care Package" M1911 skin in the Nivelle Nights revision, but it didn't show up in my inventory and I couldn't equip it. I would really appreciate it if someone could look into this and potentially give me the skin back.
I'm not sure what causes this, but I do very often open a big amount of battlepacks at once. In the case of the Nivelle Nights revision, I bought about 20 superior battlepacks, received "The Care Package" somewhere between the 10th and 14th battlepack, but I ended up not having it in my inventory. I opened up the rest of the superior battlepacks hoping I'd get it again, with no luck.

Any help is appreciated,
Cheers!

Where is the most place that I'm likely to come across an EA employee, as I'd like my skin back.

Got it, thank you very much for your reply.
Unfortunately, it seems like there will be no way to receive my skin back then. This thread should still be looked into however as it is a bug, and I'm not the only one who's experienced this. It seems this bug happens quite often to Super Rare skins, as I have seen several threads on the Battlefield forum talking about how they have lost their Super Rare skins out of nowhere. And yes, I am 100% sure that I didn't scrap it.
To anyone who's also experiencing this bug, there seems to be no way that the skin can be given back, as the EA Advisors have only given me the option to receive a compensation battlepack for the loss of the skin.

I have actually been in live chat with quite a few Advisors over this issue.
Some of them said they added the skin to my account, but once I check it turns out it's still not there. Apparently they were confusing the skin I was talking about (The Care Package) with one that I already unlocked via the Play to Give mission (Package from Home), and so they were adding the Package from Home skin to my account, instead of The Care Package.
Any Advisor who actually understood which skin I was talking about ended up telling me they couldn't grant me the skin, and one Advisor took it up to a Specialist, who then told the Advisor to send me to the forums (hence why I'm here).
I ended up emailing support instead, and the information I got through email was much more useful. They told me that it unfortunately was not possible to grant the skin back for me, but they could give me a compensation battlepack. I was and still am upset over losing the skin, but at least they're kind enough to provide me with a form of compensation. I agreed and also asked them to forward the bug to DICE if possible, but I have still not received a reply since, and haven't received my compensation yet.
I hope I clarified everything. I have already gotten into live chat with support, and emailed them, to no avail.
