Accidentally spent donuts!! Help!

★★★ Newbie
I was browsing premium items and accidentally bought a funzo! The thing is creeping me out, I really don't want it running around my springfield, does anyone know how I can give it back and get my donuts back?!

Accidental donuts

★ Novice

I bought 300 donuts but it s didn't load so I thought that it didn't work. I then bought another 300 sand it worked and a day later my original 300 showed up. I have not spent the additional donuts can I get a refund since I only meant to buy 300 not 600.

You'll have to contact EA support over the phone.  They can't help you here.

Accidentally click on donuts

This has happened several times now and it's annoying!  Can a confirmation before donuts are used be added in?  I have accidentally used donuts while "collecting taxes".  Before I know it I have used 12, 20, or whatever donuts to "speed up" when I didn't want to.  It's bad enough when I have carefully been nursing my donuts o save up door something.  What even worse is when they get spent by accident after I have used real money to get them.

Accidental use of donuts

★★★ Newbie

I was tapping to select a quest but i over tapped that caused me to use my donuts and finish the quest. I would like a refund on my donuts. I would choose to manually finish the quest just like what I have been doing previously

So you want a refund because you tap too fast and didn't hit the cancel button?  Yeah, ok.

I don't think they'll give you a refund of donuts. I've complained about being disappointed for getting a planter (10 donuts) from a Homer Buddha (15 donuts) and EA didn't have much to say about it. 

 

Just know that when you attempt to rush a job using donuts you have a couple of seconds to cancel it. 

 

If it makes you feel better I accidentally purchased a stupid Funzo for 70 donuts this morning as I was scrolling through the store. Now I'm stuck wit it and cannot get the Plow Homer I wanted. =(

I wish there was a prompt to ask if you want to make purchases with donuts.

Doh!

 

I completely understand your frustration! I accidentally bought a stupid 70 donuts Funzo when scrolling through the store deciding which items I wanted. A funzo was NOT one of them! I think EA should create a "are you sure?" button when making purchases with donuts.

Yeh I fell into the trap of accidentally spending donuts. Now I never keep any in stock, I always buy white fences with any I have spare for extra cash and XP. I am sure the interface is design that way though.

Agree, it's too easy for them to make lots of money out of you, even when you get something you didn't want...
