"Ho-ho", says I, realizing for the first time that THIS is the reason I never thought digital distribution was a good idea. I thought (correctly, as it turned out) that all i'd need to do was wait untill it became available. I downloaded the trial in the meantime.

later, I recieved the email stating that my order was ready to download, but I'd need to download the "EADM" to do so. "well", thinks I, "I do REALLY want that Spore Creature Creator, and this is the only way to do it!" so I downloaded it. It opened, and the download seemed to begin. certainly a bar began to fill up. when full, I clicked "Play".

The game started, and i sat back, already dreaming of the menagerie of freaks I'd soon be able to create.

THEN I noticed that the game that was starting was the Trial version.

the FREE trial version, that I'd already Downloaded.

And unless there's another explanation that I'm just dying to be told, the FREE trial version that I've just been charged £4.99 for.

I want answers, frankly. And i have very little faith in the EA customer support service's ability to help me.

Apologies for the novel of a post, but I'm not too happy about this.

im the same, downloaded trial worked fine, when i paid for it though it downloaded and when i ran it all i got was that, this is the trial version and closes, so with EADM installed it doesnt even let play the trial never mind the thing I JUST PAID FOR!
