Please explain. So the fact that EA has recently been banning players from playing the Battlefield Beta in Linux isn't "EA", it's the customers fault? I downloaded the beta then it suddenly dawned on me that it was EA... oh right, I can't play it can I The point I was trying to make is that EA's support is appalling and disrespectful. Yes my Origin account should have been more secure, but I don't often log in to Origin as all my games are on Steam. Around the same time that I realised that my account had been hacked, I also discovered that someone had also stolen my Minecraft account and after contacting Mojang and being told that they had a backlog and I would have to wait for months, they actually got my account back with in days, no questions asked. My Origin account was hacked and abused and was made the criminal. So I guess you're saying that this a fair?

Hi, I'm just watching your latest WAN show and something Linus said about Intel, really hit a nerve. "Admitting you did something wrong with your customers." I would like EA to be called out for their appalling disregard to paying customers. Especially with regards to their "Terms of Service" team. Maybe this isn't relevant anymore and I should have requested this many years ago, but I'm basically at the point now where my only option remaining is to drive to an EA office to prove my innocence. On the 12th October 2015 at 9.06am a purchase for FIFA 16 and 12,000 FIFA 16 Points was made on my account. Then at 9.08am an additional purchases of 2,200 FIFA 16 Points, 4,600 FIFA 16 Points and 12,000 FIFA 16 Points. I have just done a conversion of this for the time (had not occured to me to try this before) and I am rather horrified to discover that it totals around £185 ($285)! No wonder EA are upset. When I saw this transaction I contacted EA support and, made a case etc and waited. To this day I have not received a reply regarding this. In April 2019 I had the urge to play a game I loved playing when I was working in Rwanda back in 2005-7 which was Need 4 Speed Unlimited. I knew it wasn't on my account so I tried to log into Origin to purchase it. After several attempts to reset my password and not being able to log in, I contacted EA support. After weeks of chats and phone calls I finally got a reason from their ToS team: Hello, Product Name: Origin Email Address: Thank you for contacting us regarding the action that was taken on your account. The action pertains to the following violation: Multiple Payment Failures After thoroughly investigating your account and concern, we found that your account was actioned correctly and will not remove this sanction from your account. Thank you, EA Terms of Service Apparently, after the purchase of the FIFA stuff, a "chargeback" was actioned and my account was locked. So since the Terms of Service team as tagged my account with this "sanction" thing, they are clearly refusing to look at any evidence, completely disregarding the fact that I live in England and all my purchases up until this time were made using GBP and then all of a sudden a purchase for a game I have no interest in, was purchased on my account using Rubels, costing a stupid amount of money! I would never spend that much money on a game, let alone do this "chargeback" thing. EA have unlawfully stolen games from me and I want my account back. I have read so many posts of other people getting nowhere due to EA's ToS team, going round and round in circles like me. Yes I know I could create a new account, but that's not the point. If you doubt me, then look at my Steam account, can you find a football game on there? I can't find any! I would post my entire Steam purchase list if it would help! I pasted it into Excel earlier and was shocked to see how much I've spent in 18 years! Something needs to be done and I believe LTT could make a difference. People respect you, I respect you. I love your channel and have been a fan for many years. Please help do something about the appalling way EA support treats their customers. I really don't want to have to drive to Guildford Regards, Nick (sWi7zLe)

Hi, love the channel/s. After watching the recent Wan Show and hearing what phones you both use, although I wasn't entirely what Linus said, was it the Mi 9? It made me wonder what your staffs "goto" peripherals are. You you clearly get a lots of hardware and phones to test but you are both using older phones. I had a S3 until I saw your PocoF1 pixel mod thing and I expect to have this phone for many years to come. By the way Linus, have you heard of these things called "bumpers"? My phone is constantly upside down as was my 6 year old S3, neither have a single scratch! Anyway, I was just wondering if there is anywhere that we can see what peripherals you prefer to use, monitors etc. Personally I'm not bothered about mice as for the 25 or so years of gaming, once I had purchased the MX518 (and then another), that's pretty much the only mouse I've ever used. I did buy a Razer Chroma a couple of years back and the left button lasted a whopping 6 months! So I bought new mouse feet and went back to the 518's. I would very much like a new keyboard though. I currently use the Corsair RGB K70. It's okay, but I would quite like one of these "silent" mechanical keyboards. Been wanting to try a monitor with high refresh for a while now to see how much of difference it could make to my gaming, but being stuck in my ways I've always preferred gaming on a 16:10 ratio monitor and still use a Hanns.G HZ281H Although recently I have started gaming on my Samsung 55" NU8000 and am simply loving 4k gaming! So is there anywhere that we can see what we can see what you and your techy staff prefer to use? Also, really don't care about leds except on keyboards, sorry if that is blasphemy on here! I've just never understood the appeal of having a disco going on in my room while I'm gaming. Cheers
