Last week, before receiving 300 EC from the Stove PC Week 1 event, my eCoin balance was 640 EC (500 EC from a top-up, 500 EC from the 100Club bonus, and 50 EC from Midnight Madness, minus 400 EC spent on the Topaz Lotto since April 30).
I repeatedly tried to buy a 4S EDB Card from the Trade Shop but kept getting a "not enough eCoin balance" error. I assumed my remaining balance was from event eCoins, which can’t be used in the Trade Shop, so I gave up. 😭
A few days after receiving the 300 EC from the Stove PC event, I panicked and bought Special Offer Packages C and D because I thought my 600+ EC might expire by May 30. Later, I noticed I still had enough eCoins to buy one 4S EDB Card (costs ~30 EC). To my surprise, the purchase went through successfully! This is so freaking frustrating because I was saving my 600 EC for the upcoming Lapis Lotto (D. Eagle Demonic Beast + Lan Xier Character). 😫
Has anyone else had this issue with eCoin balances or event restrictions? Any tips for managing EC or avoiding this mess?
