Get on to the EA chat support and tell them to cancel your order, I think that is the only way unfortunately, use a full-proof excuse like you don't have the funds to fulfil the order or something.

Seems to be a few people with the same problem. Gzero is right, you need to contact EA direct through their online support:

http://support.ea.com/

Support Links/Contact Us:

Once you've logged in with the appropriate email address etc, this will open up a form where you need to type in the game: Battlefield 3, then select billing/purchasing after selecting PC as your game platform. Then email the blighters and tell them you'd like to cancel.

If you do get any trouble with them, you could always contact your bank. Have the payment details ready (you would likely have had an email with them), basically the date and time you made the purchase. As it's not been charged yet you'll need to explain that to the bank.

It's bad EA don't give you a simple cancel button. Shame on them for making it so difficult to manage your purchases.

Thanks. I have raised a ticket with them so will wait and see how long it takes to get processed.

G'luck mate.

As title for those interested.

Dam Gzero you beat me to IT

Also this is a good read IMO - My biggest gripe was with the squads but they appear to have listened on this. Time will tell with the netcode but they are saying that it should be improved so fingers crossed.

To be very very honest, I'm going to hold off till a few months after and see how the netcode is, it is very annoying in BC2 to unload a whole clip into someone when clearly there isn't enough snapshots happening.

Have you played BC2 post the last patch? I noticed a big difference with that patch.. Main BC2 became a lot closer to Vietnam which always seemed to have better hit reg to me...
