In FIFA 23 the servers are under maintenance. The Web App and Companion App are also experiencing issues. EA has already reported on the server status.
Server down on 01/12: In FIFA 23 the servers are currently unavailable. Therefore, online matches, such as in Ultimate Team, are currently not possible. All platforms of the game are affected.
What about the Web App and Companion App? The companion apps for FIFA 23 are also currently unavailable. Thus, retrieving the Division Rivals rewards is currently not possible.
Additionally, players may receive the “Getting Started” message in the Companion App, indicating that apparently no FUT-23 account is linked to the EA account. This is likely also related to the maintenance.
