Unresolved

I'm a level 5 manager with a level 18 driver

What did you try to do?
Tried to buy a driver in an auction while looking at some elite players team page expecting to get an error. Still tried for curiosity (he was a 6 red star driver ofc)

What happened instead?
The bid went through! (lost a token) and at the end of the 3 hours the price of the driver (around 16M) got taken from me and it's actually in my roster at the moment haha. I feel bad leaving him.. but its salary is probably too much to handle in the long run for a low level manager like me..

Did the problem happen while using wi-fi, mobile data, or both?
Mobile data

Did the bug happen in the app, on PC, or both?
App

What is the model of your device?
OnePlus 6

What is the operating system?
Android

What is the version number of the operating system?
Android 9

Can the bug be reproduced?
It was more of a lucky event I guess. You need to find randomly a team selling his first/second driver while they are visible in the team page and just bid. Mine went through and I think it's reproducible!

Additional comments:

@iGP: maybe u should suspend transfers for the moment and sort things out. There seem to be a lot of problems with transfers right now.

Only thing I can do is sell it to get the money back now.. 

I just tried with an inactive team and it said error. Might've been patched but I'll see if it still works if it does then iGP have some stuff to sort out

I've lost drivers and staff when I don't check for their contract status. It's possible this was one of those moments of being at the right time and place in the game.  The driver's contract expired....sat long enough to be available through transfer and you were the lucky recipient.  However small the chances of this happening is, it's possible.
