so i found this on the EA forums

Ok I'm back and "I HAVE THE ACHIEVEMENT".

How I did this cost me my FIFA Level, coins, DLC.. Basically everything including UT although good job I banked my team on another account so happy.

Anyways.. I contacted EA a few times and they said the gift feature is working and they couldn't understand why it wasn't for me. So with hours of serching and asking I came up with the idea of merging my GamerTag to another fresh origin account... I asked EA and they did this for me in under five minutes.

I loaded up FIFA and went to the catalogue and gifted for the first time and POP, achievement unlocked..

I'm now asking EA to merge my account back to the original now so I can get my original level. Hope this works if not I got the achievement.

Done this with two accounts to test before I done my main account and each and everyone worked.

Basically if you can't gift I'm thinking you're origin is glitched in someway like mine.

Happy Achievement Hunting!!

Gutting but happy!

geez crashed my game twice on one friend, switched to another friend and it worked. Try switching friends if it repeatedly crashes. Game itself improvement from Fifa 14 but much less stable. Never once did F14 glitch or crash on me.

Raidenhardcore, try to send a gift to another player. If it doesn't work, add me to your friend list and try to send it to me. For most of the cases it crashes the game, but for some friends it does work, like in my case

This is a solution for anyone having an error saying you cannot send gift to a friend.

For me I only have 1 friend on my list that plays this game, and when I went to send a gift the little icon by their name was red with a little dash beside it.

If you have a second account on your XBOX that does not play this, try starting up an Ultimate Team with that second account. Make sure that second account is on your friends list as well. Now Skip the tutorial game and set up your squad. Now when on the squad page, hit cn_Y and go to "Share your Squad with friends". Once I did that, I signed out of my second account and signed back into my main one.

When I signed in to my main account, I clicked cn_RS to make sure that their activity showed on the list. Then I went to the Home tab and selected Catalogue. Now pick the cheapest item, I think I chose a new ball, then select Gift Item, and the list of your friends will come up and the little icon by your second accounts name should be grey, not red and you can now gift an item to them.

Let me know if this worked for you guys, or another way you did it and I can add to this solution to help out as many people as we can.

I was having problems with this. Every time I tried to gift an item the game would lock up and return to the XBox guide....but I finally got it last night

Create a new account on my xbox and start FIFA. (You can end/skip/forfeit any matches it puts you in)
Go through the process of setting up an EA account for this gamertag.
Go into Ultimate Teams, go through the tutorial stuff until you are at the stage where you have control to do whatever you like.
Go to the SQUADS tab
Choose ACTIVE SQUAD (there may be more tutorial stuff, i don't remember)
Top right of the screen should say cn_Y Squad Actions
Press cn_Y and choose to Share your Squad
Go back to your main account and gift an item to your new gamertag.

Worked first time for me. Hope it helps

The EAS FC Catalogue can be found on the "Home" screen from the main menu (use cn_L1 or cn_R1 from the "Main Menu" to move to the "Home" screen). Use thecn_up, cn_down, cn_left, or cn_right to highlight the "Catologue" tile, and press the cn_Xbutton to enter the Catalogue.

Use thecn_L1or cn_R1 buttons to highlight "All Items" tab (or select the tab you wish to gift the item from), highlight the item you wish to gift & press the cn_Xbutton to select, highlight "Gift Item to a Friend",cn_X again, then highlight the friend , press cn_X once more to gif them the item.

Simple enough, eh? Well, not really.

First, the friend you wish to gift to has to have a copy of FIFA 15 and have played it at least once. Second, that friend has to have played it on the same version of the console you have played it on. You can't gift to a friend who has never played the game - and you can't gift to a friend who has the game on the Playstation 4 while you only have it on the Playstation 3.

If there are issues you'll keep getting the "Gift Not Sent" message. In that case, try a different friend.

As a side note, you may notice when selecting your "Friend" that some friends have a "greyed" out name with a little "x" through their icon. This just means they are offline - you can still gift to them as long as they've both played the game & played the game on the same level of console you are currently trying to gift from.

As another side note, the most inexpensive item you can easily gift is the "Muevelo Goal Celebration, under the "Gameplay" tab. It's 50 FCC - so it shouldn't be an issue for anyone bu the newest of FIFA noobs.


You can also - alternatively - access the EAS FC Catalogue by pressing the Option button cn_start on the Dualshock controller (assuming you are on a screen where the quick menu is accessible), then using the cn_left or cn_right to move over to the Catalogue menu - the menu is represented by a yellow shopping cart icon.

Then simply use the cn_down and cn_up until you get to the item you wish to gift, press thecn_X & then follow the rest of the instructions from above.

A lot of words for what should have been one of the simplest of trophies - but EA does like to complicate the easiest of things.

In the main menu press and go to the “Catalog” tab. There, select any item and send it to a friend (or a second account, if there are no friends). The cheapest item costs 50 FCC.

I didn’t want to give a gift - the error kept popping up.
I did this:
- without leaving the main account, I took an account that is not linked to the origin (or created a new account)
- added him as a friend to the main one
- launch FIFA on a new account and register in origin
- go to the game settings and select personalization->profile->manage profile in the menu
- make the main profile active (you will probably need to change the profile to the main one)
- go to the main menu and go to the catalog and make a gift
