The FP+ system is only letting me book a total of 2 FP's at Epcot!!

I am so frustrated right now. My FP+ window opened today and I am trying to book some FP's at Epcot. We haven't booked FP's at Epcot ever since they started the FP+ system since we feel it's usually a waste and that they're better spent in the other parks where there's not so much tiering. We usually do Epcot at rope drop and ride standby and use our FP's in our evening parks. But DH and I are going in Sept. for F&W and will be spending a few evenings at Epcot and we want to try both the new FEA and Soarin' (using FP+ on different days of course). HOWEVER the system isn't letting me book more than 1 FP from either tier for a total of 2.

First I booked FEA then I went to pick 2 things from the other tier knowing that I could only pick one from the first tier BUT I am getting a message that says I already picked one experience from the list and that's all I can book. The list includes: Short Film Fest., Journey into Imagination, Living with the Land, Meet Disney Pals, Mission Space, Seas with Nemo, Spaceship Earth, Turtle Talk. This is the message I'm getting at the top of this list:

Select a FastPass+ Experience
You may plan only 1 of these per day.
You already chose an experience from this list.
Select a Different Experience

Then when I go to the other tier list (where FEA and Soarin' is) I get this message:

Select a FastPass+ Experience
You may plan only 1 of these per day.

What gives???? Is this new???? Only 2 FP's at Epcot now???

You're the first one to report this.

I can only book 7 days out and the system is allowing 3 for Epcot.

Maybe they are tweaking the system so that guests don't waste Tier 2s and can move to another Tier 1 more quickly when in the parks? Or, it's just a glitch. What is your park date?

This is ridiculous. I am going to bed and will try again tomorrow (and probably call for help if I can't get it). I tried to book Epcot on 2 days and it happened on both days. People on the DVC boards were able to book 3 on random days in Sept. So then I moved on to try to book a day at MK. I booked the 1st two then when I tried to submit for the 3rd one I got the Olaf error where he lost his head. I closed out, went back in & then it let me finish. But still no go on booking the 3 for Epcot (I have tried with the mobile app and on my computer - it's just . not . letting . me . book . more . than . 2. Frustrating mess of a system. (First day of our trip is Sept. 17th....)

Maybe try using the app to book it?

It was happening with both.

Was your selection Living with the Land? If so, I wonder if the system is still recognizing it as Tier 1? Just a thought.

OP stated the first pick was FEA, but my first thought was also that the LWTL change could be causing issues for EPCOT FP selection, even if LWTL isn't one of the selections.

Oops, sorry. Time for coffee!

No. For my 1st day I picked FEA then Spaceship Earth & was going to pick basically anything but it didn't matter what - it wouldn't let me pick a 3rd. On my 2nd day I picked Soarin and Mission Space and then got the message. I don't remember what I was trying to pick - doesn't really matter as the only things worth using a FP on are in the Soarin / FEA tier.

NOW, this morning the mobile app isn't working for me. I try to sign in and it spins around once or twice then just sits there. It stops spinning and then nothing. Blank stare.

OK, well, the online FP booking system is now letting me book 3 FP's at Epcot without that message that says "these guests require attention". BUT the mobile app is NOT working at all for me. Soooo frustrating.

I'm on the app right now and the system gave me the same "you can only plan one of these per day" but it allowed 2 Tier 2s in Epcot. They must be working on app updates.
