In our faction, T2P (not in Italy's top 1500), we like walls. We buy a wall for every fight.
In our most recent fight, we bought our wall just before we started.

Our leader spent his few moments tapping to make a wall, saw the concrete and the money vanish and so then, with his team's assent, declared war.
We were all excited. We enjoy the WD event in the 1500-4000 bracket.
We were matched quickly, and we set to. One power attack failed but the second was victorious.
We started at their wall, which was small. This was going to be a lovely battle. Everything was in our favour.
Only their scores were better than ours, and so quickly.
We reviewed the data. Their wall was down, their defence leader beaten.
Our wall was 'none'.

Crikey... that made for a difficult sort of situation.

We elected to fight on, though some of us thought we out to stop and instead, go make some paid-for walls vanish at Gree headquarters. We kept quiet, for it is a game we are playing, not something very very important.

Obviously our team is in the mostly free category of players, who cannot claim to have spent a lot of money on the game, but for those of us that have, I presume we get an apology and a refund and some sort of additional recompense for the interruption in our streak.

Has this happened to others too?

P.S. Though most comments are welcomed, Captain Condom is not. I do hope someone from his ex-faction put him out of his misery.
