Spent about $200-250 on Origin last year ... no email for me so far. Not in Gmail spam either.

Have had several EA/Origin accounts all with verified emails.... nothing yet either. No idea how they're doing this.

Nothing for me either. Could be a gradual roll-out over time..

For those selecting Dragon Age: Origins, starting Sunday Amazon will have the Ultimate Edition of DA:O + Dragon Age 2 for $9.99. Check the Amazon Download sticky up top.

Of course, free is free, but it would be a shame if you were to enjoy Dragon Age: Origins and then have to pay more for the DLC.

How do you know if your email has been verified? I thought I had everything check out.

I have all three already...

If someone sent you just the code alone because they didn't simply forward the email, you should discuss the importance of context with them, as in, "Would it have killed you to send me the whole email so I wouldn't have had to muddle around trying to figure out how to use it?"

In fairness, having codes that work in the client but not on the site is confusing and dumb. I get why they're doing it--they want you to install the client--but in that case the error code on the website should say "This code must be redeemed through the Origin client," rather than "This code is invalid."

Haven't gotten shit despite being signed up for their newsletter. Have used Origin since day 1 because I used EA's Download Manager for years before. Thanks for treating your customers correctly EA.

If you're looking at the deals page, it should be one of the "stickied" posts up top. Tony (CAG Amazon DD rep) on posts #4535 and #4537 mentions the deal and says they'll be holding the deal all week long. Another plus is the fact that you don't need to run these versions of the games through Origin.

Origin sucks in general, so no surprise that I didn't receive an email

Someone's probably already done this, but I didn't feel like reading the whole thread. So I contacted support and asked what were the qualifications for getting one. She said none, that they were sent out randomly. I then asked if she could give me one manually, and she said she couldn't.

Oh werll, it was worth a shot, anyway.

I just realized I already own all of these titles already, though. o_o But I'm not sure how many Spore activations I have left... probably 2... or wait, does Origin change that problem?

That's kinda lame but I was probably just going to get Spore anyways since I have DA:O (still in my backlog) and BFBC2 on PS3.

hmm well if I do get this, I guess I'll get Spore, since I have the other 2 already

they expire tomorrow so use them ppl!!

So nobody used the code? Okay then I will be removing it in ten minutes. If somebody uses/d it just post it.

Okay thanks. I will remove it then. I had it in my email for days and was going to just let it expire but thought it a waste so I shared. Oh well.

Anyone have a code they want to sell me for $5?
