Do I have to buy Premium Edition Battlefield 4?

If I bought the bf4 premium pass with origin access and now buy the base game bf4 without subscription, will I still have the premium pass?

I bought the premium pass with origin access and played the game using the vault (today EA playlist / EA play), now I cancelled my subscription and longer have access to bf4 base game.

If I buy the base game will I retain the premium pass?

If so, why does the premium pass not show up in my EA app?

    Hey @ImHeirOfChaos 

    The bonus content for every game purchased with an EA Play membership will expire when you cancel the subscription. If you want to use the BF 4 Premium Edition without EA Play, you will need to purchase it separately. The same applies to the Premium Service.

    Does that apply to origin access?

    I don't think I was made aware of this when buying the premium pass. 

    This answer seems to indicate otherwise:

    In the answer "EA_Nils" says:

    "You indeed retain ownership of the DLC and as soon as you either purchase the base game, or pick up an Origin Access membership again, you can continue."
