Fixed!
See end of first post
LOL dude.. the problem is obviously not on your side and you wasted so much time to fix this issue 🙂
It's EA problem and we have to wait for them to fix it.
A lot of us with same message btw. :\
I am fairly confident the issue resides with easo.ea.com and http://accounts.ea.com/
I'm wondering if this isn't what is happening to me:

As far as I understand it, this guy's ISP assigned him an IP that happened to be banned from EA and it blocked him from accessing easo.ea.com and accounts.ea.com<---game activation server(s)
Unfortunately I don't understand what he did to fix it so I can test it out.
First post updated with some semi-official word from EA on the issue. Their workaround did not work for me but give it a try (though it seems like a risky thing to do...but what do I know?)
Did you ever get this fixed? I've had the same issue for a month now.
