Given the global impact of the current situation I'm sure you can appreciate how this has affected us in many ways. As a result we did have to make some changes to our support options. For more info on what exactly has changed I'd recommend checking out this post:

The $5 payment that you mentioned sounds like you're referring to EA Access or Origin Access. If you own one of our games you don't need a membership for one of these services in order to play them. You don't have to pay us a $5 subscription to play EA games that you already own. Please don't spread misinformation.
