[Old Report] Dragon Age 2 Unauthorized DLC

I see a lot of threads on social media linking to that page and claiming the DLC is free (it always gets a ton of upvotes on Reddit). I understand why people are confused by that.

I had this issue as well recently. Logging into EA account does not work for authorization of DLC.

Solution:
You need to log into dragonagekeep.com and then sync your career in the Career section of the keep website.

Then you will be able to log in while running DA2 using your EA credentials. Once Logged in it will automatically authorize the DLC.

Does not work without a synced career I found.

This worked, thank you! For anyone going thru xbox/pc: I had two EA accounts for some reason (no idea how I managed that) so things were miscommunicating. EA was connecting to my xbox email even though I was signing into the app prior to playing with the correct account each time, (with my EA name vs email addy). It was still connecting to the wrong account. I had to change my email on both EA accounts so the email it was connecting to that had all my play thru data was the same as my xbox email. I couldn't find an option to delete the erroneous one, so I did this instead. Once I did that, I could then also log into the keep with the right email/pass and all my data was there. This prompted a login on DA2 as well in the start screen (options I think) which I'd never had before. 

Accounts all synched, log into the keep, log back into the game and sign in with EA email/pass prior to playing = success! All DLC's and extras are there just as before, but now the unauthorized 1.0 message is gone and confirmed everything is active ig. Yay! 

The struggle has been real with this, been trying to get this fixed for an entire dragon age. Not super savvy with tech so some of the fixes I was reading were out of my league. Turns out my issue was quite simple once I figured it out. Thx everyone! 

None of this stuff worked for me on the EA Games Platform. I lost all DLC when transitioned over from Origin. I did not know that until I started playing a couple weeks ago. Suffice to say, I thoroughly explored all solution on other threads. Downloading all DLC and changing files so they show authorized and yada yada which in the end for me really didn't help. If you have the Ultimate edition it gives you all the downloads. But my DLCs wouldn't show up in the game. Even if I logged in, even if I used dragonagekeep. I finally broke down and purchased a product key for the Ultimate Edition. I had to go outside of EAgames to get the key, because I couldnt find it listed on their platform. I'm not really sure why, maybe because I already had dragon age 2. But I can't actually suggest getting keys outside openly, unless you have a very reliable and trusted vendor. But Once I activated the key onto my account. I noticed something significant change.

Now on my EA account it actually says Ultimate Edition. Now a lot more DLC show up in the EA Game information for Dragon Age 2, and now all of the DLC work in the game. So my issue was that I actually didn't own the DLC or the Ultimate Edition. I guess there was a crazy DRM in there somewhere that forced that situation. IDK but in all the time of troubleshooting I probably could of nearly completed the game again, I hope that helps.The sad part is I spent a lot of time working with EA support. They were pointing me to all of the threads online, which I had already went through. But not once did they think, well gee this guy doesn't actually have the correct actual game package. He doesn't own Ultimate Edition. crazy

EA Themselves stated the Dragon Age 2 DLCs are free of charge now, but it wasn't publicised. They said it in an email when giving notice about removing bioware points. They specifically state DA2 DLC as some of the bioware points DLC that are now free of charge.
