Re: Disappointed with lack of support for older games in Origin

@EA_Leeuw@EA_LeeuwHI and thanks for replying to my post. You've nailed my plight.

Back in 2015 I bought physical/retail 10th Anniversary MOH 7 CD pack. Trying to register the keys on Origin this happened:
MOH Allied Assault - Valid
Spearhead expansion pack - Invalid key
Breakthrough expansion pack - Invalid key
MOH Airborne- Invalid key
MOH Pacific Assault Directors Edition - Valid but not Directors Edn
After spending an hour each with 3 different EA customer service support reps I'm told that there is nothing that can be done, (even though they all came in the same pack). One guy eluded that 3 of the keys may have been issued prior to Origins data base being compiled hence why the keys couldn't be found. Even so, I was told my case couldn't be escalated irrespective that the games/packs are still being sold digitally.
Best advice to far was to install them via CD if I want to play.. thing is, it's 2022 and my PC doesn't have a disc drive. Even if it did these CDs, cases and keys I'm lugging around are degrading... That and EA wants it's client base to move to Origin but isn't accounting for it's player base with 'sunset' titles.

    @Yamunsa, thanks for the info. Just a question; are that all the games that you tried to redeem?
  • Hey, @EA_Leeuw is there anyone in customer service that frequents the forums who would like to chat with me I'd be more than willing to run through the issues with them
