EA App/Launcher won't email verification code

I'm trying to play Mass Effect Legendary Edition. Requiring Steam is bad enough but now I discover that the EA App is also required. This of course requires a login. Went through all the setup and now when I launch the game I need to log into EA app (annoying) but the game still won't start. It want a verification code. I click the send button and nothing happens. I click the resend button and still nothing happens. Please note that I have already done this exchange successfully when I created the account. Now nothing. If I can't get this resolved soon I will be removing the game and requesting a refund since it is not working.
