@coolgirl1441 Not an EA advisor, but as a sims fan I understand your frustration. what issue(s) are you having when installing the sims 3 expansion packs ?
- 7 months ago@SharpenedRazors Since I bought the packs so long ago, I misplaced the installation codes. I’m trying to install them on my new computer. I figured it would be easy for EA to provide me with new codes since I have proof of purchase, but since it was either so long ago or for some other reason, the EA advisors insisted they cannot find proof on their end. That’s why I attempted to send photos over as attachments as a way to verify I’m not trying to steal from them, but obviously they didn’t listen. I don’t think it’s an issue any advisor or fan could solve unfortunately, and I tried escalating the issue in attempts to talk to someone on the EA team, but that is apparently not an option. Many years ago I was able to call EA support for a similar problem that they helped me resolve, but I think the new support format has put a wrench in communication. Thank you for responding though!
- SharpenedRazors7 months agoSeasoned Veteran@coolgirl1441 While I don't work for EA, I have customer service experience and to play devils advocate I have a feeling that this is most likely due policy rather than advisors being unhelpful.
Since you already exhausted resources I recommend to contact them again, and respectfully ask to submit a formal complaint, it may not change the outcome of the case but its worth a try.
Also check your other emails / EA accounts, maybe the code was redeemed in a different account.
Wish you the best and I hope that EA sees your feedback and that you can get help with this issue somehow. :-) - puzzlezaddict7 months agoHero+
@coolgirl1441 Do you have access to a computer where Sims 3 was previously installed? If so, you might be able to find the codes there. Here's how:
