Sims hidden springs nowhere to be found! PLEASE HELP!

Ok, so i bought the sims 3 Hidden Springs through the origin thing that you get the games on and I can't find it on my games lise, it is as if I never purchased it. And I have been charged not once but twice on the credit card bill for the game but cant play it as it is not there to be downloaded. I have tried to get in touch with EA games but have had no luck through there facebook page which seemed to be the only way to contact them being from Ireland, but now after finding this I'm hoping for some help/answers. HELP! Thanks in advance.

Kate.

    Hi katemf1992!

    go to thesims3.com website.
    Log-in to your account or sign up for a new account if you do not have one yet.
    Go to the Hidden Springs world page on The Sims 3 Store: http://store.thesims3.com/hiddenSprings (The "S" must be capitalized)
    Select the Redeem Code button and enter the serial key that came with the product.
    Upon success, go to the Purchase History. The link to download the world will be available.

    Please contact EA if you require anymore assistance here >> https://help.ea.com/contact-us

    None of the contect options will work for me when I go to that page. And also I have no code to redeem it as I was not given one and have no email with one on it either, it is not showing on my origin purchased games list even though I have paid for this twice, which is 40 euro. I'm not sure where to go from here ...

    Were you able to get this resolved? I bought the physical copy of the cd, attempted to redeem the code online, it said that it took it, and now it's not showing up anywhere so that I can download it. I've tried using the physical copy of the disk, but the code has already been used and is invalid. Spoke to an origin tech support, they were not able to resolve my problem.

  • Same thing happened to me.  Bought Hidden Springs thru Origin, it is NO where to be found.  Getting a little frustrated as this was 4 days ago.  Its not on my sims3 account, its not on origin, its not in an email.  Can't enter a code cause I bought the digital file.  Plus have messaged them twice now, still NO response!  I am about to open up a dispute on paypal to get my money back, this is crap!
