Once notifications go back up and there's still an issue, a new thread will be required.
@Amondra Me too. And I did an Origin reset also to no avail. I've repaired the game & purged all cache too, and it makes no difference. 🤔
I've been having this problem lately also. When I choose "News", nothing shows up. Tried repairing the game, but it didn't fix the problem. I did notice, though, that when hit the "News" button, I generate the following lastUIException .....

I get the same message each time, but a couple of the numbers change. For example, here's another message with different numbers

Hope this may help someone to figure this out!
For me, it does not load all the way when I first log in, but then, slowly populates, as people do stuff. So, if I have 59 notifications when I log in, I get to see zero of them.
Repairing the game does nothing to help.
@SassiLassi Thank you for that information!! 🤞🏻
