Sims 4 Code Redeemed?

A couple of years ago I got Sims 4 brand new. The game was completely new and I had just opened it. When I tried to download it, it had said the code was invalid/redeemed. Fast forward to now, I've tried to download it again but it still says it's invalid. At the time of trying this, I'm certain this was the only account I had.  I don't want to buy the game again, and I've already got a bundle attached to my account.  What should I do?

    The code can only be redeemed once after that it is tied to the account it was redeemed on. Simply login to that account and it will be in Your Game Library. Clicking it will make it install if it isn't already.

    Thank you for your reply. I'm aware it can only be redeemed once. The thing is I haven't redeemed it before.

    In that case someone else did. You should have it exchanged where you bought it.
