    @funnerd10 @OriginInsider I gave up and switched to EA Desktop lol. It’s in Beta mode but so far I haven’t had any issues! Except once it got stuck “updating” a game but when I restarted my computer it was fixed.

    @OriginInsider Thank you for ruining my day! I bought It takes Two but can’t play it on steam because your login is forever having technical issues! And if you don’t want new registration just close your site instead of playing us with your retarded verification! Go d*e with your f*cking dices!

    Hey fellow simmers, is anyone else having problems loading up origin lately? It just stays in a forever loading screen and I’ve tried some stuff to fix it, it was fixed and now it won’t work again. Any ideas on how I can still play the sims? #origin #sims4 #help @OriginInsider

  • emlaurenbrewin Emily Lauren Brewin (@emlaurenbrewin) reported

    Can @EAHelp @OriginInsider PLEASE fix the 'log in unavailable' issue on the website because I desperately need the new @TheSims pack and it doesn't work on the Origin app :'(

  • voicingviews1 voicingviews (@voicingviews1) reported

    @OriginInsider Have tried to signup for EA Games 10 times and consistently get a message that there is error or 'Not a good time' Poor answer without an indication when to try again. Soon is not an answer, it is a cop-out.

  • DavidEastwickUK David Eastwick aka TheDaveStream (@DavidEastwickUK) reported

    Tried adding @OriginInsider launcher to steam as per the videos for Fifa....@Biomutant freezes when I launch it that way. My xbox pad is broken all I want to do is play using my ps5 pad (same as i do for steam games) its 2021 why is there no support on origin for ps4/5 pads?????

  • BrianVitesse ⎛⎝Brian⎠⎞ (@BrianVitesse) reported

    @EAHelp @OriginInsider Ive got a little problem here. When I try to log into my Origin account I get the error “Your EA credentials have expired and need to be updated. Please reset your password.” So I click reset password but its taken me to an error page?

  • hiiighclass_ erica abi wright (@hiiighclass_) reported

    @OriginInsider @EAHelp your customer service people just hung up on me so thanks for that.

  • funnerd10 Himanka Parashar (@funnerd10) reported

    @aliceandthehare @OriginInsider Found any fix?

  • nanohard_ nanohard (@nanohard_) reported

    Just watched someone fail reCaptchas for 10 minutes on @OriginInsider then finally get denied access for being a bot. If you're looking give your programmers the same kind of service, just have someone replace all the ASCII "a"s with cyrillic "a"s in the code.

  • Peter201382 Peter Bentson (@Peter201382) reported

    @OriginInsider Keep getting Error 404 when trying to access the new #Sims4 gamepack. I’m sure it due to high traffic. But wanted error to be noticed.

  • bunnymaknaee b- (@bunnymaknaee) reported

    @OriginInsider I’m trying to redeem a code on origin on browser and it won’t let me log in. I’m really upset because I wasted my money. So maybe fix your website.

  • meerwill_ 🌸💕✨ (@meerwill_) reported from Chester, Pennsylvania

    @OriginInsider how long until i can login ? I’ve been trying all day

  • MichLovesJensen Mich 🌸 (@MichLovesJensen) reported

    @EAHelp @OriginInsider It worked by now but I have new problems now with the game. Someone from ea answer hq is trying to help me :)

  • BryttniTV Bryttni the Madtagonist🏳️‍🌈 (@BryttniTV) reported

    Dear @OriginInsider please fix your stuff because this is frustrating. My friend couldn't get DS3 to work through steam and now I can't get my DS3's audio to work at all. I just wanted to do a co op stream with friends and this is unplayable.

    Anyone else having trouble logging into #Origin? @OriginInsider

  • DonnaM3107 donna stone (@DonnaM3107) reported

    @OriginInsider have you managed a fix for the codes needed to log into tapped out yet? I can't even access the site. I turned off two factor authentificatuon, yet still need the code?

  • Anticleric Blair Renaud💮 (@Anticleric) reported

    @OriginInsider I cant login to Origin. Password not accepted. Reset password link goes to "oops" page. Managed to get to "send me a password reset". The email isnt coming. What's the deal?

  • mmarc1n mmarc1n 🥃🎮 *****_*** (@mmarc1n) reported

    @Mcfcjenson @HalilSoyletmez @OriginInsider I have a solution for you problem, delete this garbage and download you game from pirate bay, its simpler and no spyware from EA on your PC. (Im assuming you already have paid for a game you cant play)

  • _Maxx_Effect_ Max (@_Maxx_Effect_) reported

    @EAHelp @OriginInsider Im having issues viewing my game library. Keeps saying its empty even though I KNOW it isnt. Its been happening since the recent update to Origin. Please help

  • KENAXION RE-AXION (@KENAXION) reported

    @OriginInsider your website is garbage. You put me on a pay wall on your garbage EA Desktop to download a game when I already have Game Pass. I have to get a subscription for a service I already have. You take my money now I can't login in to cancel the subscription. ****. You.

  • samjwilk29 Samantha (@samjwilk29) reported

    Hey @OriginInsider @EA what is the actual purpose of doing a thousand captchas to sign in and play the freaking Sims? Every time? On the same computer I play on constantly? #ItsReallyFuckingAnnoying #PleaseStop

  • aliceandthehare Alice Liddell (@aliceandthehare) reported

    @OriginInsider Haven’t been able to use your stupid launcher for a week. Runs extremely slow every time I open it. To the point where I can’t play the games I bought. Fix this!!!
