  • LMXAB3KS pogchamp (@LMXAB3KS) reported

    @OriginInsider please fix your app i can not reset my password i just want to play sims 4 i dont want anything else

  • punzirudu curmudgeon (@punzirudu) reported

    @HekatonMike @OriginInsider Use Twitter. 4 chats and 2 phone calls, nothing at all. Twitter DMs got it working on about 45 mins. The fix is really unacceptable for a production web app, but they helped. MFA QR codes generated aren't right but - at least got access to what I needed to keep using it

  • itssamlou_ 🦋 Sam 🦋 (@itssamlou_) reported

    @OriginInsider I think origin has a glitch I’ve signed in and it just won’t load it’s been like this for days! And when it eventually loads It’s also making my sims 4 glitch massively to the point where it’s unplayable @TheSims

  • draghoen rahrah (@draghoen) reported

    when is @OriginInsider @EA @TheSims going to fix missing open water options and terrain brush glitch in #thesims3 64bit for mac????

  • cindyloowhovian Perpetual Kohai (@cindyloowhovian) reported

    My trivial issue today is that I wish I hadn't spent $20 on .@TheSims Wedding Stories. The build-buy & CAS aren't enough to make up for the crummy gameplay, & if I knew I could get a refund & return the pack to .@OriginInsider I would.

  • yerweepalplank Plankhausen (@yerweepalplank) reported

    @OriginInsider customer service could only be worse if one of their intellectually challenged customer service agents came to my front door and smacked me in the mouth.

    Idk if anyone at @OriginInsider or EA is aware of this but just a heads up anyone trying to buy packs on origin through the Mobile origin website it won’t let you sign in so just use a computer instead and you should be fine
