    @OriginInsider Hey! I need help. There seams to be no way of lifting a request of an error in your platform sounds absurd. I logged on to my account and suddenly the library is empty, my contact list is empty and i cant get back the games i had. User name “alexswat12”. Please help!

  • GARRETTCFC Lee Garrett (@GARRETTCFC) reported from Spelthorne District, England

    @OriginInsider hi i am trying to login to the Simpson’s tapped out game, but since the last update it has stopped it working. If it does start working again, I put the wrong email address when I started the game but haven’t had a problem but if I need a code it will be a problem

  • brokeahhb BrokeAhhB (@brokeahhb) reported

    @MAMA_Jan3 @TheSims This is why you keep your order confirmation emails lol they don't really remove purchased items from your account for no reason and that sounds more like @OriginInsider issue not Sims

  • Munken861 Munken86 (@Munken861) reported

    @OriginInsider Fix your login services. Origin is the 2nd worst game launcher to exist. only beaten by Uplay. Fix your ****, its impossible to connect at most times. amateurs

  • AndrewFrisina1 FeaRei (@AndrewFrisina1) reported

    @KuniStreams @OriginInsider @EAHelp I've already had too many problems with Origin through Mirror's Edge Catalyst. It's so. So garbage. The Origin Subreddit is often filled with people having issues with it. I've also had issues with Microsoft games that aren't meant to be played via Steam.

  • cycoldment CyCo L. DmenT (@cycoldment) reported

    Still can't login, can't buy games...@OriginInsider @EA @EAHelp wanna buy games during your sale, but can't log in to do so #OriginGames #EA

  • JaySto17 Jay (@JaySto17) reported

    @OriginInsider your service is trash

  • Crosimmer Crosimmer (@Crosimmer) reported

    @tarkussc4 @EAPlay @OriginInsider That's something I've been reading up on recently after seeing someone else post the issue. I guess that answers my question on why my game is fully patched.

  • jaydlucas jamie daniel lucas (@jaydlucas) reported

    @EA @EAHelp @OriginInsider any idea when your flawed verification codes issue will be fixed? The lack of support from your customer service is pathetic, it's been going on for weeks

  • samiavalos24 Sami (@samiavalos24) reported

  • leesuh22 Allisa Woo (@leesuh22) reported

    @OriginInsider Can't login to Origin because my IP is blocked all of a sudden. Getting the "Looks like we're having technical difficulties" error. Lots of posts about this on the internet but no proper resolution from your end. This issue isn't officially being acknowledged.

  • yumlordo J. Yum (@yumlordo) reported

    @EA what is the point of @OriginInsider ? The service blows and now I can't play single-player games already downloaded to my PC offline?

  • NavIsReborn Navarone (@NavIsReborn) reported

    @OriginInsider Can you fix your ******* Captcha? "Select all buses" THERE IS LITERALLY NO BUSES. LET ME LOG INTO MY ACCOUNT THAT IVE SPENT MONEY ON

  • Draelon Thomas Waldrop (@Draelon) reported

    @OriginInsider for the love of all that is holy, if you’re going to force me to use your app when I buy games on Steam, can You at least add an offline mode? I live in the country and have constant connection issues. When I drop, I can’t open your games. Hell.

  • TheHellsage Edward Finer (@TheHellsage) reported

    @OriginInsider @EAHelp So @knockoutcity is a ton of fun, but man, y'all really have some pressing issues with how this game handles network sync between players. Way too many desync events when dodgeballs are thrown or contact players.

  • htte_jonas Jonas Hütte (@htte_jonas) reported

    @EA @OriginInsider @XboxGamePass I cant play the EA Play Games I get through my Xbox Game Pass properly because of issues between EA Desktop and Origin. EA Desktop wont connect to multiplayer servers in multiple Games and Origin wont detect my EA Play status at all.

    can u fix loba pls, im tired of geting stuck in some kind of barrel @OriginInsider

  • brokeahhb BrokeAhhB (@brokeahhb) reported

    @MAMA_Jan3 @TheSims @OriginInsider There should be an option on their site to open a live chat and then they’ll be able to assist you further. I’d login to your account and go to your purchase history to show proof you already bought them.

  • Seroled90 Seroled (@Seroled90) reported
