I'm editing this answer because I upgraded to Win10 tonight on my second PC and got this error.  The way I corrected it was I logged out of Origin, logged back in and then right clicked and repaired BF3.  After the repair was completed I logged into Battlelog and played a game without incident.

Hmm that is weird, then I do recommend speaking with  a game advisor to see if something's changes on the back end with your account entitlements.  

You can reach a game advisor here:  https://help.ea.com/contact-us click on the orange button on the right to start a new case, follow the instructions and when you are presented with a contact method I recommend that you use the telephone option and the “call me” option so you don't have to stay on hold for a long time. The call back feature available to North America, Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Russia, Spain, Sweden, Slovakia, Switzerland, and the UK.

already been through all that, they couldn't help me either, it would appear EA has well and truly done me over.... this is why no one likes origin.
