Burnout won't save progress

[TwentieStar]

My game (burnout paradise the ultimate box, originally from humble bundle) just won't save the progress.

I had the game originally on steam, now I managed to transfer it to Origin. Uninstalled, reinstaled, everything, but everytime I start the game there is just 0 progress. It acts like it is the first time, no matter how much I played before. I don't get it, I'd understand if the cloud/connection was somehow broken, but it's not even saving localy??
Does anyone have this issue or know how to fix this, pretty please?

Are you ending your game by hitting "Esc>F1>F1>F1>Save and Quit>OK"? That works for me.
