Guys, does EA have anymore information on this issue? We are going on a week now with no resolution and we have tried everything that we have found in every thread relating to this topic. Are you guys getting close or at least have an idea of what the issue is?

In the following thread several users managed to get it working using a workaround:

Right click Origin,

Properties,

Compatibility,

Tick "Run this program in compatibility mode for:"

then click Windows Vista,

hit Apply and ok,

Completely restart Origin,

Walla

Why should we be using workarounds Tom? Why cant you guys just sort the issue?

I have found my friend and the friend request is sent now, but no email has been received or notification by them.

If this wasn't ready top be released then why release it. EA is never be great cause you only want money and cross progression should be a thing. Its not that hard

Hey all, I'm locking this thread as it is quite old.

I tested this in my account and not seeing any issues, as such this is most likely system or network related. Can you can try using a different network to see if you see the same issue, I have seen this issue pop up as a result of a router/ISP configuration.
