I just got done chatting with EA Help and they had me try something not listed in the 7 pages on this thread:
- Uninstall Origin using "revo uninstaller" (free download)
- Reinstall Origin
- Run as Admin
I also tried unchecking the three options in DA:I and turning off all Origin/cloud/statistics functions within the Origin client. I have reset my password once today already so I guess I'll check back in a week and see if this fixed it. Hope this helps.

Oh wow. There are even more people with the same problem that I have. And yes I've been playing DA:I too.
I just want to finish it without resetting my password all the time.

Hey everyone!
Huge thanks to everyone who's sent screenshots of the emails to me as requested! They were very helpful
Our experts are still investigating the problem. More updates to come.

This has to be resolved as soon as possible. It is a serious and annoying problem, today again it has returned to reset my password after playing DAI.

About a week ago I turned off the connection options in game like @EA_Ataashi suggested and so far my password hasn't been reset again. Can't say with certainty that it's not just taking long to reset once again. I'll let you know if it's still working in a week.

It happened to me maybe a month ago and I thought yeah okay time to change the password. Today it happened again and after changing it, I looked up here because it got suspicious...
- It happened to me after playing DA:I.
- Those options are not turned on for me because I tried to use the workaround for the Golden Nug problem as well- didn't work for that either.
I love that game but I can't use the main purpose of the online connection (the Dragon Age Keep) and now it is getting me password resetting mails too...

Just happened to me again today 4pm EST just to add another data point. I have only played dragon age and 10 minutes of Anthem (bleh)

After a week without getting the email it happened again today, twice. I played like half an hour of DAI and my password got reseted at 05:01 PM CSLT and then at 08:04 PM.
Also, I tried unchecking the three options @EA_Ataashi mentioned before, it didn't work.
