So, I finally got the bonus content. I had a friendly chat with the German EA Help Desk. I told them the problem and they sent me the content directly to my account. After starting the game, it was installed.
For German players who probably also bought the pack at Saturn/Mediamarkt, open this EA site and follow the instructions: https://help.ea.com/de/contact-us/

I'm talking with them now too. But we seem to be going in circles they said to wait, then said you don't have the bonus content added.

After contacting EA, I received the package. Game purchased in a box (UK).
