Origin basic access gone? [ Edited ]

[Ticklepink68]

Origin basic access revoked plus sims 4 game access if I don't cough up 4.99 per month? I PAID for sims4..I paid for a bundle through ORIGIN. Now you gonna hold my game hostage till I cough up 4.99 per month during this time of crisis? The same goes for Anthem. Shame on Origin! I won't be buying anything digital ever again.

Hey @Ticklepink68. 

That's definitely not the way it's intended to work. If you already own the game you aren't supposed to lose access after your Origin Access membership expires. 

It sounds like there may be an issue that's preventing you from playing the games you've already purchased. When you have a chance please reach out to the EA Help team so they can pull up your account and take a look. 

For more details on how to set up a case with them check out the EA Help website. If you prefer you can also speak with them via Twitter or Facebook as well.
