I've isolated your the account the game is tied in to, I'll pm you to move on from there.

In the future, try to understand the position of our advisor: he can't let you bluff your way through this (as gorath put pretty accurately) and there isn't much he can do to assert account ownership. So just chill out, and reach out. Standard smile

Your username is an email address if that helps.

 

You will need to speak with EA Support at https://help.ea.com/contact-us as it is account related and no one on here has access to that information.

 

Also, the code you have will be in use by your account so obtaining your product code won't be of much use to you, instead you would want to access your Origin account again.

What you dont understand is that I have tried all 3 of my emails that could possibly work and NONE of them have sim city on there.

From what I read, there was nothing more than CAN do until you can remember the info they need...

 

Maybe it will come to you, did you not write it down somewhere?

 

Sorry dude, I hope you get it sorted out!...

As the 4 email addresses you provided them didn't match the owner of the code they can't give out more details as it would be a security risk. Unfortunately, you will need to re-contact them if you remember what your Origin ID (redrabbit589 on your current Answer HQ account)/Email was.

 

How did you purchase SimCity? If you bought it from Origin you should have an email confirming your purchase in one of your email accounts.

With regard to a more recent RANT in a separate message posted at 12:06 PM, CDT, there is no way for the OP here to have any idea about the quality of EA's official support, since he cannot satisfay the security required to access any account.  The odds in this case favor the possibility of a brazen identity thief attempting a bluff. 

 

I can't imagine any ordinary game player having any need for four separate eMail accounts . .
