What Sims are you talking about ? Sims 1 or Sims 2 ?
I think you should be able to redeem the Sims 2 code as well. Not sure about Sims 1. Contact Customer support for that.

If live chat is gray, change your country to US and make sure you're on US Business hours. It might also gray because they're very busy. Try later.

Okay, so I found where to look on my external hdd, unfortunately the file I need (in my users folder) isn't there, Windows 7 refuses to open it in regedit and will only open it in wordpad and it only comes out in gibberish code. So my question is if I had regisetered my game on the site (I think I did) how can I get the serial number?

If the things in the links I gave you don't work, I really don't know.
Did you try contacting EA ?

Live chat just means that you'll be talking with a game adviser in real time, like talking with someone on skype. There is no cam envolved. A chat window will open and you'll talk directly to a game advisor.

I tried your "find" a code in the regedit process. And it shows all the expansions ok (with the codes) but it doesn't show worlds? When I look at my account on Sims3 it says I don't have certain worlds that I do. I know I do because I can play in them. Monte Vista is one of them. The website says I don't have it (the icon is dark), so I thought I just needed register it? I bought this one on disc (not Origin) so checked my booklet for the code. It doesn't have the last 4 digits I'm used to seeing on these serial codes. Do the World Pacs have smaller codes? There should be 5 sets of 4 digits each, but I only have 4 sets of 4 digits eacj. So, if I enter this "short" code, it says it's invalid. I sent an email to EA some time ago but never got a response. Can you help me with this?

Got the sims 3 a few days ago , installed it on an old computer , just to test and I didn't knew the code was usable only once ... when I installed the game on my laptop and wanted to play , I had to enter the serial code , wich I did and I told me that the code was wrong ... I understood that I already used it when I was testing the game on my old PC ....
What should I do ? :/ ( The sims3 I got is just the base game , using Origin and it's all in Russian ...should I ask for a new code in the russian support service or I can ask it from the US support service ?
PLEASE HELP !
