Origin Keys Invalid

[Thijminecraft02]

All Origin keys say "invalid key", it should atleast say that the key is already redeemed like it did yesterday, but all games i try to redeem say "invalid key" I tried redeeming on the account page (code redemption does not load) origin app and ea desktop app but none of them work.

@EA_Leeuw But Steam Support tells me to contact EA Support, and EA Support tells me to contact Steam Support.

Hey @Thijminecraft02,

If you get an "invalid key" error for all game codes that you're trying to redeem either via Origin or our website, it's very well possible that the keys are indeed invalid.

May I ask how you got these game codes?

I would also like to point out that it's not necessary to create three(!) of the same topics on different boards on our forums. This can be seen as Spam.

I got them from steam

@EA_Leeuw I have also tried to redeem a key that i used in the past and instead of saying "this key is already used" it said "invalid key"

[EA_Leeuw]

@Thijminecraft02, I see. Well, Steam should not give you a key that you need to redeem on Origin. May I ask which game this is about?

[Thijminecraft02]

@EA_Leeuw Hey, it is for Crysis, and the drm activation told me my key is invalid repeatedly, so i cannot play.

[EA_Leeuw]

@Thijminecraft02, thanks for the details.

Hmm, alright. Yeah you should not be given a key for an EA game if you purchase them via Steam, it should work the same as if you purchase a game via Origin (so they just should be activated on your account automatically).

So when you launch Crysis, it immediately asks for a key? And is this via Steam or Origin where it asks you for a key?

[Thijminecraft02]

@EA_Leeuw It has a drm that asks for a key not steam or origin itself, i tried redeeming the key on origin and sometimes it gives me an error where is says it is used already and sometimes it lets me select a language for crysis and then gives me an unknown key error. The invalid key error is a cooldown of like 72 hours where if yku redeem 5 origin keys for 72 hours all keys will immediatly say they are invalid.
