Where do I enter my Online Pass Code?

[razorback44]

Can someone tell me where in the world I am supposed to enter my Online Pass ID #. Normally in the past it has prompted me to enter it when I tried to get online for OD's or Lobby play the first time but this time I was able to jump in and create a test OD and play a game no problem and then I played a ranked quick match without ever being prompted to enter a code.

However, when I go into Origin account settings it says at the bottom that my online pass is inactive. I'm very confused here. Can anyone help me out?

They may not have turned it on yet.

I thought you had to insert the password into XBL/PSN?

I just had the same problem pop up, it won't let me online. I'm chatting tech rep right now

I've seen others suggest to redeem it in the PSN store itself and should work. For whatever reason it doesn't appear to be prompting you like it should.

I was prompted saying I wasn't permitted to use an Online Pass. Which is weird.

[Jeremy]

OK, you have to enter the pass code from the console in Account Management > Redeem Code. Couldn't you do that in-game last year?

Now that is odd.

I think I will hold off for a bit and then try what G suggested if it isn't turned on the way it used to be.

[Kingpin32]

I was able to do it in the PSN store. Now if it says I still can't get online, then we may have some issues.

[Kingpin32]

It looks like that worked.

account management- redeem code...i'm glad LOL, I thought i would be alone in this and mocked for my lack of internet savvy.

that said, EA's online pass idea is annoying.

Well, get used to it, because it's never going away. Game companies everywhere are doing it now these days.

:D I thought the same thing as well. I played a few games and tried to figure it out before I posted.

And that way worked for me as well. My online pass status is now enabled.

Thanks Jeremy!

No problem. I chatted with Tech Support like a moron so you guys didn't have to. ;)

i'm not unaware of that. It depends on whomever/company... I bought black ops used, loaded disc, boom,done, good times online.....sort of :D.

I have no clue what the hell you folks talking about. I just fired up the game for the first time, and before I can even get to the menus, I had the usual, typical pop-up about registering my online pass with the usual options to redeem code, purchase online pass for 800 MSP, more info about the pass and Season Ticket, etc. Redeemed it in the game and I'm all set.

Maybe it was only a PS3 issue?

[sl8b]

What about the folks that bought the game from PSN store? Do they email the pass ID, or is it built in since you got it from the network?

I just deleted the early release and the tuning update...rebooted the game and I got the prompt to enter...cake.

I got prompted this evening as well without deleting anything... I think EA just fixed the glitch so you won't be receiving a paycheck anymore.

[JBHuskers]

I didn't delete anything. Wasn't prompted when I logged on last night at 6pm, but when I came back on around 9pm, I was prompted.

[SmoothPancakes]

Again no idea what you guys are talking about. Just entered the game, never got prompted a thing, got in just like normal.

When trying to download the rosters I was asked to punch in the code.
