    Why is online login unavailable on Origin? If I'm not connected to the internet then I just can't log in to play The Sims. I can't always connect to the internet. @OriginInsider @EA @EAHelp

    @OriginInsider Why are your friends lists not working? Can't play Apex with my friends if they don't show up at all... Whack.

  • alphaomegatrice Alpha Omega *****🏳️‍🌈🖤💜🤍 (@alphaomegatrice) reported

    @OriginInsider I’m having trouble with my origin account and games…all of my previous families were deleted and now the houses aren’t showing up and now it’s having trouble downloading to my laptop is there some sort of outage or something?

  • lndigoJinx (@lndigoJinx) reported

    @OriginInsider Hey since You service is setup for Microsoft one drive, especially @TheSims -4... why not have it set to automatically delete thumbnails, etc. from the gallery from one drive, & dropbox?!? It's annoying to have to tell it to delete 100s of files so often!

  • Garbaghe Just an Email (@Garbaghe) reported

    @OriginInsider Why is Origin trying to get me to update my store to a country in Europe? Fix your sh*t! US customers being only given a choice to use an EU store is wrong, especially when your regional preference is United States.
