Titanfall Beta now taking applications, the thread of begging and whining

Guess it's time to take my painkillers and go to bed. I kept hoping my email was just late like it usually is.

Maybe this will get me to finish some of my games on Origin that I forgot about though like Crysis 3.
 
Vikas told me they were getting a lot of the same requests, but then in my "thank you for contacting EA support services" email I got this:

This new code has been issued against your open case. The issued code is Bxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxX.

When I signed up for Beta I selected Xbox 1, not sure if the code works for both.

Probably doesn't, but hey, that means someone who can use it gets a shot then. Wish I could have picked up the Xbox One at Costco yesterday since it was $20 cheaper, but moving is expensive and sort of need TV and an internet connection to use the box.

I just got an email saying the case is closed with nothing in it. Damn it.

Hoping for a better rep this time.
 
Chat support worked for me. I didn't make a BS claim about already used code, I explained that the Expertzone MS site for retailers is having issues. When I get my Xbone code emailed I will give it away on here.

Everyone exploited it and people with real issues with the codes are getting the short end of the stick. I want an Xbox One code too, but I don't want to ruin anyone else opportunity to acquire it.
 
I find it really funny that this is all for a beta. think about that for a minute. no wonder they are the worst company in America.

That's the 15% discount code they give you at the end of every support chat.

It's sort of crazy how Origin required security questions and such to confirm our identities, but the legitimate people are still getting the shaft.

Good luck though, and see if you can ask if confirming your Origin identity to your confirmation email will help. Perhaps forwarding the email to the reps themselves? Just see what it would take to prove you're just needing your code switched out.
 
Fairest way I could think of giving this away guys, have at it. This key is for XBOX ONE. Goodluck!

I talked to a guy named Rishi. Told him about my story with SimCity (preordered, could hardly play at launch, shelved it, came back to it and it and have stability issues due to switchable graphics card in my laptop. Asked if it was too late for a refund, he said yes, then I asked if I could just get a Titanfall key instead, here is what he said...

you How bout a Titanfall key? I signed up on the website, but I haven't received a key. I got the day off tomorrow...

Rishi I would request you to please apply for the beta version on the titanfall official site and you will be emailed a key to access that.

Rishi You will receive the email very soon.

you For sure?

Rishi Yes.

Been about 10 minutes, so we'll see in the morning I guess. Hope he wasn't bullshitting me. If I don't get one, I guess I can contact them again and show the next person that transcript and hope they fix it.

He was totally BSing you.
 
So, uh. Based on the feeding frenzy that has been getting beta codes... Do you guys think this stands a chance to sell well? LOL
 
Wow I redeemed the first one, it went through. I hit confirm and it said "something went wrong"


I think im going to contact EA

That happened to me earlier. Actually said I was redeeming Titanfall beta, then errored. Since then I was faster than the winner of atleast two other twitter giveaways but got ignored, and have wasted a whole bunch of time for nothing.

Fun night!

You need to verify employment to use that method, right?

There was a workaround using Walmart(I did this for Gears 3) but I can't get it to work now. I took the quiz and watched the video but got nothing.
