    Redeem online code not working!


    Hey guys, I just received my Madden NFL 12 game today, and I'm loving it so far, I really think it is much better than last years'. However I'm having trouble to register it online. When I try to put the online code that's in the game, it gives an error and says it is invalid. I'm from Portugal, and googled it, and found that some european guys are having the same problem. Do you guys know what's happening, or have you experienced the same thing?

            Well, unfortunately it didn't work. I sure hope it is a bug they're trying to fix!

              I had that problem and im from New Zealand. I contacted EA support and was able to have a "live chat" with a support team member that helped me. I had to take a photo of my unique code and send him the picture and from there, we got it done. took about 5-10 minutes.

                There's no bug, your code just doesn't work.

                  Really? Did you contact them by mail or something?

                    Make sure u are using the right field. I was entering my code in the wrong place.

                      Im from Aust and bought the game from Hong Kong, the only way I got mine to work and would and will work is to create a Hong Kong account and use that to sign in then get it to go.

                      now is UK different to the Euro version? you might need to create a UK account if you bought the UK version

                        Re: Redeem online code not working!

                        ok guys, so after about 2 hours talking with the EA guys, the problem was finally resolved. I had to create a new PSN ID with an uk account, because the game was bought in England, and then put the redeem code. When I loaded the game, it asked for me to register the game in an EA account, so I registered it in the account I already had, so that I can play online with my original PSN account. Hope you guys understood what I just said, my english is a bit messy sometimes . Thanks to everyone that answered to my post, you were helpful in many ways, sure hope this thread may be useful for others.

                        Peace, and hope I can play some of you online, however, go easy on me , because it's the first year i'm playing online, despite playing madden since the start of the game!!!
