I've tried this thing many times over the past weeks, but I can't make it work...
On my site at https://myaccount.ea.com it says they sent me a verification code to a mail address that seems correct, but I receive no code... So what can I do? I don't find any other way to turn on the security feature, but with no code I can't do it.

Thanks for feedback! I sorted the thing, might have been a problem on my mail server. All fine

So...we're supposed to have Origin Basic now? I certainly don't...
Nor me, lol.
My Origin shows it like this:
Also, if I am understanding it correctly, Origin Basic is basically like a "trial" for games anyway, so I'd likely not enjoy that very much. It shows membership as 10 hours limit per game, and, not all games listed in Origin are included in this. Sometimes it takes longer than that to find out if you like a game, (especially in my life, where I am often having to go do something else while playing games). That leaves the timer going, and time lost.
After retrying, it changed to this, with no error, but still not showing the Origin Basic added.
(At least not in any way that's obvious.)
Eh, whatever. I lost my interest since it's a more limited collection (than the Premier membership) of 10-hour trials anyway.
(I guess it would have been good for me if I were interested in a handful of games and wanted to try first. But at this point, I am not going to stress myself wondering why the Basic membership doesn't seem to be there.)
ou’ll get your month of Origin Access Basic starting on or after November 1, 2019. If you don’t get your free* month right away, please wait a few days.

Reading so many things, I forgot about the "few days" part. Thanks for reminding.
(I'm mostly disappointed it's a 10-hour limit, per game membership. I guess they want people mostly going for the 3X$ membership, to remove that time limit. I'm one of those that don't like to give back/give up, games, once I download them. I guess I'm weird, lol. )

I totally missed the 10hr limit so thank you for mentioning that!
I'm the same. It's interesting to try out Access but I prefer having the games & not having to worry about losing them if I don't have membership money for a while. But the discount is handy.
Hey there! Totally normal if you don't have it yet even if you have Login Verification on, may take a few days (as you already quoted from the article).
About the 10 hour trials - keep in mind this is only for the early access to upcoming games. But the games available in The Vault? These, which are those 235 that the table mentions - you can play them as much as you want while you are an Origin Access member. This FAQ may be more clear than that table

Ah,now it's all sorted out - and cleared up - in my head. Thanks for that.
(Silly me not to pay better attention to those charts I screenshot, lol. This is what I get for putting my coffee in fridge after a few sips. It's just one of those days. Especially after last night, aka, Halloween night, or technically around 1:30 AM. I was with my younger son in the kitchen, since he was hungry. I went to put a drink back in fridge. Except there was a HUGE spider that dangled in front of me, right into the fridge, and scared the heck outta me and I haven't been able to think normal since. My son used to make fun of me, and even he was creeped-out. Now I am scared of my fridge, lol. )
Anyway, now it's all cleared up for me. Thanks to those that helped.

Glad to hear!
And... ehhh I'd say a spider sounds on topic for Halloween night but spiders at 1:30 AM are no joke!

Thank you so much for clearing up that 10 hour thing, I was starting to think it wasn't actually worth it...
@LatteCrab I wanted to hit like on your reply there but the whole spider thing is making my brain refuse to "like" anything At least the timing was on point for Halloween, I guess.
It's the 3rd. I would expect to have received it by now, I was hoping to try out The Sims 3...
Edit: Also, can we play Vault games on a Mac? I tried to join a while back but it said I could only use the game on a device that runs Windows. This seems pretty unfair to me, as I don't own any Microsoft products.
@nerdfashion 'fraid it's Windows only.
Even so, if you updated to Catalina on your Mac, TS3 wouldn't work right now (it's not 64bit until they roll out the compatible version)

Have a great Simming/game weekend!
