    Will it be available on Amazon tomorrow? I have a Visa gift card I want to use but read I would either have to get it off Amazon or use PayPal. Anyone know anything about this?

      dunno. they usually put them up on amazon but for the last release (bowling night) it took them several days to.
      you should be able to use a visa gift card with origin though
      that's how i've bought all of my packs

      I use the vanilla ones but I think they should all work :o
      I know that some brands don't work on origin, but I haven't had an issue with visa.

      I use amazon too because I always have amazon gift cards.

      The stuff packs are usually there after a few days
      Vampires was on there the same day
      EPs are on there for preorder
      Other Gps took a few hours- a day

      Not on Amazon U.S. yet either. Bowling Night took about a week to show up there. I used PayPal and just bought from thesims.com for both.

      I hope its on there today. I have nothing to do today and this is the perfect time for me to really get into it.

      Does anyone know who I can ask for information about when it'll be on amazon?

      I just sent Amazon's customer service an e-mail and I should get a response within 12 hours.

      I wonder if origin/ EA delay it on other sites that sell them so they can make more money first, I mean I know they still make money from the other sites, just wondering if they lose a little through other sites. It would make sense in why they delay it there.

      I buy from amazon and always have to wait. :'(

      After I e-mailed then I decided to wait a few days before I call Amazon. I'll give them a week. @Pallypoo They probably do lose a little profit through other sits, you brought up a good point. Thanks for your comment! How long do you usually have to wait for a gamepack?

      Just out of curiosity, how does it work ordering through Amazon? I've never done it that way. Always using the EA cards. Does it email the game code to you?

      @ponderosa Yes, the game code is e-mailed to you in a matter of seconds.
    • friendlysimmersfriendlysimmers Posts: 7,545 Member
      well would be better off if they sold the gamepack codes in regular stores

      @ponderosa

      You can also set up instant access and once you purchase a pack it will begin loading into Origin as soon as you open it. You just have to make sure the pack title has the words instant access in parenthesis next to it. For example:

      Bowling Night Stuff (instant access)

      Then when you complete your purchase it will prompt you to link your Origin account by entering your email address and your Origin password. You should only have to do this once, unless you change your email or password. Otherwise the 2 accounts will be linked and your purchases will immediately download into Origin as soon as you open it. It's great, except when it takes them days to put the pack up after initial release.

      @drjmoow I can't remember for sure. I had to wait to buy the older ones. I didn't have money when they first came out. With the exception of Dine Out. I think I bought it through Gamestop, because I couldn't wait. I didn't get Vampires.

      I am thinking a couple of days maybe.(?) You might be able to do a search on SimsVIP. They always announce when stuff comes out at amazon.

      I contacted customer service for EA and they said that they usually put it up in a few hours, but that they don't have a precise time nor date.

      Being a Amazon buyer is always like this. I only hope it's on there today

      Has anybody heard when it will be on Amazon?
    • Peapond69Peapond69 Posts: 74 Member
      I checked. I did a customer service chat. According to the chat agent, there is no record of it as a product on their website or as an upcoming release. So I was advised to check back daily. So really no new information. I think I'll start asking for Origin gift cards instead of Amazon gift cards.

      I am thinking (hoping) maybe Friday. If not, it was a week before the bowling stuff pack showed up there, so maybe Tuesday. :(

      I am hoping for the weekend as I would love to discipline these tantrum toddlers I have. It would be perfect for a clingy or mean toddler. Come on Amazon please release it.
