EA Store

Seriously whats the deal with the EA store, have they always been so fraudulent in their ways, I am still waiting for my beta key to arrive in my inbox.

I pre-ordered the digital download from the site, and it said it includes "open beta and the headstart". Are they even going to send these keys out, there isn't even a place for me to check my order, all i have is the conformation email showing the order. I must have emailed them 20 times now, and have received 3 replies of absolute nonsense. I am very pissed off.

    on the EA site they are advertising the open beta keys, you clcik the link and it sends you to fileplay..so basically EA are giving out the open beta keys to first come first serve..some people have ordered the game on the site to get open beta and EA give them out for free..pathetic.

    Not being a little impatient are we?

    If you carefully read the email they sent you it tells you how to DL the digital DL when its ready.

    "Go to http://www.eastore.com and click on the Customer Service link. You may also find other helpful information on this page.

    Look up your order either through “View recent order history and purchase details” link at the top of the page.

    DOWNLOADABLE PRODUCTS

    Downloadable products may be accessed by looking up your order. When the order summary appears, click on the Download link next to the product name."

    However, if you ordered this today like I did it will probably still say the order status is "submitted" because today its the weekend and I am guessing they have to wait for your CC to clear, which will most likely be on Monday.

    Also, if you sent them 20 emails in a day you need to chill. The only thing that will do is maybe make them angry and then your order may "sccidentally" get screwed up. It is never helpful to throw a tantrum, it just makes things worse. I know if I worked in their customer service department and I had some idiot sending me 20 emails in one day I would accidentally delete their order for being a jerk.

    As far as them giving out OB keys on their website, I have been checking it and have not seen any OB key offered on either the Mythic or EA sites, so I have no idea what you are talking about then.

    But seriously, chill out and have a little patience, its just another game after all.

    so easy to say chill but no offense, what gets you're goat up?, maybe not the same as the Op

     

    As for EA and OB keys, they state that you will recieve the keys 3-10 BUSINES days from date of purchase, so yea 10 days will be after the OB finishes, my advice is get a refund and go to D2DUK, you get all information and OB key in less than 5 minutes.

    if this is impatience having to wait UP TO 10 business days from one site or less than 5 miuns from another, I think you must be smoking to be so chilled or this game doesnt really bother you but maybe you're fault is you beat small dogs to stay so chilled ;)

    It takes 3 - 10 days.  I got mine on the 4th.

     

    I don't see why you should complain...why did you wait so long to pre-order?  If you wanted a beta key earlier you should have ordered it earlier.

     

    Read the fine print too.  If you knew D2D would have given it to you in 5 mintues, why did you go with EAstore?

     

    Sounds like you weren't thinking.

    so you come here and tell me to be patient then say you saw no open beta key being offered...

    take a look here, you seem to know the ins and abouts of the EA store and yet you couldnt see the warhammer online banner saying open beta..or you stupoid or just like to flame people

    http://eastore.ea.com/store/eaemea/DisplayHomePage&SiteID=eaemea&Locale=en_IE

    maybe that will make it clearer to you. there is no place to check your order.

    Ignore , plenty of idiots with keyboards.

    I hope you recieve you're key in time, I had to cancel my EA nad redo D2D to make sure

  • ronan32ronan32 Member Posts: 1,418

    just ordered from direct2drive.co.uk and received my key 30 seconds later..i have been waiting 10 days and nothing from EA. I will never order anything from EA again.

  • xcursedmoonxxcursedmoonx Member Posts: 22

    Quick question, I have been trying to order one from D2D.com but every time I placed an order it says unable to complete your transaction. Ive tried with 3 different credit cards with money on them.

    So I was wondering if I am in the US is it possible to buy the game from their UK D2D.com site?

    Also do anyone knows another other website that sells WAR that email the OB codes/key the same day? lol Definitely not EA.

    Thanks in advanced!

    if you buy from D2Duk then you get a Uk OB key, still not sure if you can play on Uk servers from the US or visa versa atm.

    As for other supliers check the main Warmmer site for a list of premium suppliers from the buynow link

  • xcursedmoonxxcursedmoonx Member Posts: 22

    Thanks for the advice Peteski, I just wanted to know which of the premium suppliers are reliable. I mean EA is "technically" one of them but lol i had to cancel mine after ordering 2 weeks ago and still had no key.  I have been reading some positive feedback from D2D.com but I think it's having problems because Ive tried purchasing three times with three different credit cards but it kept saying unable to complete transaction.

    Bestbuy.com? Amazon.com? or know any other sites that sends the keys the same day?
