Star Wars Battlefront II Beta code begging thread

Apparently amazon canada isn't giving out codes and customer service is well next to no help by giving an order placed code...so my folly of a preorder from them leading to such an event (when it worked for Battlefront 1 and Battlefield 1), anybody got an Xbox NA code?

XXOOXXOO

Yep! For the uninitiated, here's how you get better code for PS4, XB1 or PC via EA Help/Support.

1. Click here: https://help.ea.com/en/contact-us/?...egory=codes-and-promotions&issue=invalid-code

It should select Battlefront II for PS4 with "Invalid code" issue. Change platform to PC or XB1 if that's what you desire.

MAKE SURE IT SAYS "INVALID CODE". That's the only way I can guarantee they'll give you instant code. Also make sure you're picking the correct region (e.g. North America, Europe, etc).

2. Login with PSN/XBL/Origin

3. Whatever email address you see is the one it'll send the email to. Doesn't matter if you change it. Check your EA account email, first and foremost.

4. Send a generic email about beta key. Here's mine:



5. Send. Make sure all forms are filled. No need to send an attachment.

6. Check email for instant code. This is an automated process with zero human interaction. Best way to tell you received the code is if the ticket is instantly "CLOSED". Check here: https://help.ea.com/ca/my-cases/

7. Didn't receive a code in 5 minutes? Is the support page stuck in "loading" loop? Send another ticket. Repeat until you get it.

Dude. I love you. Got a code instantly haha, thank you!

Having the same problem here...
 
EA support method worked for me too a few minutes ago. If the spinning icon takes more than a minute or two, just refresh and try again.

EA method doesn't work for me. They sent me an email saying a game advisor would contact me shortly.

Keep trying. I had to do it four times. When it works you immediately get 2 emails. One saying a game advisor would contact me and the other one is a code for the beta. Good luck!

Hey last chance but: my EA account email is old and they wont let me verify any of my current emails - could someone try the trick to get me a PS4 NA code? I would be super appreciative!

I pre-ordered Star Wars Battlefront II, may I be granted the beta key? Thanks!"

This worked for me after I was finally able to get it to submit. EA's support page is a bit funky.
 
Has anyone got a spare PS4 code for EU? I did the trick and it sent me one, claimed it and never added anything to my list to download or library. Now it just sends me an automated email saying I have it in my library instead :/

Did you check your purchase history? I found mine there, and then could add it to my download queue.

switched from ps4 to xbox one and got a code after a few attempts on the EA thing. I attempted to get a second but it seems you can only get one across all platforms.

Hmm, I can see it on my account on PC at the Sony website. Where's purchase history on the PS4? I can see for sure ti's tied to my account but no place to download it where I'm seeing it

Edit; Ok this is pretty confusing. It's in my transaction history but not my purchase history. So I guess I'm still after a PS4 EU code if anyone has a spare since this is a dead end.

Can we just make this the OP? Worked flawlessly in seconds and am downloading it now.

Can someone please spare a PC beta code? I was completely burned by the first game, wasted $100. I’m really hoping DICE has added substance to the sequel, i’d love to give it a go now while i have some time. Thank you to everyone giving out codes.
