BF3 weapon redemption code not working?

Remove your code from your post khare :-)

Why? Surely if anyone is stupid enough to try it it will say invalid as it's already been used.

Exactly ;)

Hello ,

Thank you for contacting Amazon.co.uk.

I am sorry for the problem caused while activating the weapons using the code. The code we have provided you is directly from the EA suppliers.

We'll be glad to help as much as we can but first we'd suggest that you consult the manufacturer to check whether this is a known issue. They'll have specialist knowledge of their own products and in many cases they may be able to diagnose and resolve the problem immediately over the telephone. They'll be able to advise you whether a repair, a replacement or a return to us is necessary.

Will contact EA later on today.
 
My code was accepted. Ive seen the change of uniform (specact kit) and Kirkland added but not really looked for the weapons. What should the weapons look like?

I've got the specact kit and back to karkand unlocked too, but the weapons should be alongside other weapons in the support class.
 
Remove your serial because people could use that when contacting EA and saying it is theirs and it has been pinched and maybe they can get your key removed from your account and onto theirs instead?
 
I pre-ordered my BF3, but I've only got the "Back to Kirkland Highschool" pack.

I'm sure on my manual it has, roughly, this line: "This serial code will also unlock Back to Karkand, when it becomes available." - Which is also the BF3 serial code.

There were another couple of leaflets too, I had to log into the GunClub to unlock an M1911 (Some sort of 'special' version, I'm sure). I got Mass Effect 3 dog-tags and Play.com gave me access to extra dog-tags also.

And that was it! D:

Did I just get ripped off somewhere along the lines?!?! Or am I missing a code?? :o

Finally got it sorted!

Right, called an EA adviser and she was helpful, gave me a new code, however it didn't unlock the weapons in game. So I called again and this time a chap answered. I told him the problem and he said "is your case number xxxxxxxxx?" I said yes and he said "ok don't look at it too long, the banana will rot"...Awkward silence for about 10 seconds and then I said "what?", he said "It was just a joke, I did it while your details loaded up in the system", another 10 seconds of awkwardness passed then I carried on telling him about the problem. So he asked where I bought the game from and I told him Amazon, it was the Limited edition one. So he went on amazon and told started reading the description and noticed it didn't say anything about the physical warfare pack (weapons pack), just about the back to karkand pack. He said it must be an UK thing, that amazon didn't include physical warfare pack, just gamestore included it in their preorders. He said he didn't mind giving me the physical warfare pack code anyway, so he sent me an email with the activation code and a 20% off next origin purchase code. He must have felt bad about the awkward joke hahaha!

Went in-game while he was still on the phone and weapons finally showed up, so all good now! I told him he was the first actually helpful EA adviser I've dealt with, and if I had any future problems I'd like him on the end of the line, he laughed and thanked me. Nice chap.

Anyway, finally sorted. If anyone has any problems with the code ring 08702432435 and just hold, it'll eventually put you through to someone. I told him that lots of people were having problems with the activation code, and he said yeah, it's a known problem and he knows exactly what it is, but didn't share details. EA for ya, full of bugs!
