Install and login to Origin client, add Burnout Paradise to the cart and use the code "PARADISE" (with capitals)

Only works through the Origin client and it's UK only.

Tip: Also works if you use a UK VPN. Lots of people used VPN to buy BF3 without any problem.

I'm not able to login when I have Expact running though.

It says my login information is incorrect... even though I know it isn't.

This is such a great game. If you don't have it yet, it's well worth it. Best racing game I've ever played. This game convinced no fewer than six of my friends that video games could be fun.

WHo wants to know the easy way to get it?

Simply reinstall Origin, the first time you log in you'll get the Pop up and get the game(s) for free. Did it on 3 accounts so far, no problem :)

I remember getting it free from a mistake on their site round about last xmas. Installed it. Never played it. Uninstalled the EA download manager when it told me it was switching to origin.

Done the same thing with BF3, the game was in Euros for me, used a VPN from mexico, bought it in dollars trhough Paypal and had no issues, i've only seen cases of the game being deleted for people who used a VPN and then used a credit card from another country.

ok so heres the deal. i was originally getting the Payment Authorisation Failed error, but i got past it. i was either clever or lucky, but heres what i did.

i made sure i filled out details and selected paypal for payment, and THEN i applied the code. if you apply the code first, the system bypasses the payment details and that might be the cause of the problem. once i selected paypay for payment, then applied the code, the site accepted that it was a free deal, and didnt ask me for any payment deals and accepted the purchase.

try this if you are getting the same payment authorised failed error :)

if that works for ya, gift me a game or something :P

enjoy! hope that helps fix the problems some people were having ;)

How I did it:
Install Expat Shield,
Open(make sure it's off before launching ES) Origin,
Search for Burnout,
Click "Add to Cart",
Click "Check-Out",
Scroll to the bottom of the window and enter the promo code where it says "Promo Code",
Click Apply,
Fill out fake info that relates to me living in the UK,
Continue,
Continue again on the page where it just shows the things you entered,
Uninstall ES.

Anyway, thanks for the heads-up, man.
