    I tried it now to see what happens and for me it says that this service is temporarily unavailable.I guess there are some problems currently so maybe you will have to wait for a bit.

    Is the issue just with BF3, or is it affecting your ability to log into other Origin titles?

    I'm gonna put this in large font, not to be a smart ass or anything of the sort. Doing it so anyone else experiencing this problem can see the fix for it.


    You can change it under your profile on the origin website, the origin launcher is still bugged after months. I had the same issue a couple weeks ago when I wanted to change mine. Went on the website, and bam-sha-bam, worked like a charm. Then again, I was also on the US version of the site. could be an error with the UK version.

    If you love / enjoy WoW in its current state, don't bother with my signature...with all due respect, its not for you. (note: I am happy and respectful though, of your enthrallment with WoW... if not a little envious!)
    My dirty little nefarious nautical profession secret - its where I go to get my fix

    Thanks, Orodoth. I don't have an Origin account so I can't look into it myself.

    If the issue doesn't clear up soon, you could try using one of their support avenues to hopefully get things sorted out.
