Watch the video, I explain how to get a free code. Mine was LEGIT. I have another account on the same PS3 but I can't play VIP maps without buying another code. No one ever let me know this. I found a way to get EA to help out their customers. Here's how to get your code. Hope Ea's can find a better solution to this issue than having to contact support.

Tim: Hi, my name is Tim. How may I help you?
999999999: I'm having an issue. My girlfriend is trying to use her account to play Bad Company 2 on my PS3 but she can't play any of the VIP maps.
Tim: Let me know that PSN id that she use to play the game?
999999999: C**************7
999999999: I'm Bratboy90
Tim: Thank you for providing me the information. Please stay online while I look into your issue.
999999999: Ok, thank you
Tim: I have looked in the records and found that no VIP code is linked with the PSN id C*************7
999999999: Yes, but on the same console on my Bratboy90 account I have it. Why would I need to buy another VIP code for her to use the VIP pack I bought the game with?\
Tim: Well the VIP code is linked with the PSN id
999999999: So even though I paid for a VIP game it doesn't matter, I have to buy another VIP code for a person on the same console. That doesn't make any sense. I was never warned that the VIP code was only for one user ID when I purchased the game. I love EA, but that is wrong.
Tim: Well this is written on the game manual that the code can only be used one
Tim: once
999999999: Correct, in the manual, so I wouldn't know that until it was too late and I had already purchased the game and opened it. Deeming the game nonreturnable.
Tim: Please allow me few minutes,
999999999: Thank You
Tim: Try this code
Tim: 6R*TA*TH*G*DMD*Q
999999999: I will right now hold on
999999999: It worked. Thank you for the support.
Tim: Is there anything else I can help you with today?
999999999: If possible please forward this issue to whomever it may concern.
999999999: No, that is all. Thank you so much. You've been great
Tim: It was my pleasure to assist you today. I would appreciate if you could take out some time to fill our customer service survey that you would receive in your email within next 24 hours.
999999999: I will. thank you
END OF CONVERSATION
For those of you wondering, yes my girlfriend can play on the VIP maps on a separate console now from mine. Her account name has been given full access to all VIP items from any PS3 just like everyone else who purchase either a code or got the Ultimate Edition.
