When you redeem the code on Origin it adds the game to your games library. Just click on it and then click download.

it doesnt redeem it though it tells me to redeem it at https://www.thesims3.com/registeragame.html

Go back into Origin and it should be there in your library if you signed in with your Origin account on the Sims page.

Did you follow the directions on the humble bundle page? It's a different process than all the other games. But it does include step by step method to get it set up and working.

 

 

Instead of calling them in a couple days, just donate some more money to charity... it's for charity after all. Easier to do that than calling support.

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
Users cannot, and will not securely manage key material. Most users can't and the ones that can, wont.

Ask me about Bitcoin, Litecoin, Crypto-Currencies, and/or Mining them.
