There is a limit?

[mashed68]

Several of the newest codes don't work for me while they are still working for others. When I input a code I get "code activiation limit for this account reached". 

I wasn't aware there was a limit. Any idea how long before I can use codes again?

Yes, there is a limit for activation per account for a "certain time" period - like attempting a bunch over a short period of time.  What that is I'm not sure.  Many people encountered the same issue during the high volume of December codes which were passed out by CCs.  Not sure of the time limit either as to when you can "resubmit" a code.

I'll send a direct message to someone who "may" be able to give me a concrete answer.

Thank you sir. I didn't find it being talked about anywhere else so this might help a few people wondering.

'Code activation limit', IIRC, have you used the same code before? Also, I think the CC codes essentially were the same code, but I don't remember if those got accepted (but gave nothing after the first one) or if they gave the limit alert. Let's see if @HogHammer can get us that confirmation.

Actually I was able to activate all the CC codes. Even got me a mighty jingles finally, which forced me to buy warspite cause its a glorious pairing. Its the last few codes I've tried like the new years.

also look for the OP date...sometimes old ones come up you may have used before

Most codes are time limited (either a short time, like stream codes, or at most a couple days to a week). Some are limited in the number of activations (some other stream codes usually). CC codes are limited to three activations per patch.

Usually a “code activation limit reached” is one of the limited activation stream codes. Or sometimes I’ve seen it on codes that got reposted and I already used a while ago.

Yes, but the wording 'limit reached for this account' always leads me to think the code itself has not (necessarily) expired, but it's already been activated the maximum allowed times (almost certainly meaning 'once') for this account. Of course, I think it's possible that code may be both expired and/or reached it's maximum allowed use, like in the case of stream codes or limited codes, AND also already been used earlier by the player on this account.

Same problem, code wasn't used before. And we are talking here about near 10 codes...

I've seen people post the code worked for them after it did not for me. This happened after a link to a site with like a million codes and I went crazy lol.
