When I go there, the only things I have available for ME2 are the CE Armor and Weapon and the Blood Armor from DA. This is after putting in the codes for both the Network and the Armor and Weapon. So it seems like the PC CE issue is that the Network codes just aren't registering properly to allow people to get their download, since Chris mentioned that PC users should get a file to download.

NOTICE TO EVERYONE WHO HAS NOT REDEEMED CEREBRUS NETWORK CODE:Chris Priestly wrote...
There seems to be some confusion by Gamestop customers when they enter their Cerberus promotion code in the activation screen.
Please do this:
Go to the Code Redemption page here: http://social.bioware.com/redeem/
Enter the Cerberus code you received from Gamespot (This applies to both PC and Xbox 360 copies)
PC Users will get a file to download and install. Please do so. Then restart the game and you will get your Cerberus activation.
Xbox 360 users DO NOT need to download the file. Simply redeem the code, restart your game and you will get access to the Cerberus network.
We hope this makes things clearer. We are adding this message to the redemption page now as well.
Just to make sure this is clear. Do not under any circumstances for the 360 put the code into the website. Put it in the game. It requires an EA Profile to be linked and if you already have an EA profile you SHOULD NOT create another one. I had an EA profile linked to a dead email from Tiger08 and I tried every password I could think of. Of course forgot password only shoots an email to your registered email.
I thought, no biggie, I will create another EA Profile to redeem my codes. Went ahead and redeemed my codes online, turned on ME2 and guess what, it asks for the code I just put in. Tells me it is already in use. Turns out you need to make sure your gamertag is associated with your profile. No problem, went ahead and tried it and it won't let me because it is already in use. EA says they can't remove a gamertag association from an EA profile either so I am 100% SOL and lost all my codes. Now it says purchase the cerebrus network for 1200 MS points. BS!
To recap: EA won't let me login into my old account with my gamertag. EA won't let me associate my new account that I had to make with my gamertag. Every code I entered in is wasted.
Not true. I had EA move my Gamertag from one EA Account to the EA Account linked to my Bioware Account.
Here's a quote from me in a similiar thread:
I hope this can clarify things for some people.
This is what I believe is how everything is tied together.
1. You have a Bioware account tied to an email address. This is your main account where all DLC is tied to.
2. You need an EA Account linked to you Bioware account. Both accounts should be the same email address and password.
3. Your Gamertag is linked to you EA Account which is linked to your Bioware Account.
Now, if you are like me; your Gamertag would've been setup using Hotmail or something back in the day.
There is no way to unlink the Gamertag and move it to you EA/Bioware email address. You can go on EA's Live Chat and have them do it for you. This is what I did. My first session dropped after 30 minutes. But the next one worked. The actual process of them changing it took 5 minutes.
I now see my Gametag under My EA Account and I see it under my Bioware Account.
I will also say that I haven't done anything with ME2 yet, so I could be getting my hopes up. However, I'm pretty sure this is how it's suppose to work.
If you don't have a Gamertag tied to any accounts yet you can go to this forum for more info -> http://social.biowar...0-766184-1.html

if you see your gamertag there is this supposed to work?
i ask this because my live account email is not the same as the bioware/ea account email....but it still says that is linked to my gamertag.

If it's linked, you're in good shape then. You might still encounter the separate Cerberus Network issue - but you won't have codes associated with the wrong account.
EDIT: And thanks for the update, Jarrett - as I said earlier I know you guys have to coordinate the fix with multiple parties, which can't be easy. Good to hear it's in progress.

I am happy for an update, but I would've been reallllly happy to not have had to wait 4 hours for someone to let us know they are aware and working on it.

Before you can link your Xbox LIVE Gamertag to your EA Master Account, you need to log in to any online EA game with your Xbox or Xbox 360. Once that is done, check your email inbox at the address you used to sign up for your Xbox LIVE Gamertag for an email from us describing what you need to do to link up your accounts.
Keep in mind, this email may not appear immediately, so be patient. Note, you can always come back to this page to re-trigger the email in case you missed it.
This is what it told me on the EA account page. My EA/Bioware emails are identical. I have the old school hotmail for my XBL GT and I can access its email.
So in order for this to work, I need to physically turn on ME2 on my 360. Then what? (btw, I have alll 3 codes waiting for me : cerb, terminus, collectors)
Am I on the right track?

Thank you sir. This simple comment right here is what makes Bioware such a top notch dev.
I got my DLC stuff worked out but the instructions are highly misleading and inaccurate.
EA/Bioware Social Network have the same Email/Username---This is key
Log on to the EA.com site with said Email/Username----Attempt to add your Xbox live Persona
If this doesn't work boot up ME2 on the Xbox 360
DO NOT ENTER the DLC code yet!!
Log into your EA/Bioware Social Network account from the in-game prompt
Go back on the web to the EA.com site
Log back into your account using the EA/Bioware Social Network Email/Username
Your Xbox live gamertag should be displayed under your persona
Head to http://social.biowar...redeem_code.php
Make sure you see your Gamertag displayed
If your gamertag is displayed you may enter in your DLC codes w/o fear

Can you just reprovide the PC CE Retail people new Cerberus keys? We can prove you we brought it new and all.

My Xbox Live email address isn't linked to this or EA account in anyway.
Would it be safest to create another Bioware social account/ EA account with my Xbox Live email address?
